• We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.
  • The forum will be down for about an hour this weekend for maintenance. I apologize for the inconvenience.

Sometimes I'll get a "Is that a 9mm?" (Already they dunno squat...)
I get that one a lot too... Why is it people always assume a 9mm is the only gun that exists? I guess I get the "Is that a real gun?" question more. I always just say "No, its a squirt gun".

OH yeah... I've had that: "Is that supposed to be a gun"... and "Is that a 'real' gun?" said in my direction a few times.

The 'supposed to be' one always throws me for a loop. I once said... "Are you supposed to be an idiot" back... but now I don't say anything. The 'real gun' query is equally moronic unless it's from a kid. I had one ask why I was carrying a rifle. She got 'the look'. (It was my .45) I mean... if they dunno a rifle from a pistol... why bother? This never happened back in the '60's 'n into the '90's. Why now?

Anybody have any ideas? The media... Brady propaganda... more noobs... what?
I got that one! Maybe it was the same lady? I asked "Why are you carrying your car?"

Deer in the headlights. I couldn't prevent laughing. Amazing how hateful the clueless are.
