No. This isn't about sex. It's about guns.
Hell yeah!
I'm off to a shooting range to shoot... guns... I think.
We're going with a group of friends. One of them's hobby is shooting (he owns a Magnum... When he first told us that, I thought he was on about an ice-cream) and we're joining him. ON THE RANGE!!
I hope the targets have little pictures of conservative Christians on them. That would motivate me endlessly.
So, I'm practicing cocking my head and whispering in a course voice: "Go ahead punk, make my day."
BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG
"Did I just fire five times or six." (actually, reading the bang bang bit back, it's half as cool as in the film.. but you get the jist).
Any bets?
I bet I'm gonna be the sharpest shooter on the range!!
WOO HOOOO
If it's the first time you've shot a pistol, you won't hit doodly-squat. As far as magnums go, the .357 is no great shakes unless the barrel is at least 6" or more, and if it's a .44 mag, you won't like shooting it at all if you're a n00b.
If anyone in your party has a "magnum" with a snub nosed barrel and thinks he's got a firebreather, he's ignorant.
And if they don't handload, they're tyros.
Be sure to bring lots of beer, nothing's better than alcohol and firearms.
Originally posted by Sam The ShamI own both, so I can say with experience that you are absolutely correct. The .357 with a 4" barrel is accurate to about 40' slow fire and about 15' rapid fire. The .44 magnum is too much gun for a n00b. The kick will make you jerk the trigger instead of squeezing it. It is a gun that takes a lot of practice to get used to.

To Shav: I hope that you are not as nearly cavalier at the range, if I brought someone to my club who had that attitiude, I wouldn't let them shoot a bb gun. Hand guns are seriuos business, and they have one single purpose... to kill people.
Originally posted by duecerFunnily enough, I seem to have played cowboys and indians so often as a kid, that I was jerking the gun and making gun noises before even pulling the bloody trigger.

Trigger jerking was the least of the problems. I liked the automatic pistols best. Just firing like a gangster and murmuring: "Who's yer daddy!" (I found the gun people a little too serious to be shouting weird comments on the range).
All in all, I think that guns like me. I like guns... but animals and capitalists can sleep in peace. My aim is as rotten as Mugabe.
