Heck, even I have shot on a range.
Which range, when, what firearms(s) did you shoot and who owned them ?

Superintendent John O'Hare, of Greater Manchester police, said: "This incident
shows the horrific consequence when guns are left in our community."
So, to get to be an ARV officer requires at least SIX weeks specialist training
plus regular training thereafter.
Doctor said:Sounds like a brainwashed American obsessed with guns. They are beyond
redemption. We don't have them, even the police are not armed here.
Look at the death rate through gunshot here and in the US then it is
clear we are doing the right thing by banning the things and even
Eeyore said:Are you suggesting they don't get any servicing at all ? That would void any warranty
and not be in the owner's (company's) interest.
All the company cars I've known about have standard routine service interval attention.
I dare say an engine would sieze on 60,000 mile old oil. At least the way the reps drive
them !
I dunno. Life as a pro footballer is short, and pretty hard.Eeyore said:It'll be better still when they get paid 10% or less of the insane salaries they
get now.

Guns=handguns.Jim said:Coyotes, rabbits, and squirrels are =people=?
Neil said:Complete crap.
You really don't understand firearms, do you ?
Non pump action non sawnoff.,BTW, you need to define 'shotgun' before you can say whether it is
banned in this country or not.
Neil said:How Steve finds the time or inclination to argue with someone with the
intellectually ability of treacle, defies me.
Several of the guns that I possess were specifically designed for
target shooting, not harming people.
Have you ever tried shooting a .22 free pistol such as a Morini ?
Do you know what one even looks like ?
Dave said:So your 'target shooting' guns are incapable of killing? According to Mr
Firth it's essential such a gun is pretty well the same as any other.
Does it fire some sort of soft bullet at a low velocity?
Eeyore said:It's not an argument, circular or otherwise. It's a FACT.
Besides, gun ownership has never been a popular desire for educated civilised
people anyway. Besides, what would I want one for ?
Jim said:You first. If you were to spot a Jack the Ripper in the act, you'd run
away like a coward. I'd splatter his brains all over the earth.....
We have a saying here, "Some folks just need killin'", and it's
true.....
Tell me Graham, have you ever been the victim of a violent crime? It's
no picnic.
Dave Plowman (News) said:So you consider these as potentially as lethal and easy to conceal as a
hand gun?
Woah another goalpost shifter!
" Why should a so called sport involve a device invented for killing or
maiming?"
Was the question I answered. Now you're off about something else. The
fact is that many sports involve the use of device invented for killing
or maiming. Does that make them any less of a sport or mean that the
practice or development of that sport should be stopped?
And most of these started out as hunting weapons. Not so the
hand gun. Its sole purpose is to kill or main man.
Nope, you're repeating that as a mantra and you're wrong like all the
others were.
So be it then. Let the 'sport' die. It's of no value anyway.
Of course, and lets stop all the other sports involving weapons, they're
of no value anyway.
I'm sure a dingy is capable of killing someone but not usually on the
streets of London.
We're talking about sport, if one can be simulated so can others. That
doesn't mean it's sensible to do so.
They are modified to prevent serious harm. Are the handguns used in
competition?
They are controlled to prevent any harm, that's good enough for me.
It may well do. But the problem is the possession of the handgun(s).
Why is it a problem? Can you name a target shooter who has killed
anyone?

If I had a gun, and someone else drew on me, I'd shoot.Dave said:Ah - you consider yourself some sort of Superman?
You seem to think villains are all inept cowards that will lie down and
wait to be shot by the self righteous. One of the Hollywood lies...

Yup. Keep those septics out of civilised western society I say.Jim said:I have a lovely yard sloping to a creek, with a high bluff on the other
side. Makes an ideal target range; I prefer old Coke cans. My children are
learning how to use a weapon, because a time is coming when they will need
to know how. Graham carries on about "civilised" people; Western nations are
admitting uncivilised people at a frenetic pace. It's devolution.....
Oh we do.Jim said:That is the most ass-inine thing I've ever heard you say, Eeyore. You
don't know me from Adam....
Jim said:Well, if the Brits would grow a spine and stand up like responsible
American gun owners and allow people to protect themselves instead of
ringing for the Bobbies and praying, t5his wouldn't be so.
But what do you expect in Londonistan?
To have one makes yo a criminal, so its a pretyy specious statement toJim said:Just wait til you see how many criminals have them; you blokes will
legalize possession by decent citizens in a second flat.
