This year I had the wonderful opportunity to attend the annual Media Shootout hosted by the Ingham County Sheriff's Office. Thank you so much to the Sheriff and all the men and women of the department for having us out yesterday!

During the media shootout, I was able to shoot a department issue Sig Sauer .40 cal handgun. Before this, I have only ever shot a pistol, or any gun for that matter, just one other time... so I did lack a bit of experience. Especially compared to Christ Tyler, my co-hort for the day! He's been to the Media Shootout several times before. No matter, I was excited to give it a try!

The instructors were so amazing, a big thanks out to them again for helping me with my shot!. All in all, it was a wonderful learning experience and I think I did pretty well for my second time ever shooting a gun. Check out the pictures below!
