Sacred Cows of Firearms Owners

[PackinMama]

An employee talking about their place of work that's posted:

"We don't have to worry about criminals bringing guns in here because we're posted."

[Guest Swamprunner]

A Glock will NEVER jam or malfunction.

"If I ever get shot with a .25 & I find out about it, I'll be seriously upset!"

"A small caliber pistol is worse than useless for self defense"

"Birdshot won't stop an attacker"

"Overkill" (What is 'underkill'??)

At the John Seviere range in halls:

RSO: Is that LC brass? (as he picks up a piece of the bench I am sitting at)

ME: Yes

RSO: That is the best brass in the world

ME: Really?

RSO: Yeah, you know why?

ME: Why is that?

RSO: Because it was made here in Tennessee

ME: No it isn't

RSO: Yes it is. That is what the LC means

ME: What?

RSO: "LC" stands for Lenoir City

ME: No it doesn't, it stands for Lake City

RSO: (Confused look) Lake City is in Tennessee right?

Same range, different RSO after a guy apparently shoots too fast with pistol:

RSO: Stop, Stop, Stop

Shooter: Why?

RSO: You are shooting too fast to be accurate

Shooter: I wanted to practice shooting fast

RSO: You only need to practice taking one shot

Shooter: Huh?

RSO: Like I do with my .45 because I am a sniper

Shooter: Huh? (with a WTF face)

RSO: You know, one shot, one kill like all snipers do

Shooter: (Rolls eyes then packs up and leaves)

Same range and yet another RSO:

RSO: Give me your soda bottle after you are done

ME: OK

A little while later I gave him the plastic Coke bottle thinking he needed a spit bottle

ME: Here is my soda bottle

RSO: Thanks

ME: No problem, what are you needing it for?

RSO: A silencer

ME: What do you mean?

RSO: I am going to attach the bottle to the end of my pistol to make it quiet

ME: You know that doesn't work right

RSO: Yes it will, I have seen it on TV and it makes them really quiet

After duct taping the bottle to the end he finally shoots it and yes it was loud. He begins to try to figure out why the gun isn't "Hollywood" quiet.

Not only does that not work, that is very much illegal.

And to think he did it with no less than 10 people standing around, watching and waiting for the results.

....Scopes: Bigger is always better.

I don't need binoculars, I'll just use my scope.

A $900 magnum rifle will be just fine with a $29 scope.

My favorite so far!! Spend big on rifle (...especially the hard kickers -- 7 mag/300 Win. Mag and up...); save money with BB gun scope!

Another great one by Deerslayer:

...Modern hollow points close the gap between 9mm and .45. ...

Keep up the good work!

Yeah... 1911s have been around for 100 yrs because of the millions of deaths caused by the grip safety.
