Yes.

I've become good at shooting over the years, thanks to my dad moving to the south & joining the NRA :rolleyes: but I don't like it at all. It's stressful at best. I don't like the feeling of wielding that amount of destructive power, or of anyone else being able to. Shooting ranges are usually pretty serious business for me. They're more about me developing good accuracy in case of an emergency situation than they are about fun.
I got pretty familiar with this baby during my service. It's almost a copy of AK-47 and it's hella accurate.
Urgh, don't remind me...

I love weapons!
I've shot an M16A2, a crap load of different pistols, sniper rifle, M240 Machine Gun, M203 grenade launcher, AT4 rocket launcher.
I've also thrown live grenades. Feeling the percussion of it going off crouched down behind a wall 2 feet thick gets me hard.:crazy:

I'd rather fire a gun with the least possible recoil, than one that'll bruise my shoulder after firing a couple shots.

I try very hard to keep emotions and socializing separate from my gun shooting. From a purely physical aspect, I try to view gun shooting as a means of survival. On the other hand, I typically develop very strong emotional bonds with friends and tying gun shooting in with that (and thus developing strong emotional bonds with gun shooting) is not good for me.

If anyone failed to get it, he posted the exact same thing in my thread about food :p

If you're looking for a thrill take it to a wedding party. It makes for a funny prank.

So last night, I shot a gun for the first time. It was just a .22, but I have to say I was really disappointed. I've heard all these people talking about shooting and how much fun it is and how it's this huge rush, but I felt like I was shooting a cap gun.
Is it just because it's a .22? Would higher caliber guns feel much different, or are guns just not as exciting to fire as I thought?
i'm sure it depends from person to person but yeah, a .22 is like a pea shooter compared to other more common firearms that have a better chance of giving you a gun-boner. dunno if it's already been mentioned but try shooting a handgun. make sure it's turned sideways and that when you pull the trigger you stab your firing arm forward as you're shooting for maximum gangsta-badass effect.
