I admit I’m a snob about some things.

I may not be *that* bad, because rapid fire on a controlled range is usually pretty annoying and sometimes dangerous.

Otherwise, I’m pretty easy-going.

One reason I don’t use public ranges (Missouri has a very nice one nearby).

Not just the cowboy shooters (attitude-in-general, not the competitors), but pinch-faced Fudds, and knowitall blowhards who know *exactly* what you’re doing wrong, or who won’t leave you alone, wanting to let you know how much they know about guns (especially if you are shooting milsurp). Hint: It’s rare I run into a peer on the topic, but I run into a lotta folks who don’t know squat beyond movies or some fat beardo on Youtube.  (One reason I’m not on YT, being a fat beardo myself)

The last group tends to include honestly earnest folks who mean well, and kids who’s knowledge is video-game deep and almost always AK-IS-GOD biased. I’m polite.

I just wanna shoot, folks. I’m not there to socialize, and if I was, I’d come with a group. Some of ’em are fun to talk to, but enough of them are annoying that we just bought our own range… 😉

A Zen moment of state-of-the-art assault rifles

For their era, anyway.

Just observing.

Well, that Greener Martini police shotgun (fifth from the top) not so much, as it was specifically designed to *not* use standard cartridges, and the wee Khyber carbine below that even less so, being the product of the Kabul armory and a piece I wouldn’t let a democrat poltician shoot, much less a friend.
