The crisp sound of gunfire continued, and shell casings fell beside Martin as the Glock's magazine emptied and the electronic target reported the score.
Bruce glanced over, signaled for Martin to remove his earplugs, and said, "Not bad at all!"
Martin changed the magazine: "Last time, my shooting improved a lot after I shot that old black guy's ass off."
Bruce analyzed, "A successful real-life experience enhances confidence."
He picked up an AR and led Martin to a different shooting station: "Try this, the most common rifle in America, very different from handguns and shotguns."
Martin checked the gun, which was obviously semi-automatic, and asked, "I heard it's easy to convert into fully automatic?"
Bruce nodded, "Just add a bump fire stock, but you don't need to worry about that; semi-automatic is enough for your use."
Martin followed Bruce's instructions and fired a whole magazine, feeling that for home defense, a shotgun would be more suitable.
