Good Lord! I was shooting a Springfield in Hi-Power competition when I was 12, and I was small for my age.

That's 70+ rounds... Plus pulling targets.

So what he’s saying is his testicles almost descended but not quite on that day. He’s still a man bun wearing soy boy.

He probably doesn’t want to shoot a Thompson Contender .44 Mag with hot deer hunting loads.

By the way, on a trip to the range with the family a few years ago I handed my then high school age niece and her friend my AR-15. They absolutely loved it. They took to it far more than any other gun and were quickly driving tacks with it. They were surprised to learn afterwards that THAT was the supposedly oh so scary AR-15.

I was too. Then I saw the byline, and just knew that he needed to be mocked.

I’ve got a sporterized No.1 Mk III in 45-70, 20 inch barrel. Pet load is 300 gr. FMJ at 2200 fps. Stout. That reporter might like this rifle as it only weighs 7 1/2 lbs.

I heard this story on WMAL this morning and kept thinking to myself, ba-boom from an AR-15? Fired those in the Navy at basic in 1977 and thought they were toys even then.

Oh yeh, the recoil from my AK74 is just agonizing. Hand that fool a Mossberg 500 tactical shotgun. That’s recoil. 😆

“BA-BOOM!!!!!”

Must’ve been a double-barrel AR.
