Last Minute Parting Gift

I was on my way out the door when one of the ladies in IT asked, "Hey do you want some ammo?" I thought she was kidding, so I said, "Sure. Wacha got?" She said, "I'm not sure. It's left overs from my divorce a couple of years ago, and I just found it in the closet. It's in my truck if you want to check it out." Turns out she had over 100 rounds of 12-gauge bird shot, and 50 rounds of .243win. I don't have guns for the ammo, but you know me: You can never have too much ammo - unless you're swimming, or on fire.

Well, that's a new one. I guess the flirtatious response would be "no thanks, my gun packs enough ammo!" Marc

YET! And I am a bit surprised that you don't have a 12-gauge. They are a bit like 9mm or 5.56mm. Very common size, realitively inexpensive. Plus there is something psychological about the sound of a pump action that all you have to do is hear it and people decide that what they are doing is a very bad idea. Sort of like a big dog, you hear the bark, you decide that there are better and easier options elsewhere for illegal activities.

In the municipality I work, you 2 would be criminals in about 4 different ways. Ex: It's illegal to possess ammo for a weapon you don't own.

Have fun! If someone offers to let you try "The Mule" don't.
It was broke, so I fixed it.

Hopefully their aim is better than JSOP's. If you have to go, better to go quickly.

"Why don't you tie a kerosene-soaked rag around your ankles so the ants won't climb up and eat your candy ass." - Dale Earnhardt, 1997I highly recommend getting a .243 rifle to go with the ammo. It's a fun caliber to shoot - very flat, fast trajectory - though it's not too great in thick brush. I once had a Browning .243 lever rifle that was a joy to shoot. If the storage company who had it locked up and illegally sold my unit hadn't screwed up, it would be my favorite firearm today.

Hogwash! The first time I got to use a Desert Eagle .50 or a Taurus 500 I jumped at the chance. Just make sure they give you proper guidance on how to hold the thing and how to hold yourself when you finally pull the trigger.
Our mule is a an old 30's 40's Sears, Roebuck & Co. 12 Ga, with no recoil pad. Reserved for the noob lemme at 'em know it alls at the trap shoots. ;)

That is similar to what I used while learning to shoot trap. It was a single shot 12 gauge with a solid wood stock. I had a bruise every day from that thing. Builds character I say!

Forces you to learn good trigger squeeze technique and proper stance that's for sure.

Funny enough, while learning rifle it was always about breath control and learning to squeeze the trigger. While learning to shoot trap, the instructor prefered "Just point it and slap the trigger!" Seemed to work fine for me, but I always wondered if that was right or not. The guy was deaf as a post from years of being an instructor and never using hearing protection. But try to talk quietly 100+ ft away while he was on the line teaching and then he could somehow hear you!
