on Sunday. The High Standard shot well, right to the point of aim, nice well centered groups. The only problem was that the pistol would lock the slide back after each shot. Turned out that the tiny spring that holds the slide lock in the off position was missing. When we got home, I ordered a replacement from Numrich (Gun Parts Co.). Once that is in place, all will be well with the world! My son's girlfriend went with us to the range. She had never fired a gun before so I took along a Colt Police Positive Target in .22 rf. It is a small frame revolver that is suitable for smaller hands. After the obligatory talk about gun safety rules and how to use the sights, she proceeded to shoot a couple of reasonable groups and even knock over a couple of steel plates. A good time was had by all.
