Got some nice groupings for a nearly elderly guy. Elderly at 65? Not in my book.
I'll be 75 next week and I still shoot a lot on my backyard "gun range" (I live on a few acres way out in the boonies). In fact I was out there today shooting my latest acquisition, a tiny Keltec .380 semiauto that's about the size of the tiny old Colt/Browning .25acp pocket pistols and weighs only 8 ounces believe it or not. I shot at least one 10 round 3" group @ 7 yards distance, which IMHO isn't all that bad for that little-bitty popgun and my old eyes. That won't win any matches, but it would absolutely ruin a BG's day.

Elderly at 65? Not in my book. I was being factitious.
Wish I could do that with my Airweight. It's just for close work. However, as a plus it is reliable and idiot proof.

Hi, SuziQ:
Your daughter is very wise.
It is a very ‘Benny Hill’ moment when the wannabe gangstas jam up at the door. Couldn’t have been choreographed better if they tried!

In my home State of California, the Democrats in Sacramento, elected by the Useful Idiots, are doing everything they can do to disarm Law Abiding Citizens.Seeing this video might just steel those law abiding citizens against this gun grab by the Dems.

I would build a tastefully concealed corridor leading into the store that had remote controlled locking doors, power closing assisted as well, and it would be bulletproof, robbers either coming or going will caught in this corridor and then taken away like a vermin rat in a trap. I did a lot of work over the years for SFPD. They had an entrance into their communications room like that. You pick up the phone outside, ask to come in, and once in the corridor you're trapped. You get the lookover, via bulletproof glass and video, more confirmation before allowed to go through the second door. I always thought it would be nice to build that into my house.
