Who Here Owns An AR 15?

I have been wanting an AR for many years now.  I really don't need one.  I just like shooting them.  They are fun to shoot.  With the upcoming election, there is that possibility that I might not be able to go purchase one any time I want to in the very near future.  Here is my problem, I have the money to buy one but it would be stretching things  little bit.  Ammo is outrageous right now so I really can't afford to shoot it like I would like.  The one positive thing is I would be able to turn a bit of a profit if I ever decide I need the money.  I need to make up my mind before the election because if Obama wins, the next day, they are going to start becoming real hard to get hold of.  Obama has already said that he will get rid of them.  Not sure what to do.

Gun Permit

Saturday I went and took my ccw class or gun carry permit class. It was from 8 in the morning until 6:15. Class was infomative even for somebody who has shot all their life. the only part of the day I didn't like was actually shooting. I got stuck between two women who had never touched a gun before. Sorry but this isn't the place to learn. You should know how to shoot before you get a permit. The lady to my left unpacked her gun for the first time since buying it at the range. The first distance we shot from was two yards. The intructor was trying to calm everybody down and had this lady pick up a rock and hit the target with it. She hit it dead center. Her first shot with a gun barely nicked the targets shoulder. These were full size human silhouetes. She did better with a fricken rock. At least she was safe. She kept her muzzle pointed downrange. Not the idiot on the other side of me. We weren't suppose to shoot until the instructor said fire. She got FI out and bam. You weren't even suppose to have your finger on the trigger yet. During one part of the shooting, we were suppose to shoot one shot when the intructor said fire and wait until they said fire again before we shot. This crazy lady beside me has shot off three shots before the instructor got finished saying fire. At one point she is loading her magazine and sticking the bullets in backwards. I kid you not. She couldn't figure out why the magazine wouldn't go into the gun. The crappy part for me is to actually get the permit, I have to have a birth certificate. Some how I have lost mine. I have dismantled the house looking for it. Gone. I was born in another state and was adopted at 12 days old. This just adds to the problem. Sure hope they can find it in a timely manner.

CCW Permit

On Saturday I will be taking a class that will allow me to carry a gun.  Does this make me a gun nut?  Probably won't even carry.  Will stick one in the car when we travel.  What are your thoughts on people who carry guns?  Anybody else out there have there permit?  Discuss.

Unreadable Disc?

I went down last night and decided to play a little Tiger Woods 09.  I stick the disc in and it says there is an update.  It updates and comes back on and says that the disc is unreadable and I need to clean the disc or restart the system.  I pull the disc out and check it out.  The thing is spotless.  I am very anal about these things I am telling you, it is perfect.  I reboot the system and same thing happens.  I stick in two other games and they all need an update (odd) but after the update, they work fine.  Stick Tiger Woods in and unreadable.  The thing is spotless.  There isn't a finger print on it better yet a scratch.  What is going on?  Anybody else ever have this happen to them?  Anything I can do to fix it? 

Shooting

I finally got to shoot my new Glock last night. I love my new .40. I took a friend to the range with me last night that just got into shooting. He is wanting to get a gun and doesn't really know what he wants to get. After shooting the Glock, he is ready to go buy. I also took a few .22s along and he liked shooting them but he wants a Glock now. I am going to keep trying to talk him into a .22. They are just so much more economical to shoot. 500 rounds of .22 costs about the same as 50 rounds of .40.

But dang that Glock is fun.
