Re: Guns Because

http://www.artofmanliness.com/2011/05/1 ... t-a-rifle/
Just need to know for a book. Father teaches daughter how to shoot a Pattern 1914 Enfield. I want to get every nuance right and I don't know fuck all about guns.

LOL Oh dear, old timer fail.
It's the internet, you can ignore anyone safely. Or in your case not ignore anyone, safely or otherwise. You'll get the hang of it eventually.

Re: Guns Because
Standing being the least accurate shooting position, of course, it's not bad. There's also the cross legged shooting position, the kneeling position, and the prone position. Obviously the prone position is most accurate as it takes most of your body movement out of the equation.

Re: Guns Because
Wrong. You are parroting the standard "militia only" interpretation that gun-banners love to pander. Fact is that the Supreme Court has ruled that the "militia clause" is not a limitation on the types and uses of arms that are protected by the Amendment.Blind groper wrote:The original second amendment gave only one purpose, to provide a militia for national defence.

What those who are ignorant of shooting don't realize, is that several thousand rounds, is really not a lot of ammunition, but they think it is.Seth wrote:As a side note, I just bought 3600 rounds of Lake City .308/7.62 NATO ammo at the Knob Creek machine gun shoot to add to the 5600 rounds of 5.56 NATO Federal I bought last year.Seth wrote:More than I have, and as much as I want.Gawdzilla Sama wrote:How much ammo you be needin' to shoot them there Revenooers?

You and one or two of your shooting buddies could easily shoot 5000 rounds in half a day of shooting if you were training, especially if it's for competition, like 3 gun.
Yet, anti-gunners would love to limit ammunition sales, keep databases on people, totally violating their privacy, and ban internet sales of ammo all together.
