Other shooters here?

Post by bestseller92 »

Just wondering how many other JB fans here are also shooters. Along with writing, it's my mainmost (yes, I know) hobby. I prefer handguns to rifles, though I pretty much like them all. Any others?

I almost responded with a question asking "tequila or rum?".......then realized we weren't talking about the same "shooters". Sorry..... :o

unless you are looking for a re-enactment of the "King of the Hill" episode where Hank teaches Bobby to shoot, and the range supervisor is describing how he lost his fingers..

I don't own a gun but I don't have a problem with people who do. I think people should have the right to bear arms.
If you want an experience, go to a Jimmy Buffett concert.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Life is short, live long!!

I'd rather be a wiseass than a dumbass.

I own a Smith & Wesson .357, a Baretta 9 MM, and a Remington 12 gauge shotgun.
I love them all as if they were my own children.

I love the smell of gun oil and cleaning solvent.....so I don't mind at all.

Actually, I love the smell of the gun range....that sort of sweet smell of exploded powder.....mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm......

The shotguns and the Hand Guns are not that hard to clean, but the Rifles can be a bit of a chore. Have to get the manual out everytime for one of them. That line about the Cam Pin and the Rifle exploding gets me everytime.
