He let me sample his .22 and .17 arsenal, which consisted of the exact same .22 rifle I have, and several handguns. The .17 was a pretty interesting gun, as the bullets are basically .22 magnum shells with .17 slugs in them.
I only did target shooting, and because Uncle Bob has neighbors, I couldn't shoot the big stuff, but it was fun. My favorite was his Taurus 9-shot revolver. It was the most accurate, in my opinion.
I challenged my mother to a target shooting competition, and...she....won. This doesn't decrease my manliness, though, because my mother was on the Nation Guard rifle team for a year or two after high school. Uncle Bob calls her "Deadeye" Snyder.
Nope, that's beside the point. Manliness isn't subject to petty "reason," is it?
I'll never get to fire thompsons and AK-47s like you Americans get to every day.
