Good article. Thanks, pwolfman. It's a welcome change to see something positive writen about guns in a major publication.

Great article.
I must make it down there one year. Maybe after I graduate and get some money in my pocket, so I can actually shoot a few guns, rather than just drooling from the peanut gallery.

One theory for the rise in MG prices was the Wall Streeters buying them as an investment. I wonder how many machine guns are locked away in Pennsylvania homes owned by Wall Street-types, never to see the light of day and never to be shot.

Such was the case with Emily's dad, Rob, who, like most people, declined to give his last name. When asked by the MP5 owner if Emily had ever shot a gun before, Rob quickly rattled off an array of pistols and shotguns. "I think she'll do fine," the gun owner said. And she did.

A little nervous at first, she pulled the trigger with trepidation, squeezing off a round or two. But Emily quickly discovered why the MP5 is loved by the FBI, Delta Force and others. It's a full-blown submachine gun, but with the kick of a cap gun. With renewed confidence, she quickly expended the rest of her clip and walked off the line with a big grin.This guy is in the running for Coolest Dad in the Known Universe.

Great story. I hope everyone took the opportunity at the bottom of the article to write back a response. I'm sure the more positive responses the easier it will be for WSJ and others to see that articles about guns need not be anti-gun or about death and destruction.
