The Way I See It!

I am an Ultra-Conservative, Alpha-Male, True Authentic Leader, Type "C" Personality, who is very active in my community; whether it is donating time, clothes or money for Project Concern or going to Common Council meetings and voicing my opinions. As a blogger, I intend to provide a different viewpoint "The way I see it!" on various world, national and local issues with a few helpful tips & tidbits sprinkled in.

Next, we learned about the Cudahy Police duty weapon, the Heckler & Koch USP 40cal pistol.

 

We took a test on the nomenclature of the handgun.  This was important to know before the hands-on gun firing.

 

We went in two at a time.  I have been shooting before, but it has been awhile.  Some people thought the gun had big recoil.  I thought it had a little, but shooting my dad’s 44 Mag or 357 were what I had to measure it by. 

 

I did very well.  Had the first shot in the head of the target and a good grouping in the chest.  Everyone did very well and safety was always the most important thing.
