    I'll support Wally if you can give me three and a half reasons to do so.

    As for the handgun I tried a Berreta Storm and Berreta 91FS. I preferred the 91 over the Stofm because of the light weight, low recoil, and accuracy.
    Sweet! Yeah, it's funny how you could buy guns for personal protection and then it kind of can turn into a hobby. :P

    It's fun watching what a few slug shotgun shells can do a target. Those things can really rip it apart! And yeah, needless to say, that is NOT something I would want to get hit with.

    Yeah and each different she'll type has a different type of spread just each shotgun is a bit different. The range we shot from was a bit more intimidating than I thought too. Luckily I almost won (it was a $10 entry and I would have won a $100 Walmart gift card xD. Oh well it was still fun!

    My dad is crazy knowledgable about this gun stuff. So he's been trying to teach me, but I still have a bit of a hard time. It is something we should all learn though with how things are today.

    The time is upon us...

    I've been learning quite a bit about guns lately. They may seem very intimidating at first to people, but once you've been trained on the basics, tried firing it at the range, and learn about all the parts, it's really not a big deal. But yeah, I think everyone should just try it at least once to flush out the nonsense that movies, video games, and the media have stuffed in everyone's heads. If people still aren't crazy about them after that, then it's fine, but I think people can be very judgmental about them without giving learning a chance.

    As for the shooting contest, better luck next time. You came close, so definitely don't pass up on the next opportunity!

    @Neo Emolga well I don't think they host it anymore sadly. They got into some trouble a few years back after a year or so when I went. So too bad, but I don't think I'll be able to other than practicing on some of our land with it now. I think I'd prefer than handgun to the shotgun though. Though in a self defense type situation like life or death. A shotgun leaves less chance of that other person walking out...or ever walking again for that matter.

    Yeah, if I were to practice shooting on my backyard, people would call the cops. That's the problem with living in sleepy suburbia.

    Problem is, if they walk out, they could sue or press charges. I also don't want them shooting back at me either. If they take a pistol bullet to the shoulder, they could still fight. There's also quite a few other places where they could take it and still not go down (getting shot in the butt, as funny as it might sound, is actually the safest place to get hit). With a shotgun blast, they're down and they're not going to keep fighting after getting hit with something like that.

    Though honestly, I REALLY hope I don't ever have to use it for that purpose. It's like a fire extinguisher. You don't get one hoping a fire happens...

    ...I saw a policeman with a rifle when I visited London once!!

    Seriously though, does it not scare you guys that so many people have guns in the US? I honestly don't think that I would leave the house if it was like that here, 90% of people in the UK are too irresponsible/stupid to own one safely.
