Greetings,
Reading a recent HALO-inspired post in praise of the AK-74 as a sniper rifle, I found myself wondering: how many THR members promote THR on video-game boards?
For those that play shooter games, do you find yourself drawn into technical firearm discussions on Gamer Forums? Are many gamers at all receptive to learning about real-life firearms, or interested in learning how to shoot? Are gamers a potential source of real-life RKBA supporters?
I'm not a gamer myself, don't follow their boards, and my l33t sp34k is still limited to asking for directions and buying bus tickets, so I'm unable to figure out these cultural trends for myself. I'd be interested in hearing from THR members in the gaming community (sorry, teh gaming community), especially those who started with game guns and moved into real-life guns.
