Shooting the .50
Posted on July 19, 2012 by Natalie in just for fun, Natalie's Blog, Video
On the final day of the Girls Gun Getaway, the remaining few got a chance to shoot a .50 caliber Serbu rifle. It was the first time for many of us and as you can see below, there was giddy anticipation paired with the teensiest, tiniest bit of trepidation. For those of you who are new or who have never seen a .50 caliber rifle before, this is what they look like:
The Serbu .50 cal as modeled by the amazing and talented Julie Golob. (See what I mean by giddy anticipation?)
And this is the round it requires:
Not at all intimidating. Not in the least.
Good times. Some of the other girls shot the .50 as well. These are probably my favorite action shots of the whole weekend:
Lacey Duffy from NRAWomen.tv shows us how it is done.
Annette Wachter (30 cal gal) is a seasoned pro. This is nothing new to her.
Gabby from Armed Candy was just as wowed as I was.
For Marti Davis, our resident pro hunter and Womens Outdoor News contributor, this was just a walk in the park. This chick knows how to shoot a rifle.
You make it look so fun. Thanks for coming to the first annual GGG. It would not have been the same without you here … when will you be running the Walmart trip in “The Grove?”
