No confiscation or citation. They have more important things to do.
To hell with the law! It's for other people. smh

My friends have a small range in their backyard they built for their daughters.
Might ask them if I can try it out (alone) while they stay inside and we videochat.
All the crazy steps we must take for even the simplest little fun.

No, ammo is too expensive and scarce these days. Saving it for when I need it.

[QUOTE=azrider;2687867]Was thinking of driving up North to Seven Springs and shooting with the boy later today.

Is there a shooting range at Seven Springs or are you planning a wildcat shoot on public lands?

Mods, can you lock this thread? It's way off topic.

Great idea. Most every thread RFC starts is way OT.

The OP posted a safe and responsible scenario for use. No reason for this to become a shouting match one way or the other.

72gmc, I agree with you about no need for this thread to devolve, but it's still not a topic relevant to a cycling forum. Just take the discussion to a more suitable venue.

Around here a 12 Gauge 00 buckshot costs about $2 nowadays. That is if you can find them in stock.

I've not gone shooting in a couple years but I still have my 1955 Enfield SMLE MK4. You have to try and miss targets with that thing becasue it's so incredibly accurate.

But you know maybe nows a good time to put the hobbies on hold. It can wait, can't it?

Really? Shooting an air pistol in your back yard in a residential area is safe and responsible?

Enough. If you want to argue with RFC take it to private messaging. If you find the thread offensive ignore it.
