Does it have to be a pistol?
Not at all. I'm just collecting ideas for now, open to any suggestions as long as it's semi-auto and can mount optics.
I'm still not understanding how difficulty lining up sights translates to a hole in the ceiling.
The high shot wasn't accidentally straight up or anything ridiculous like that. The impact was much further downrange than the target, which I think was 7 or 10 yards out.
During that shot I was watching downrange and had her in my peripheral vision, so I didn't see exactly what happened. Based on talking to her and a range officer there, I think it was caused by several mistakes stacked on top of each other:
- Poor vertical sight alignment
- Heavy trigger pull
- Shot anticipation and flinching
I have no indication at this time that she wouldn't be able to significantly improve her abilities with some consistent practice with the right firearm.
