Getting Acquainted

kiyakotariLearning my way around the Bobcat. Read half-way through the manual (again - I already had a copy from the internet, which I read a week and a half ago), then field-stripped it. Surprisingly easy to do. So tiny! Fits my hands perfectly, which is a nice change from the other guns I've handled. And I was right - the random spare clip I have is the one made by Beretta for this gun. Which makes me grin - it was fate, apparently, for this to be my first.
I should be sleeping right now, since I work tonight, but I'm going to spend some more time familiarizing myself with the gun. Because, you know. Excited.
I guess this means my pistol-owning cherry has well and truly been popped. ^_______^
(I'm also surprised by how FAST the check with ATF cleared. It's supposed to take 7-14 days. I filled out the paperwork after noon on Wednesday, and the dealer called me today to tell me I was good to go and to come pick up my gun. @_@ That's only three days. Just under a week from ordering to having the gun in my hands, and that's without a CCW, because I haven't gotten one yet.)
