Not many new doubles with twin triggers. SST has taken over. That helps with accidental doubling. I actually had a guy at the range one day that thought you were supposed have a finger on each trigger. He said "why not"? So I just let him use that position and told him to fire. He quickly saw the logic.

Where is her ear protection!? :mad:

Where is her eye protection!? :mad:

She was holding the shotgun far too high on her shoulder. That should have sent up red flags! :mad:

That girl will probably fear guns for the rest of her life because some jack@$$ didn't understand/teach proper gun safety. :mad:

Lighten up Legion :D She does not appear to be the type to want to persue a hobby of playing with guns. No doubt the guy who let her squeeze one off without having the stock firmly planted where it is supposed to be is a moron, but I have no issue with the fact that she did not have ear protection for squeezing off one round. Folks like me who occasionaly use a shotgun or .22 rifle to blast a back yard varmint and most hunters who are out in the field do not wear ear protection (I do wear protection when firing my handguns, AR15 and shotgun if I am shooting clays). An occasional shotgun blast never made anyone I know go deaf. Shooting handguns, short barrelled high power rifles or blasting away a few boxes of shotgun shells shooting clay pigeons surely warrants ear protection if one wants to protect their hearing, but in the real world where people use their guns for what they are often intended for, most do not worry about a couple blasts of a shotgun once in a while.

I like how he braces her head to maximize the impact, nice!

One of the main rules forgotten by the trainer: Unless you are ready to fire, do not keep your index finger on the trigger!

How many times did she look away with her finger on the trigger????!!!!

I was thinking more like PUT THE BUTT AGAINST YOUR SHOULDER HONEY!

My 7 year old daughter at the range. Note the trigger discipline. Something that gal in the movie was also lacking.
