Okay, I have figured out that I love to read interesting stories and experiences on THR and various other forums.
Hopefully everyone can just post up an interesting story related to Firearms, the kind of story you'd tell to a group of your friends on a casual poker night or whatnot.
I don't have a terribly interesting story, but this should do:
I had decided that the day I turn 18 I was going to pop my shooting virginity and head to the shooting range myself. I looked through my dad's gun collection and picked out the "neater" guns, a Sig p220, an Uzi carbine, and a Mac 11. I had pulled up my car to the front because navigating the weapons through the back door would be somewhat of a hassle. My dad didn't have any cases for these particular guns. This hit me as a problem as I had the Mac11 and Uzi in each hand about to walk out the front door. I thought about everything and figured all of my actions were legal and that it was only 10 feet to my driveway. I even jokingly said to myself "What? a cop is going to suddenlydrive by in this neighborhood?" Sure enough, just as i walked out with two very evil looking guns, a patrol car happily whizzes by. I think my heart completely stopped. Then I overcame my needless shock and laughed all the way to the range. I'm glad the cop didn't notice, because that would have been a lot of explaining.
Of course your stories don't have to be anything along my lines, just any funny or interesting story about you or a friend you can think of.
Eagerly waiting for reading material,
