Lots of guys. There’s a gun/knife/cool shit sub forum. I think you need to hit a certain number of posts to access it.

Guns are dangerous.

Stupid people are dangerous regardless of what's in their hands. My motto is 'assume stupid until proven otherwise'. Especially important when driving and walking through parking lots.

Sounds like you need some laws to protect yourself and others around you!!
Was that wrong? Should I not have done that?

Laws are a start but, it’s my job to protect myself, plus it’s a constitutional right.

Try riding motorcycles ... just assume they want to kill you, or at least really don't mind if they do ;)

Constitution? So you are in the U.S. It sounds like you are in a free state? Good for you! Flex that constitutional muscle, use it or lose it!
Don't be like castrated Massholes or the likes and lose your right to keep and bare arms, even worse kommifornia, a once beautiful free place..now a land where you have to be undocumented (illegal alien= FK trying to do things the right way) to have rights. PUKE

Since there is a bit of good-natured grabassery and yanking of your chain going on, I'll offer a serious reply:

There are some real shooters on this board.

I am, myself, a real shooting dilettante... I hope to aspire to true poser/wannabe status once I get the required carbine and "team entry tactics for civilians" class under my belt... ;)

but yeah, I do own "moar gunz," as do numerous members. Keep posting... but not just for gun subfora access; it's proven that a high DWC post count is good for your health.

(Fucks up your wallet, though)

Damn, I just had a look out of curiosity: the G, K & F subforum has 1197 topics and 30 pages of bullshit in it. Who knew?

I do enjoy shooting IDPA matches and steel challenges, but I suck at it :cheers:

This year I want to attend to some pistol and rifle classes. And if (big if) I'm able to save some money, I plan to get a Remington 700 for some long range shooting (i.e. playing sharpshooter).

Nice. I'm been looking at the Savage 10T-SR and 10BA for the range. Waiting for them to go on sale.

Dudes: I know this isn’t at all what you asked, but for playing sharpshooter, check out the new Ruger precision rimfire. Feels like a full-size gun, and with the glass to get you there and decent ammo, it’s by all reports one hole at 100. A bunch of guys in my neck of the woods have bought them and rave. Can’t argue with either the cost of entry, or the long term costs. The glass will be the biggest hurdle on that fun kit.
