so I'm playing at a local field with my KP-3. a late teens kid comes up, is admiring it, I offer to let him shoot a few rounds.

He shoulders the rifle, and isn't sure where to put his off hand after pumping. I explain that you're supposed to leave your hand on the pump.

His exact words were "Why would anyone hold a gun that way?"

um... 125 million rednecks can't be wrong. ;-)

no real point, just chuckling

haha, gotta love it. just kinda funny how some people don't get the basic concepts of cormfort and safety.

quick question? was he holding it like what one of those "bad *** gangsters" do in the movies? you know w/ one hand why'll firing like a precision surgeon?

To answer the question of how he was holding it, he'd pump, then move his hand to the metal bracket that holds the tank, he was looking for the vertical regulator. ;-)

and before a bunch of rust-and-primer pickup trucks show up in my front yard, my "rednecks" comment should be taken with the understanding that I see the entire country as being filled with three types of people: Rednecks, Yankees, and Hippies.

for myself, I was raised a Yankee, moved to become a Hippie, and cook ribs, biscuits, and gravy like a Redneck. ;-)
