Maggie’s THE "NOM NOM NOM" THREAD

Buisy day? Not much fresh in fridge.
We got your back.

1 can of chili no beans
1 can of red chili "enchilada" sauce.
Mix and heat till bubbling, done.

1 bag (dozen) of tamales, this time I had hatch green chillies and cheddar cheese, preferably steamed.

Garnish green onions and cilantro if you have it. Cheese cotija if available any really you like on Tex Mex.

None of this is a big mess or time consuming pita. You can spike it with any pepers you want I had salsa handy.

Stretch it with some plain rice works well.

Let's talk about youth packages and training

I've really been looking at a build like this. Honestly my problem is I'm not sure if she will stick with it yet, so I will probably put her in something cheap like a ruger, or keystone. If she sticks with it more then a year I can hand down whatever she is shooting to her brother and build her something to really get serious with.
Most of the replies have been exactly what I was looking at. But with my new build this year and theirs.........I really want to just keep it cheap until I see if they stick to it.

I know there are a lot of options and lots of opinions, but for my kids and their friends the ruger precision rimfire is a great option. It's a good enough option to feel like they are shooting real guns and accurate enough to reward them. I have a bunch of the youth 22lr out there (cz scout, keystone, ruger 10/22, and others) and the ruger precision rimfire is the top choice.

If you buy her a cheap gun and she doesn’t stick with it, you’ll have a cheap gun. But, if you buy a nice gun and she doesn’t stick with it, you’ll still have a nice gun. And, nice guns make shooting more enjoyable. They’re also more likely to be more precise, and hitting your target is better than not. The irony of pretty much every skilled persuit is that really good tools disproportionately benefit noobs.

My vote is a Kidd Supergrade…
