So who on NS has actually shot a gun

I just watched turbo and kind of did a double take when Stefan Thomas said he hadn't shot a gun.  So I got to thinking.. how many of you guys shoot, have shot or whatnot with guns?

Probably will start a huge debate but I'd like to see it again.

I myself have two 12 guages of my own and a 30-06.  I shoot in a trap league at our local club and am an avid duck hunter.  And hey guess what? I'm liberal and utterly detest the NRA.  But all that aside I want to see the rest of NS and how experienced they are with guns.

Cheers

I did a lot of bird hunting before I went to college. Own a 12 gauge and a 20 gauge. Pheasant hunting is pretty intense shit especially with those real wild birds running around in the brush and flying at way too fucking fast speeds, less a fan of duck hunting though, too much sitting around and waiting.

I competed in 12 gauge shotgun shooting for 3 summers, it was some fun stuff. I've shot .22's and a few different types of handguns. I live in Seattle.

Good stuff.

i've shot 30-30s, some other rifle i forget the caliber of because it was a long time ago, .22s, 20 gauges, and i think i shot a 12 gauge way back in the day once, not sure though. its pretty fun, not my favorite activity by any means though.

most people should experience shooting a gun,i went to one of those demo shoots where you pay to shoot guns such as the:m4a1,m16a4,uzi,bar,various handguns,ump45,mp7,m60,and other cool shit.This place where you demo guns is somethin like this:Ihttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UyIiFOuc7z4&feature=related ts is one of the best feeling to hold an assualt rifle and empty a 30 round clip in under 5 seconds.I go hunting and i own a .22,20 gauge,and a 30-30.I plan to register for a concealed weapons permit when i get older.So thats what i got to say.

moose and a few caribou. i have had my cross hairs on some wolves before but who wants to eat dog? i have helped pack out elk, deer(whitetail, blacktail, and mule), sheep(dall and bighorn), caribou, and just about every huntable bird species west of colorado. bears, but not so much as hunting them as saving our asses...
