I don't recall ever having a major argument with her (she is the saint, not me). She is 4.5 years older than me and I had to go through the same HS and the teachers expected a lot out of me. Boy were they disappointed. I did well enough on tests that I knew just how much homework I could not do and still pass my classes. Later, as she applied for her CCW she was able to keep her group fist sized at 15 yards with all three handguns used for the class. She even preferred the .45ACP.

I used to think it sucked having a "perfect" sister. I now see how lucky I was.
I have one of those too (oldest), but she won't touch a gun. So I have her there.
