Just came back from the range. The pistol lanes were about 2/3 female...inlcuding some rather obvious lesbian couples with interesting guns (.44 cowboy revolvers which they used to good effect) and a lot of other couples, too.
In the rifle bay (which was populated mostly by older Vietnamese for tonight) I ran into two cops with .45 and .40 Glocks who really could shoot! Wouldn't want to mess with them.
So there, two stereotypes so favored on TFL and other boards bite the dust. Of couse, I am only talking about a tiny sample here...
BTW, I have faith in the future in part because I saw gun owners evolve from the critters going ape**** in Bower's to civilized and gentle discourse at TFL...and I fully expect us to outgrow the latest frustrations as well.
For obligatory gun content: I shot a USP45 and Glock 21 side by side...the USP is a lovely sporting gun...I'd trust the G21 to save my butt in combat. SImpler manual of arms outweights lesser trigger, sighter and heavier recoil.
BTW, I would imagine $450 is a decent price for a used G21 in very good shape with two 13rd mags, right?
