...... I guess that makes my daughters exceptional ..... the two that shoot are much more comfortable, and more effective, with a 20 guage than any centerfire handgun.
You might add this little card trick with each weapon (handgun, shotgun (with standard velocity buckshot) and the rifle: Cover a silhouette hanging at 7 yards with glued on playing cards, highest cards in the middle, with no spaces in between. Start at low ready, and at the command to fire, hit the target return button (so that the silhoutte "rushes" the shooter) ..... cease fire at 1 yard. Shooter gets to make a poker hand out of cards with holes, highest hand wins ...... my money's on the shotgun ( You may want to get a picture before you shoot the shotgun stage, as some cards may be completely missing).
They may not be pleasant to shoot, or precise, but for close range self defense, they are very effective, even in novice hands ......
