Model Forum / Radio Controlled / Land Models / November 2003You guys into guns also?
Guns are so very similar to RC in many ways. There is almost no limit to what a guy can spend on tricking out an RC car, the same with a gun. A guy NEEDS to have several RC vehicles: an off road, on road, monster truck, stadium truck, and then maybe the 4wd versions of all just mentioned. Sometimes you want all out speed in a parking lot, sometimes some MT jumping action in a construction lot. Some bashers, some so nice they get minimal usage. The same with guns, you need a .22, a hunting rifle, a target rifle, a shotgun, a revolver, an auto pistol, etc. Some of them you shoot all the time, others are so nice you only bring them out on real nice days. Sure you can only use one at a time, but you need one for every occasion. It seems like people who are into any of my hobbies are likely into all of my hobbies, so, you into guns also? --Dan > It > seems like people who are into any of my hobbies are likely into all of my > hobbies, so, you into guns also? You bet. I see a lot of overlap between guns, RC, and motorcycles for some reason.

Firstly, not all of us are guys on this list. :) Secondly, they all annoyed my soon to be X Hubby too! <sigh> He didn't even want a simple 12 gage and I won't even get into what he thought about bikes. However, we were able to agree on the ham radio gear and the high tech toys! I'm too old for a bike, so I'm giving a trike with a pop up serious thought. Something about camping, venison, fishing, venison, and did I mention venison? Strange ... he enjoyed venison, but he has problems with the idea of hunting.

I mounted a small .10 caliber cannon on to my R/C battleship. I got fined 500 dollars when he caught me using it to shoot at beached cray fish -- Dadoody ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Posted from the RCGroups.com Discussion Forums.

God you Yanks scare me... Over the years, I have been *sport* shooting in several different environments. Indoor, outdoor, short range, long range rifle, and a few "gauntlet" ranges with pop-up targets. I have NEVER seen a single injury, nor even HEARD of a single injury at any of these ranges. And YOU were shot twice? In a CONTROLLED environment? Well buddy, I gotta tell ya, I had to laugh when you added THIS line: >> God you Yanks scare me... Well said!

If the range was so well controlled, how did you get shot??/I sure as hell do not want to shoot around the guys you do!!! Jon > I've got two gunshot wounds - one in the groin and one in the back - and > that was from a ND on a well controlled range. God you Yanks scare me... [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > > & Post Your Hunting & Fishing Questions I was at one of the local ranges not long ago taking a concealed carry class. One of the other students (a medical doctor) was standing beside me while we were shooting targets. He was shooting a .45 acp, and was a new shooter. The instructor was ordering us to load X amount of rounds, shoot X rounds somewhere, then giving reload instructions. Well, upon the reload instructions, this doctor next to me fumbles around with his gun and FIRES it into the ground next to my foot! It really shook him up, he could have easily wounded or killed me or another student. It is scary that today he probably carries his gun with him in public. --Dan > I've got two gunshot wounds - one in the groin and one in the back - and > that was from a ND on a well controlled range.
