When I got they oiled it for me and I got 10 rounds through it. It was so exciting that I decided it was safer to put it down for then. I've wanted a handgun for as long as I can remember, I'm 31 so its been a while. So I'll admit I was also nervous about using a gun with out a safety, aside from the brain safety. Between that and shooting a more powerful shot than a .22 it was a pretty awesome moment. So I used the brain safety and decided that it was time to pack up and come home so I didn't over excite and stop thinking.
That being said we field stripped and cleaned it as per the manual, my dad has been around guns for a long time so we did it together, then put it away. Since then I have been doing small practicing with changing empty mags, getting a feel for the trigger pull, stances and holding it. Sadly I take care of my mother who is bed bound and is not really into guns so until my dad gets back I'm pretty much stuck on reading duty. But I have gone through all the paperwork a few times and I'm doing what reading I can online about the gun, well Glocks. I found an old copy of the Armorer's Manual so I'm going through that a few times too.
I'm planning on getting my ear and eye safety ordered Monday so that should be here before I go out next. Hate using other peoples glass and muffs. As of now I'm looking at the Oakley ones with the stamped rating and not sure about the muffs but probably something with the mic. If all works out right, I'll be out shooting next sunday, not tomorrow sunday, and I plan on putting some rounds through it. Range out here is $12 no time limit so gonna take my time learning it.
