The firearms "chat" was typical sharing of weekend fun around the water cooler for firearms hobbyists. A small, repeatable group of shots is a measure of marksmanship skill and the quality of the firearm that produced the group. No different than a great bowling score.

Bullseye competitions are sporting exercise. I've put over 80,000 rounds on paper targets since the last time one went through the head of a cottontail rabbit for dinner. I'm confident of my ability to feed my family and/or my neighbors if the need arises.

It's important to remember that paper targets and 4-legged food sources don't shoot back. The two-legged types that can shoot back are going to be well armed and well practiced. It's not a game. It's not a sport. It's life or death.

JP: you really need to get out of Illinois. The hoplophobia appears to be contagious.

Sorry Myr when 1/2 of the posts are about firearms hobbyists, I don't think I should be put on the defense, why can't anyone ever just say ok my bad instead of publically front, I just don't get that? I asked nice after dozens of posts. Do whatever Myr, I am so tired of all this
