She has upgraded from a 22 to a 223

My 13 year old niece has been shooting with me for about four years now. I bought her a 22 rifle when she was 9. Today she was asking if she could shoot something bigger. She said she wants to shoot the AR. We went over the rifle at home and then headed out to shoot. She shot like a champ. burning up pop cans and rotten hedge apples. After shooting a couple 30 round mags she let me know that this was now HER rifle. haha

You let her claim your AR? You're a good Uncle.

She needs to work on her firing stance...

I have noticed the majority of women shoot like that. However, they are surprisingly accurate.

Not 100% true. My sister has a great stance, and is very accurate too. Then again she was in the military...

Wonder why they do that? My wife does the same thing at first. Works well enough with the .22.

Isn't it great being the fun uncle? I'm looking forward to when my nephew turns 5. Hopefully by then he will be ready for some more serious fishing and intro to bb/pellet guns and possibly some .22 time.

Good job uncle. But seriously, fix that stance. Its okay for .22, but she's running a fighting rifle, she needs to get into a fighting stance.

Once again, outstanding dude.

get her a 15-22 and call it a day

This was her first time with an AR, she did fine. She's not in the military, she's in cheerleading. lol

Some would argue that the two are more similar than you think!

But you're an awesome uncle!

You're right. She's busts her butt cheerleading. She cheers for her school and is in national cheer competitions. She is a member of the Fierce Allstars. I feel sorry for anyone who tells her that cheering is not a sport. I'm very proud of her for the well rounded young lady she has become. She is a student ambassador and a state rep for her school. She maintains A-B honor roll and still finds time to shoot with her uncle. Love that kid!
