Apparently only Karl does. None of the other big strong men in this
group seem to be willing to put their cards on the table.

We can fix that. We could go to the range sometime. I was a certified rifle
instructor and no expert with handguns, but I can get you started safely.

You might even like it enough to get one. d8-)

My mantra teaching hand gun shooting...
"Finger *OFF* the trigger".

I'm hoping you mean "bitch slap." g

Yes, I get out that old NRA manual from my rifle-instructor course every
time I take new guys to the range. Rangersucks could join my Liberal
Militia. d8-)

I'm short of ammo, though, and my favorite range has closed. I have to look
around for a new one. Meantime, I only load .32 H&R Magnum and .38 Spl. I
have to get some .45 ACP dies, seeing as how we have a shortage.

Ranger, I can bring .22, .32 S&W Long (Colt Pocket Positive),. .32 H&R
Magnum, .38 Spl., and, if I can get ammo, .45 ACP. You'll have fun.

Have the students repeat the 4 rules over and over, out loud, continuously.
They have to become second nature.

If Johnny goes to school and doesn't learn how to add, he may learn it
later, and he's not particularly dangerous. Being a pistol instructor puts
much higher demands on your teaching skills. On the basis of a 3 hour
safety lecture, I was willing to go into the range the next night and give
15 total strangers loaded handguns. I've taught several hundred people how
to shoot, and we never had a serious accident. I typically had an
assistant instructor for every 2 or 3 students. By the end of class, most
of the students could keep all their shots on a standard 50 foot target.
This was at MIT, and we tended to get reasonably bright students, although
there were exceptions.

I now teach as an assistant instructor with another club. Their course are
open to the public. All live firing is done with an instructor working
individually with each student. About 15 years ago they had a woman sign
up for the course with the sole purpose of committing suicide. She managed
to get one shot into her head before an instructor could stop her. She
survived, but with extensive brain damage. It still gives me the willies
just thinking about it.

'Sounds like the right way to do it.

Suicide is a selfish act.

Thanks for the offer, and I may take you up on it someday. I'm pretty
certain that I mentioned it before, but I'm actually a former NRA
member. I used to shoot (a LONG time ago) .22 target rifles. 8th bar
sharpshooter is as far as I went with that.On a casual basis, I used
to frequent an indoor range on Rt 46 in Lodi (I think, it was maybe 35
years ago). I had a change of directions (maybe you could say I grew
up), and haven't touched a rifle or handgun since, except for a couple
of turkey shoots at the local police range.

Maybe someday, but not likely for self-defense. Just for fun.

Ha! Me too! Eight bars. At age 12. My eyes were better then. g

OK. I much prefer rifles, but there are very few rifle ranges in NJ, unless
you join a club. So I shoot handguns.

He probably doesnt. Felons and the mentally disturbed are not allowed

"I am for doing good to the poor, but I differ in opinion of the
means. I think the best way of doing good to the poor, is not
making them easy in poverty, but leading or driving them out of
it. In my youth I travelled much, and I observed in different
countries, that the more public provisions were made for the
poor the less they provided for themselves, and of course became
poorer. And, on the contrary, the less was done for them, the
more they did for themselves, and became richer." -- Benjamin

Simple rules to maintaining your collection or arms depot depending.

1. Don't brag about how many and what types of guns you have.

2. Secure them properly

3. Remember rule one.

This also applies to other valuable possessions.
