Shotgun section complete

Well, I finished the shotgun section, and I'm glad to see the back of it. The sections on pumps and autos was fine, but the pivot barrel guns were presented kind of haphazardly. Bob Dunlap was really all over the place and he kept jumping back and forth. I wouldn't be surprised if I didn't pass that section.

The test packet has been mailed off and I'll just keep my fingers crossed.

Progress Report 6/28/2011

Not much has changed. Still working on the revolvers section. Naturally,  single-action revolvers are pretty simple and straightforward. Double-actions are a bit more complicated, but not confusing. The problem lies in their fussiness. There is so much linkage twixt click and bang that they get out of alignment/timing very easily. And when you adjust something at the clicky-end, it throws something off at the bangy-end.

Give me a pistol any day of the week.

Progress Report 6/20/2011

I've completed the sections on DA, SA, and striker pistols. I'm starting the sections on revolvers now.

I really wish I had started this path 10 years ago.

My only complaint is that the videos from AGI are really old. They transferred them from VHS tape to DVD, and the audio gets sketchy in places.

Progress Report 6/15/2011

Finished the SA pistol section. Ended up going through it three times to make sure I got all of the nuances. This has taken 2 weeks so far and I'm only on disc 2. I have dozens of discs to go!
