No but used to shoot my dad's .22 and was on tue marksman team in jrotc. The youngest varsity member ever and the top shot before teammates took note of my technique.
Absolute control of yourself and the rifle. I used to not drink soda or caffeine because it gives your hands just a tiny bit of unsteadiness. A little bit makes a big difference in competitive shooting.
Hope to get a handgun, maybe a revolver, in the next few years. Something reliable with low recoil cuz I got carpal tunnel and shit now.

I used to own a Remington r700 .270 but after some suicidal thoughts involving it, I gave it to my older brother for his Bday. He has a number of guns.
I got it because of that movie Shooter, and shot a couple hundred rounds through it at targets over maybe 9 years.
I hardly shot it so couldn't justify letting it sit under my bed while using psychedelic mushrooms.

I own many. I keep 1 handgun on me at all times, and the other rifles and handguns are kept in my bedroom with easy access. My kids are grown, and I live by myself at the moment. So there is no chance of having an 'accident'.

I've got a couple. Never think about them as weapons for defense as much as they are tools for hunting. Thinking about adding a ruger 380 acp to the list as a side carry when I'm in the woods. For now the tools I've got are:
Ruger American bolt action 308 (elk wrench)
Remington 1100 shotgun (bird wrench)
Mosin nagant (for good clean fun)
Quote:
Ovoidhunter said: I have a mosin Nagant, 22 lr, 243, 410 gauge, 20 gauge, 2 12 gauges and a 22 pistol. Also some old antiques passed down from my family.
Mosin Nagant does major damage. I run the armour piercing rounds for hunting..
Who re-arsenaled your Mosin? There was a hex receiver model beautifully rearsenaled by the Fins I missed out on a few months ago I'm still kicking myself over. $300 if I remember correctly. Fuck.

Shenmue said: Yes a good majority of the country owns guns. There is nothing wrong with owning guns and there's nothing wrong with not having any guns. Most of us want to live in a free society. Gun ownership is literally our second amendment. If you don't like it then you're definitely living in the wrong country.
The shroomery is on this thing called the internet, and believe it or not not everyone on the internet is American.
Quote:
Shenmue said: They own them to protect themselves and their families.
It clearly doesn't protect your family, quite the opposite it endangers them. Your family, statistically speaking, needs to be protected from you. Home defense is such ridiculous reason to own a gun. Burglars break in when you are out, home invasions happen to drug dealers, not normal citizens. Gun accidents are far more likely than your hero fantasy
Quote:
Shenmue said: Violence increases in country's with gun bans. It simply doesn't work and even if it did It would still be a horrible idea to do it.
I can literally walk thru any neighborhood in canada safely so I call bullshit. Same with Europe or Australia or Japan. The only places with gun bans that are dangerous are 3rd world shitholes in Latin America or Africa. That is a result of shitty policing and desperation. If we are comparing shit you have to do it with the same type of countries, not Somalia vs America.
"According to a 2013 report by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), between 2005 and 2012, the average homicide rate in the U.S. was 4.9 per 100,000 inhabitants compared to the average rate globally, which was 6.2. However, the U.S. had much higher murder rates compared to four other selected "developed countries", which all had average homicide rates of 0.8 per 100,000.[45] In 2004, there were 5.5 homicides for every 100,000 persons, roughly three times as high as Canada (1.9) and six times as high as Germany and Italy" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_in_the_United_States
It's hard to compare "violent crime" in USA with Canada because the FBI definition of violent crime differs from RCMP. You have more violent crime than we do though. At least double https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/en/pub/85-002-x/85-002-x2001011-eng.pdf?st=NcCeyefi
About 41% of robberies in the U.S. involved a firearm, compared to 16% in Canada. https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/en/pub/85-002-x/85-002-x2001011-eng.pdf?st=NcCeyefi
Here is your talking point,I'm helping you, Canada has more reported property crime. That's a trade off I am glad to make.
UK has more robberies per capita than USA but I'd rather get mugged at knifepoint than gun point.

Quote:
Shenmue said: In the United states Hammers kill more people a year than rifles.
That's good I support the rights of hunters to own a reasonable hunting rifle. Now lets see how many die from handguns (which should be banned)

https://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/ucr/crime-in-the-u.s/2013/crime-in-the-u.s.-2013/offenses-known-to-law-enforcement/expanded-homicide/expanded_homicide_data_table_8_murder_victims_by_weapon_2009-2013.xls
So 10x as many people die from handguns than hammers.

Yea, meanwhile, the USA invades foreign lands and gets thousands of troops rekt by dudes with Aks wearing pajamas
There are people out there ok with dying and willing to take tyrants with them.
You think if some of the people here were to get raided they would go peacefully? Nope. They aren't the ones kicking doors in but when they come knocking, I have no doubt there's a handful of members cool with going out blasting.
Weapons=freedom. Fuck the government, buy guns, shoot tyrants in the face when the opportunity is presented, just like the Founders wanted.
