I also learned, that after showing a 60+ year old lady how to shoot steel plates at 10 yards with her .38 S&W snub-nose - hitting 4/5 plates in DA mode - that some ladies learn so quickly that they will then shoot 5/5 plates also in DA, totally destroying their instructor

Oh, yeah, almost forgot - it's possible to miss a B27 man-sized target with a scoped Ruger Redhawk .44 Mag - with all 6 shots at 7 yards.

My 30 something DIL doesn't have the finger strength to even pull the trigger on a snubbie (concealed hammer).

Sounds like 1911 time for her (.45ACP or 9mm).

The other shooters decide to call a cease fire. Everyone calls safe, except this guy, who gets yelled at. "Sir? Sir? Cease fire? Sir?" He's still snuggled up into the buttstock, looking down the scope. Finally somebody walks over to him and loudly asks if they can get a cease fire. BOOM! he lets a shot off, falls off the bench...he'd fallen asleep! He packed up and left then and there.
