That girls can't shoot.
To this date, every female I've taught to shoot, OUTSHOOTS ME!

But it was used previously in "Pat Garret and Billy the Kid" when Kristofferson shoots the sheriff with his own shotgun and says "Keep the change , Bob".That would be Young Guns
Ah yes.... the abject dismissal of the .410 as well as 16ga. as serious hunters. So true.Squeezed in a Buggles reference with the .41 Mag and .44 Spl., awesome!
One more I forgot... the .243 Win and .410 bore are “kids guns”.
Stay safe.
Your clothes dryer may share some of the responsibility for the sock to gun disparity.Actually true!
I have to sell off a few ever so often as my gun room over populates....
And my sock drawer is nearly full.
Shouldn’t I call it a pistol drawer? More pistols than socks!
The dimes in a shotgun shell came out of some old western movie I cant recall the name. The fellow with the shotgun lets fly and then says "the best two bucks I ever spent"

That the M16 was an unreliable underpowered poodle shooter made by Matel, and we should go back to the M14
Depends where you get your notions from?
"Little Armalite", also known as "My Little Armalite" or "Me Little Armalite" is an Irish Republican song that praises Armalite
Reading CB Colby's book in grade school set me on a course to a career in Special Forces. In all this time the single ridiculous item that has always stuck with me is the following (below, about the car) along with the *truism* that an M-16 projectile can/will enter at the elbow, travel along the bone and pierce the heart, lungs or other pumpy-bits. Myths that started in the 60s that died a hard death in the early 80s.

True - I put that down to salesmanship-license.Also about the rate of fire. It's a bit lower than 750.
I love this one so much, I named my 5.56/223 upper for my SBR AR -- Poodle Shooter!- ARs are good for nothing but shooting poodles
Great myth! Now, if only we could get that to be an accepted myth by the *media* and politicians.... we'd have naught but PETA to worry about.- ARs are good for nothing but shooting poodles

I don't remember seeing that old western, but Hollywierd is obviously still perpetuating the same stupid, silly myth. Just the night before last, my wife and I rented the recently released western movie, "News of the World" with Tom Hanks. At one point in the movie, when 2 of the 3 bad guys (Tom had already killed 1 bad guy with his revolver) were closing in on Tom Hanks and the young girl he was protecting, the only ammo Tom Hanks had left was shotgun shells loaded with "birdshot." So the quick thinking young girl dumped the shot out of the shotgun shells, and replaced it with dimes. And that allowed Tom Hanks to dispatch the remaining 2 bad guys because he obviously had "more effective" ammo for his shotgun.The dimes in a shotgun shell came out of some old western movie I cant recall the name.

I don't remember that one, but I do remember a few of the guys I worked with back in the '80s that swore up and down that they "knew someone" who had a "cousin" (or whatever) that had their wrist broken by .44 Magnum recoil. Funny thing was, my 5'2", 120lb wife was winning, or at least placing in match after match of IHMSA competitions back then, and she was shooting one or the other of her 2, .44 Magnums with full-house (a big charge of 2400 behind a 220 gr bullet) loads.Back in the 60s everybody who knew anything about guns knew that a .44 Magnum would disable any vehicle by knocking the motor loose from the motor mounts.
Ah, yes! The mystic "one more gun." I believe in that one.The biggest myth of all is that if you buy just one more gun, you will have enough!
I always enjoyed his books when I was in high school. No special forces stuff for me tho, retired from AF in 95.Reading CB Colby's book in grade school set me on a course to a career in Special Forces.
