50 Shooter
member
The coolest thing, hard to say after being in the Infantry and getting to shoot everything from a full auto M16 to a Dragon Misslle. Yeah, that was back in the 80's and they have even better weapons to shoot but back then those were on the list.
Getting into shooting 50 Cal rifles was an eye opener, actually being able to see the round from the shockwave created by the round is awesome. With a good spotting scope or a good rifle scope its possible to see smaller rounds. Just never noticed until I got into .50's and from there I started paying more attention to other rounds.
I don't think that there's a weapon that I wouldn't try out, if someone offers me a chance to shoot one of their firearms I take it. Doesn't matter what the caliber is, you never know what you'll find out about different guns unless you shoot them. The surprising look on peoples faces after they shoot my .50 is always worth letting them shoot it. Most can't believe the lack of felt recoil or the amount over pressure in the blast from the muzzle brake. I think I can go on and on about what I like, found out, enjoy about firearms and what I still keep learning. The best thing is that most people that are into firearms are usually some of the best people that I've met.
The only person in my family that's anti gun or leans that way is my sister, I have no reason why she is other then believing in what she watches on TV or reads in news papers. Doesn't matter what I say, I think it might take a life threatening experience for her to wake up.
