I never felt so American this weekend. Shot AK47, M4, various side arms, etc.

[Zeze]

According to my friend who owns all these guns, we shot:

At least 500 or more rounds of ammo. .22LR, 9mm, .357, 40 S&W, 45 ACP, .223, 300 AAC Blackout, 7.62x39, 12GA target and 1oz slugs

AR15 (x3), AK47, Glock (x3), Sig Sauer (x2), Mossberg shotgun (x2), Ruger SR22, Para 45, Tech 9, Henry Lever action .22LR rifle

I had the most fun with shotguns. CHA-SCHIK, BAM!

 

[sandorski]

That makes you feel "American"?

Strange.

 

[Thebobo]

Really, shooting a gun made you feel more americain? Does look like you're having fun. What's the correlation?

 

[Jeeebus]

'Merica

 

[Thebobo]

When I shoot a gun I think of this video

[Humpy]

That butt crack is more 'Merica than all those guns combined! Haha.

Someday I'd like to shoot some guns again.

In college I signed up for an ROTC class of sorts where we got to shoot some small rifles and shotguns and learned to read maps. They kicked me out though when someone found out I hadn't actually joined the Army. I kinda just wanted to try it out for a while and see if I liked it before making any commitments.

Now my wife won't let me have a gun.

shotguns are my fave too. my friend has a double barrel with separate triggers that is fun to shoot clay pigeons with.

 

[zCypher]

That does look like fun!

American? How about:
Mercenary
Third world dictator
Thug
Dangerous
Policeman that curtails personal rights
Member of a drug lord's army

Yes, guns are exciting.
So is:
Armed robbery
Rape
Murder
Genocide

Why don't you try those too?

 

[sdifox]

What is an American doing shooting AK?

Is that not what he meant by America?

This is like equating having a penis to being a rapist

 

[BurnItDwn]

Looks like an awesome weekend zeze!
Except the loading of all the magizines ... that part not so much ...

 

[BarkingGhostar]

That makes you feel "American"?

Strange.

Not Strange. Americans believe in freedome and enjoy the fact they can go shooting where in a lot of countries that might not be the case.

 

[Thebobo]

In America we enjoy the right to spell it Freedom.

Other countries eh? well I can't discharge a weapon legally except at a range $$, how is that fair? Why should I have to go to a licensed range to fire my legally acquired firearms. I can't even fire a BB or Pellet gun. Where are my 2nd amendment rights!? Whats up with these laws curtailing my second amendment rights!

 

[sandorski]

No, very strange, because you seem very unaware of what Freedom was truly gained in the founding of the US. It wasn't Gun Ownership.

 

[clamum]

MURICA

It is indeed a lot of fun. Glad you had a good time! I wanna get to the range soon. Only bad thing about shooting is having to clean the guns. I went from faithfully cleaning them right after every range visit to now cleaning them after every 4 visits, about. I probably didn't need to clean them as much as I did but now I find it hard to do it. F'ing laziness.

 

[BudAshes]

Same except instead of shooting guns I went to McDonalds, Burger King and Taco Bell all in the same day. Took a red white and blue shit this morning.

Because the freedom granted is NOT unlimited under the 2A or anything in the Constitution.

For example, you can not just stand outside in public and scream "let kill all members of this group or that group" and then claim your right to advocate violence is protected under 1A or yell "fire" in a crowded movie theater and expect no consequence.

Just saying (just in case you were being serious).

In other news. OP, did you get to shoot the Shockwave shotgun? I like to have it soon.

 

[JulesMaximus]

How does shooting a Soviet made weapon make you feel more American?

 

[highland145]

No hearing protection. Questionable how American OP felt. Fondling might have been enough.





Except for the butt crack. American all the way.

 

[zinfamous]

It's not American until you take them to a school or mall or sporting event or concert.

Too soon?

I find it disturbing that you think armed robbery, rape, murder, and genocide is exciting. I hope you never own any weapons.

Reminds me of this article on why people are anti-gun:

A Psychiatrist Examines The Anti-Gun Mentality

About a year ago I received an e-mail from a member of a local Jewish organization. The author, who chose to remain anonymous, insisted that people have no right to carry firearms because he didn’t want to be murdered if one of his neighbors had a "bad day". (I don’t know that this person is a "he", but I’m assuming so for the sake of simplicity.) I responded by asking him why he thought his neighbors wanted to murder him, and, of course, got no response. The truth is that he’s statistically more likely to be murdered by a neighbor who doesn’t legally carry a firearm and more likely to be shot accidentally by a law enforcement officer.

How does my correspondent "know" that his neighbors would murder him if they had guns? He doesn’t. What he was really saying was that if he had a gun, he might murder his neighbors if he had a bad day, or if they took his parking space, or played their stereos too loud. This is an example of what mental health professionals call projection – unconsciously projecting one’s own unacceptable feelings onto other people, so that one doesn’t have to own them. In some cases, the intolerable feelings are projected not onto a person, but onto an inanimate object, such as a gun, so that the projector believes the gun itself will murder him.

Get professional help before you go on a killing spree.

You don't think those things would be exciting? That's strange.
