Guns Go Bang! - C&C

[Overread36]

I shot so many bullets yesterday my hand hurts.

No really... I did. And it does.

In the soft part between your thumb and pointer finger.

The only time I ever get to share this pain is when putting staples into wood -- and well - stapling stuff to wood just isn't as fun....

EDIT - shock news - has the like button --- vanished!??!!

I've spent many nights in that "cesspool" without a gun and, OMG, I'm still alive. I also lived in what was the murder capital of the US (DC, remember DC? A few miles south of the cesspool) for over 20 years, walked all over the place, lived in different parts of it and had a studio in one of the BAD areas and... OMfG, I'm still alive.

Am I the only one who finds it confusing that the place in the U.S. with the most restrictive gun laws is the murder capital of the US? You would think it would be the safest place to live, what with all the laws against owning or carrying firearms.

Ok, i have to chime in. Where would America be today if the colonists had pitchforks instead of muskets? I'm no militia NWO conspiracy theorist, but i want my weapons to be as effective as possible against any threat. Foriegn or domestic. That is all.....

Yeah, I had over 550 thanks. Thanks were harder to earn than likes.

Bitter... I still need to see a bigger version of your avatar! :lmao:

Honestly, that is not the problem. People should be able to critique an image and leave the political bullsh!t out of it.

It would have probably gone wrong eventually, but let's look at the first response:

oh I'm jealous of you americans. All I can have are hunting rifles.

Is that a critique of the images, or Political Bait?

I just see it as an opening line of interest between one person interested in guns to another who has shown interest in them by posting photos of them. Yes we can just talk about the photos and, as a photo site, that is normally our biggest point of interest. But we've always had conversations about the content of our photos in so much as sharing mutual interests.

I don't see how that quoted post is in any way a political bait unless the person reading is already wanting an excuse just to jump in and fight out the gun debate.

I am not claiming it was intentional bait. But it is bait. It escalated from there. I am not pointing fingers, just looking at the example.

No CC was ever really given in this thread, was it?

HAHAHAHA! Do you watch Phineous and Ferb too?! ...Or is that just a general term that I've never heard of before that show?

Had to laugh at this one because, yes, to me, guns in the US are 90% d*ck extensions. My gun is longer than yours type of thing. :lmao:

It's actually the opposite, my AR15 is shorter than yours. lol I own guns because crazy people like the Brady Campaign.

You sound like my husband.

Okay at least now I know I'm not the only crazy person on here...

It's sore.

That little LCP doesn't play nice after a while, I'll tell ya what.

:thumbup: for getting out there and spending a day putting lead down range.

A few things to help with that soreness in your hand: 1) start shooting left (or right) handed so you can switch off (you can also do that Matrix thing with two hands at the same time ) 2) get a variety of guns so you don't spend the whole time shooting one gun and getting sore from it and 3) find someone that reloads and pay them to make your bullets and make them light loads (so they don't kick so much, AND it will be cheaper than buying from a store.)
