Poor Ian and the Aardvark, trying to get the thread back on topic.

Now we understand why Boomana wanted to get Grawk as a bodyguard! :prettyprincess:

Grawk is tyrion's bodyguard, but since Mike's mine, grawk is mine by extension, though now with Nate in the picture, I suspect Dan will be a bit too busy to help if I really need it. I think I'll stick with South Florida Chris. He is going to take me to the shooting range, anyway, so I won't be needing any y'all.

Typhoid Mary, armed and dangerous! ;D

I kinda look at cleaning them afterwards as the meditation that helps the adrenaline level go down a bit. So in some ways, it's the yin to the yang of shooting :)

I've gone to a shooting range a few times, and just rented a gun; no clean up afterwards :)

Grawk, its a long shot, but MSAR in upper Marlborough had a used P90 for sale in 2007 that you could also rent and shoot O0

It may still be there.

It was going for $1500 if I remember correctly.

Just a heads-up in case you were interested in shooting an unusual gun.

No harm no foul.

Ah, thanks. I hit the point of no space or desire for more guns a few years back. Right now, I 'd say it's safe to say I have more net worth in ww2 german handguns than I do in my house :)

Maybe I should ask you to be my bodyguard.

I haven't owned a gun since 1979, when my parents made me get rid of the nice little 22 my boyfriend had given me for my 18th birthday a year earlier. It was gun or college. Since my college degree got me a lot of waitress jobs, I'm not sure I chose wisely.

I went in the army in the middle of college, and never really finished. But I've ended up with a gun or 2 since then...

But really, owning guns can be a hassle. Nothing is worse than the sinking feeling you get when a gun gets stolen, for example.

Armed robbery FTW.

I used to shoot these 7.62 beasties, good for 600 yard with open sights.

AAfter putting 200 rounds through it cleaning took the best part of 2 hours. >:(

British L1A1 SLR.

It's based on the Belgian FN used by armies around the world.

Ah. I'm still a big fan of the M16/AR15. I used to be accurate out to 400 yards with iron sites, and 5.56 is a lot lighter than 7.62. :)

Plus mine had a grenade launcher strapped to the bottom.

I still have an AR15, tho mine is .45acp.

At 400 yards I'd rather be hit by your 5,56 than my 7.62, put it that way. ;D

To be honest, as a foot soldier, if I ever felt the need to engage at 400 yards, I'd do something else. Or call in an airstrike. Most infantry combat is more like <100 yards.
