Have any of you ever noticed how seriously some people take certain things
Ive been to the range with everything from "serious" weaponry to plinkers and toys
I always tend to get the evil eye when I bring out things like my hipoint carbine or 9mm largo destroyer carbine If I dont have the AR with me
I get the same dirty looks if I have my vaquero and 25cal reck out without my 1911 or LCR
Even if you do have "the right gun" you may not (in some peoples eyes) have it the proper way.
like owning an AR with anything other than a quad rail forend 16 inch barrel and some uber stock from some company that sells specifically to the Marine Force Recon Delta Seal Squad 17
I love guns... all kinds of guns... even the junk ones no one would seriously consider for self defense hunting or other purpose
I own some very good pieces for SD/HD I also have some good arms for hunting and pest control.
But a good deal of my guns are just for fun and to send lead down range
Some people just turn their noses up unless you have the top of the line combat ready boom stick or the finest tack driving weather proof deer slayer
Sometimes I just like shooting for fun
Minute of milk jug at 50 yards is still entertaining to me and sometimes I just like the challenge of using something weird
I avoid the guys at the range that are mesmerized by trendy stuff so for the most part the gun snobbery is minimal and usually you get a lot of people like minded that just want to play with their toys
but on the internet it runs rampid with the usual comments "that thing is junk" "I would never own that" or "that will never be a good choice in a fight"
sometimes I own a gun just to own it like the judge which gets its more than fair share of bashing
Dont get me wrong there are some things I take very seriously
I practice seriously to know how to handle my firearms
I take the safety rules very seriously and abide by them at all times
and I maintain my firearms with serious attention for safety and function
but am I the only one that thinks some people are just stuck in their ways and wont open their minds to the fun shooting is?
not every range trip has to be full out tactical training for the apocalypse sometimes it can just be popping cans with a 22
not every gun has to be JUST a weapon some of them can be plinkers or empty brass manufacturers
there are trillions of guns and combinations of configurations lets all loosen up a bit and have fun again and remember to each his own
