This is a switch

My wife took an advanced handgun class this weekend and, good wife that she is, she stayed after and filled the side pockets of her range bag with brass. Typically, after these classes, the majority of brass is 9mm with a smattering of 40 and 45. This time at least half is a mix of 40 and 10mm. Even more oddly, apparently no one in the Handgun I class the day before picked up anything. My wife quit when she got tired and ran out of room not when the brass was gone. I would have gone back up the next morning but we got a few inches of snow on top so it wouldn't have been a good morning. Oh, yeah, there was that work thing too.

Is she hosting an awesome wife classes in the near future? Love my girl but there is always room for improvement (she'd say the same so I don't have to feel guilty haha)

Congratulations on having a wife with one of the finest qualities! My wife not only collects the brass, she sorts and cleans. Fine qualities in a woman! This is her work area.
