Slowing it down to get it

Posted on October 17, 2023October 17, 2023 by pewpewturtlegirl

(10/10/2023) Again i find myself on YouTube. came across 50 Round Drills so I’ve been working on the very first part— the lower and reset one. I’ve also started tracking exactly (at the end of the mag) where everything is going. theres fly aways. But generally I’m grouping a bit more

Support hand ftw

Posted on September 28, 2023September 28, 2023 by pewpewturtlegirl

Today I tried something new. Tacticool GF released a video on what you’re supposed to do with your non dominant hand when shooting. Pretty much, it drives while your trigger hand is focused on pulling the trigger. Well, damn if that didn’t fix my lower left issue! still working on how I position myself in…

Little Tweaks on a pretty girl

Posted on September 16, 2023September 16, 2023 by pewpewturtlegirl

Trying out a couple of tweaks with the hope it might help me . Let’s start with. Talon Grip tape There’s a possibility that under live fire, the firearm is slipping so hopefully this will help. Am looking at some Lox Grips if this doesn’t change a ton The next thing i did, I’ve noticed…

Shotgun Alley (but for short people)

Posted on September 8, 2023September 18, 2023 by pewpewturtlegirl

Shotguns are cool. Don’t know why I feel this way, just do. I’ve always wanted one, had to be a pump action, and now I do. But here’s the thing— I’m 5’4 and weigh under 100 pounds. That makes shotguns difficult. The youth models are a hair awkward, but the grown up models are too,…

Improvements

Posted on September 3, 2023September 3, 2023 by pewpewturtlegirl

Wasn’t sure how much those dry fires and advice would actually translate to the range. May I eat my words/doubts. Is it perfect? Nope. Is it a crap ton better than it was? Oh yeah. I’m over my thoughts of just working on my tan. Besides, I’d just get a burn and peel anyway. And…

The Pink Rhino

Posted on September 3, 2023September 3, 2023 by pewpewturtlegirl

There are so many options out there for trying to figure out what you are doing with a gun. Pink Rhino is a dry fire snap cap that when the firing pin strikes the back of this nifty little thing, it lights up a laser for just a second. Now I’m cheap. There are little…

If at first you don’t succeed

Posted on September 3, 2023September 3, 2023 by pewpewturtlegirl

I, I don’t even know what happened here. See, i was sure i had things going in the right direction. I was low center, so obviously i needed to work on my sighting. It’s the two dot system on the M9, so clearly I wasn’t used to that before. know how they say try and…

Getting to Know You

Posted on August 27, 2023August 28, 2023 by pewpewturtlegirl

I had this vision in my mind that now that I had Betts, learned a little bit more on how to hold a firearm, and played with those dummies that the clouds were going to part and the gun fairies were going to steer all of my rounds into a pretty, well-formed group right in…

I Own a Firearm. Now What?

Posted on August 27, 2023August 28, 2023 by pewpewturtlegirl

Sleek, shiny, cold metal. And it’s mine. I want to fidget with it, “play” with it, get comfortable with how all the parts go together; but I don’t want to shoot my eye (or anything else) out. What’s a girl to do? Well, obviously it’s go shopping! Pop open the Amazon app and, with no…

New Range, New Day

Posted on August 25, 2023August 28, 2023 by pewpewturtlegirl

Turns out, closer to me is a different range, Magnum Range in Rancho Cucamonga, so figured it was worth a try. Also figured it was worth a shot (ha) to try a different 9mm. I go up, asked to try the Beretta 92FS, and— pout— it was out of service. Like a sommelier recommending a…
