Well, duh, you get a pepper mill. A big one.

Alternatively, might I suggest you stop pretending you're Davy Crockett?

That's one way to stop a bear, I guess.

Yup, I think they only used them on the big red communist ones though. And those are extinct I'm pretty sure. Says something about annihilation though, you know, it's kinda permanent...

A lot of unsuccessful muggers and burglars I've met beg to differ.

How appropriate that the possibly-only-guy-on-here-who-wants-nothing-of-IRL-guns-other-than-distance ended up subconsciously suggesting a nuclear bazooka instead.

For a second there, I thought you were going to say zombies. Was mildly disappointed.

How much necro is too much necro?

I don't think the concept applies on a dead forum, necro away I'd say
Looks like a great tool for killing people or some such. Are you a military man or just a gun enthusiast? I can't remember

I just think they're neat. I shoot matches when I can. Run n Gun stuff: shoot, run, shoot, carry heavy thing, shoot some more. It's fun.

I shot a heavy machine gun not long ago, that was expensive!

Right, that does sound like fun! It's just hard to grasp things like that, here you need to go to a range for 2 years and keep a log and everything just so you can get a license for a .22 pistol. Plus we don't have that tradition of guns so I don't know many people who even own them.

That's rough.

In general I'd say about 75% of people who own guns just buy something that collects dust leaning against their bedroom wall.

Given how expensive ammo is I haven't been to the range in a long time.

It's gotten really insane. I haven't bought ammo in about a year. Fortunately I stocked up on reloading components.

I just got an M16 and an old Ruger P89 9mm from my dad. Still have my S&W .45, but I sold most of my others. I think my favorite rifle is my .22 Hatsan 95 Springer. Also have a couple pump action pellet guns that are fun to take out and about.
