FRONTIER JUSTICE

Yesterday I experienced 'Frontier Justice.'  Frontier Justice is best described on their own website:
Frontier Justice is a one-of-a-kind company that not only provides a next generation firearms training facility, but also offers a unique retail experience that combines a hint of the west in an urban setting with apparel, jewelry and home furnishings. Frontier Justice firmly believes in faith, family and freedom while promoting personal responsibility. To fulfill this mission all products, training classes and services are offered for the entire family, regardless of age, ethnicity or gender.

Yesterday I visited a YARN SHOP in the Kansas City area in order to sell buttons. This shop has been a customer of my mine for nearly a decade.  The owner of the shop is a great guy with a great sense of humor. It is always fun to visit. This time, during my visit, we started discussing one of his passions - guns, and gun collecting. In my entire life I do not remember ever touching a gun. I have definitely never handled a loaded weapon. That changed last evening as my friend, Robert invited me to the shooting range at Frontier Justice.


I have always been a person that supported the 2nd Amendment - The Right to Bear Arms. Last night was my first experience exercising my right as an American to handle a firearm and learn how to use it.  I experienced the thrill of firing three different weapons.  I fired a 9 caliber Glock, a 44 caliber Sig and a 44 caliber Ruger. I learned first hand what recoil was and was flabbergasted by the power of these weapons.  I will never watch a gun fired in a TV show or movie again in quite the same way. We were shooting at the target from 15 feet and 20 feet and I did pretty well until I started firing the 44 caliber gun. The recoil of that gun really shocked me and I found it much more difficult to keep my aim steady as I fired. I had always thought that it would be fun to visit a gun range - and I was correct - it was a blast.
