I showed up thinking I was pretty decent, then watched a 70-year-old woman in a sundress outshoot me with iron sights while I was struggling with my red dot. She was putting them all in a 2-inch group at 25 yards like she was knitting. I couldn't even keep them on paper. Sometimes you need that ego check to remember you've still got work to do

From experience of over 50 years of shooting, women always make the best shooters without exception.
 
With an extensive military experience and a few years of serious plinking, I bought a new 1911 and took it and this young redheaded girl (who soon became Mrs. Flash) with me to the range. I demonstrated it for her by putting four of seven in the black at twenty yards. I loaded eight for her and she immediately popped six of eight in the black, and a much tighter group.

Yeah, my experience goes right along with yours, guys.

This is absolutely beautiful! Say hi to Mrs. Flash for us.
