A lefty 👍🏻 I am too. My brother is. I switched my 92 myself but I'm not handy. Cute cat btw. We need women into firearms. My wife is scared of guns before and after we went to the range but she knows how important weapons are here in america.
I grew up shooting guns and I was in the US military for 5 years so I’m comfortable around them but my wife used to be deathly afraid of guns. I took her to a gun range one day and she had a blast. Now she will ask me when our next gun range trip will be lol
I've been talking to every woman I know (including coworkers) about arming themselves, I really use myself as an example for a what if scenario because I am a large guy that is rather built, and I ask them what they could do without a firearm against someone my size, that usually convinces them to at LEAST get a FOID card (I live in the ingloriously corrupt state of illinois)
Maybe if you guys went to a free outdoor range. They are usually around state parks, at least in my state anyway. They were made so hunters can safely ensure their guns are sighted in before hunting in the forest/woods of the parks. One that I go to sometimes has no one there or very few people show up while I’m there. You sometimes can’t find them on a map either. If she could plink stuff with a .22 rifle that would be fun or a PCC maybe. You may have tried these things but I do know for someone that hasn’t been around guns, a busy range or even an indoor range can be a little much for them. Being out in nature with just yourselfs and your guns plinking stuff at will would be the best way to make it fun though.
Good job, Talia. Here’s a tip that’ll help you tighten up your groups. Pull your support hand rearward and push your firing hand forward at the same time. Tighten your grip holding the pistol. Those 2 tips will help you control the recoil and tighten your groups. Also, focus on your stance. Your right foot heel should be even with the toes of your left foot. Both feet should be shoulder width apart. Knees slightly bent. Upper body squared up with the target. By using these tips, you’ll see a dramatic improvement.
Good shooting. I would suggest a different grip to help keep that muzzle down. Love seeing you kids getting into the hobby. Most people now adays recommend both thumbs on the left side gripping the fingers of the right hand, tightly. Honest Outlaw has an excellent example of what is considered the best way to grip a pistol on his channel.
@@TaliaCiana I can vouch for the Maglula’s if you’re loading a lot of cartridges. I took part in a two-day advanced combat pistol course some years ago where each participant fired some 750 rounds total; we had been advised beforehand to get a Maglula. I was only one of two or three who did so, and during the first day, we were zipping through the mag loading process while the others were complaining of sore thumbs and fingers. The next day, we all had Maglula’s 😁
The first two shots are most critical for self defense shooting, try it out and practice. Center mass shots, not head shots. Glad to see you are getting some good practice.😊
Is this out of sequence? You pay by the hour. Have your mags loaded before you get there. (And have a speed loader of some kind to help get more shooting in).
Very cool, maybe after a few hundred more practice rounds, you might consider getting into IDPA since that can help with learning defensive shooting scenarios
I love these videos and I have a small tip. Maybe do some shorts showcasing these videos then put them in the related video? Such as small clips from them? ❤
You use a holster?, I use clip draw... and while I am a lefty also, it can be used on either side of the firearm (for a left or right draw), it also prints less while I carry due to the lack of a holster, but to each their own
I LOVE working with left handed shooters! They can just mirror my movements because we can face each other while still pointing our muzzles in the same direction. Also, with some technical adjustments, you can manipulate a "right handed" pistol just as easily/quickly as a righty. But, there are plenty of ambidextrous designs out there nowadays.
It is typical in shooting situations for there to be a lot of hits to the hands. We see a weapon, we tend to focus on it, so we will naturally shoot the hands as a result; training can help overcome this tendency and help focus on center mass/ head. Still, you were center mass on the hands, so that is good.
Thank you guys for all your support!! Thank you for the comments and subscribing, it helps my channel a lot. More videos to come 😃
Range day is always a good day! Thank you for sharing.
Nice work with a tight grouping. Glad to see this generation at the range.
The last string you managed the recoil better. The more you practice the better the groups will get.

@@JR-yn4cu that would be great. I looked for one and found some in our town.
God bless America 🇺🇸 🤓 you just earned another subscriber with this one 🎅

I like that carnival target.
Very nice, leggings are cool!
Get yourself a mag loader!!! You can even get them in colors. Called a maglula
@@MrJayharr58 Gonna have to check that out

@@billstein2 yep, we did some just for practice and for the video. 👍

Range day is always a good day!
Cool vid. I like these kinds of range vids, should do more and show progress. :))
Definitely! I plan to make another video
I just got done shooting my targets I made my plate rack an a few others
Great job. Keep training.
Saludos desde la República Dominicana excelente vídeo
Great video, Talia...👍
Good job, keep practicing
Good job, practice makes perfect.
Nice hits on the bad guy target.👍😎🇺🇸
Very nice, young lady. Keep up the great work!

Thank you for the tip! I appreciate it.
@@TaliaCiana ofc thank you for the amazing content!
2:56 say cheese 🧀 😁
Awesome!

And how is the trigger protected?
Elbows up. Lean slightly forward.
Elbow don't matter. Forward lean helps a lot
Left handed shooters... Why are we punished with higher priced firearms?
I LOVE working with left handed shooters! They can just mirror my movements because we can face each other while still pointing our muzzles in the same direction.

Because you ruin mass production
Because you are sinister. 😜
leftie here too good job
So pretty
why her arm bent inward like that
That recoil seems like making the shot hard to aim.
It is typical in shooting situations for there to be a lot of hits to the hands. We see a weapon, we tend to focus on it, so we will naturally shoot the hands as a result; training can help overcome this tendency and help focus on center mass/ head. Still, you were center mass on the hands, so that is good.
Blue label ?
You have a beautiful voice. You need to work in radio or do voice-acting or something lol. 😂 Good shooting.
@JustSomeGuy69420 Thank you! Voice acting would be so cool!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Why do you low key look like jeanette mccurdy
👍
Awesome you live in a state that allows 18 YO to own a pistol.
