So my wife wants my 308

We are working on her form. She was also taking her finger off the trigger between shots. But thank you.

It definitely takes some time and practice to learn to control the trigger on a semi auto pistol. The longer pull, follow through and reset are certainly different. I’ve learned a lot from doing sporting clays and pistol lessons for women. They are easier to teach. They are very tenacious and quick learners. They soak up instruction like a sponge and retain it well. Plus they have certain motor skills and control that tend to make them very good shots in general. Many women will outshoot their husbands once they catch on. Be prepared for that. One of the best pistols I found for working with women, kids, or pretty much anyone was a Browning Buckmark or Ruger bull barreled target pistol in 22LR.

Around 10 years ago, my daughter-in-law and I went shooting one day. She's an avid shooter and there were no instructions required. She started shooting my Anschutz 54 and couldn't put it down. It went home with her. When ever she's at a range in different parts of the world, she always sends me a photo of her shooting it. My son and her should be retiring from the military in about 2 years. Maybe I'll be able to shoot it again. I know I won't get it back, but she might let me shoot it.
