the 100% directionless thread

:rofl:

I take it you haven't been to a public range lately?


It's been about a year since I've gone pistol shooting, and there was only like 1 other person there.

They all take their own particular skill set. Shooting a pistol accurately at range is difficult. Shooting it at speed, accurately at a distance is supremely so.
 
I'm intrigued reading the gun stuff. I have a Bersa 380 I need to get reacquainted with.

Major review going on here between test in class and my EMT CAT on Wednesday.
 
Do you have a recommendations on a good beginning shotgun? I have fired lots of shotguns before, but most were set up for home defense not shooting sports.

Go for a Remington 870 or Mossberg 500/590.
They both have some packages with both a home defense 18.5" barrel and a 22"+ barrel for trap/hunting.

Both are very common, and have lots of accessories available.
 
Maybe right above the other "point firearm at non-moving target, pull trigger" nonsense. Archery and trap/skeet requires skill. Shooting a pistol at a non-moving target indoors is something at stodge can do. In contrast regularly hitting a target 50 yards away with a 30lb recurve bow takes practice and skill.

I should have said I was just ribbing you.

Mossberg 500 is a good gun. 20 or 12
 
Pointless ponder of the day:

If a "C" grade is considered average, a "D" considered below average, and a "B" considered above average, then by definition shouldn't half of the class receive a
"D" or "F"?

*Mind blown*
 
Everyone needs a supe/boss like mine. Look what he just brought by the station. Chocolate chip cheesecake with chocolate frosting, chocolate syrup and a crumbled chocolate chip cookie topping. I'm in heaven.

The Sheriff speaks...

I gave an infraction to everyone who talked guns after I told y'all to park your guns at the door.

If I knew how to temporarily close the thread I would have. I am not as well armed as I thought! Even the CLs and CL Emeritus got yelled at.

I'm not kidding, derail this topic and NOW!
 
Umm we have CLs participating in the firearm talk. The gun control debate was derailed, so far now it just looks like friendly conversation... But that's just my opinion
 
So... on another topic. What's a 24, almost 25 year old guy do when he can't sleep?

Not trying to cause trouble.. But

Isnt the point of the 100% directionless thread that the discussion/topic is fluid and can change.. Therefore what is wrong with people discussing hobbies civilly? I truly hope that it is not that you are uncomfortable with firearms and will not allow discussion of them..
 
Once guns come up it seems like it is impossible for the topic to change. It gets kind of annoying for us that don't have that hobby. It makes it hard to discuss anything else.

Let's agree right now to not debate forum moderation out loud in the thread. While the CLs discuss this and figure out what firetender is thinking, let's remain directionless or take it to him by pm.

We will NOT be discussing moderation in this thread. Apparently not 100% directionless, ok?
