Taking a person shooting for the first time is a very rewarding experience. It is a pro constitutional act that pays off over time.

Why would you have one if you didn't expect to kill someone? And doesn't having a gun for defense mean you don't trust the police people paid to defend the citizenry to do their job? Ugh. I live here and go to this same range. It is a great new venue and much closer to home than the others.

having lived in the South for a good four years now Ah, I found the problem. I really am tired of the carpetbaggers moving into this area and bringing their failed practices with them.

Yes it is. I took one of my good friends for the first time and he loved it. He started to learn real fast and got a few bullseyes with full power .357 Magnums with my Ruger GP100. He wants to buy one now and go shotting more regularly.

“And doesn’t having a gun for defense mean you don’t trust the police people paid to defend the citizenry to do their job?”
Several court rulings, including the US Supreme Court, have held that it is NOT the responsibility of police to provide individual protection. How many times have you read “police prevent assault on woman” or “police stop armed criminals from bank robbery”? Police come AFTER the crime 99% of the time. YOUR SELF DEFENSE IS UP TO YOU.

This guy sounds like a girl. A girl from Massachusetts. What a jerk. He chose a good weapon though.

No way. That guy is much more manly than this wimp. At least he pees standing up.

My hands were actually shaking as I loaded the gun with its six bullets and took aim.BS. The Judge only holds 5.

Me too. They come down here and want to "improve" things. They complain incessantly and disparage everything that's already here, and say constantly "Back in we had..." And if they get into the government...ugh.

Despite having lived in the South for a good four years now, I have only so much as held a pistol twice, and never pulled the trigger...
Lovely. Another day-yam Yankee.
Growing up as a teenage boy playing way too many violent video games, it may be odd that I never had much to do with actual weapons.
My family and friends were never big on them. Some members of my family are dead-set against them. Their thinking is one I had until fairly recently guns are made to kill. Why would you have one if you didn't expect to kill someone? And doesn't having a gun for defense mean you don't trust the police people paid to defend the citizenry to do their job?
I don't even know where to begin.
My views have changed considerably since I was an idealistic youth. Weapons are fine for self defense, and are probably a necessity in some areas.
Well. How magnanimous of him to concede to the practicality of self defense.
Entering the gun range, I admit I was nervous about just holding a weapon, let alone using it. Disaster scenarios went through my head as soon as I committed to shooting. What if someone gets shot or, worse, killed? Holding a loaded weapon is a heavy responsibility, and one I was not sure I wanted to take up
At least he admits it's huge, and he's possibly too immature to handle it.
I dunno, I reckon I'm supposed to be glad that here's an imported liberal pansy who's opened his mind to a new experience we tend to take for granted around here.
But OMG this limp-wristed, sniveling navel gazing makes me cringe with disgust. Dude, may the chains that bind you rest lightly upon your limbs. May your licking of another's boots result in none more than a gentle pat on the head. Go away from us in peace. Don't stop til you arrive back in the liberal hellhole you sprung from, and clap the door shut against any more of your fellow liberal brethren and sistren headed south. Ya'll stay home, y'hear?

Yes, one would hope he’s only visiting. And, I encourage his use of the shotshells; aim becomes less critical, especially with the street-sweeper shells. Otherwise, he might just fill his purse with washers.....

Did he load "bullets" or shotgun shells?

Right, the Judge holds five. And they’re cartridges, not bullets.
