FG sent a sixteen-second long YouTube video that shows the level of firearms competence that a 13 year-old girl is capable of. (The pinging noises are hits.) Are your teenagers her equal? If not, then get them to the range more often, and schedule some training!

Frequent content contributor FG sent this news of “Clunkers” program that I agree with: Purchase a new SIG-Sauer P220, P226, P229, 1911, SIG556 pistol, or SIG556 rifle from your dealer’s inventory before November 30th, 2009, and SIG-Sauer will give you $200 for your old “Klunker” pistol or revolver.
