| | | Well, just like Wilky said, I was born into it. My grandfather was a gun dealer. He started in 1946 and stopped sometime in the early 90's. He traveled the show circuit, and developed quite a reputation. Even though he was an uneducated farm boy, he developed an incredible knowledge of firearms. He had so many firearms come into, and leave, his possession that I could never name them all. Naturally, my father was also interested in firearms, having grown up with them and traveled to many shows with grandpa. Pops developed a love for modern firearms. He went on to shoot for the Air Force team, become an NRA instructor in handguns, rifles, & shotguns, and pretty much master the art of reloading. He was also the Virginia state representative for Sporting Clays. As for me, I love all firearms. Old and new. With those two influences, it couldn't have been any other way. I started shooting at 5 years old, and have never stopped. Hell, I never even owned a BB gun. Why would I? I had real guns! ps - Our family is from the mountains of SW Virginia. Just another factor in always having firearms around.

| | | Posted by MHInc She's a bone rack, doesn't do it for me, I would take the Krinkov over her
| Posted by RailGuy88 I actually meant "wow" on Porkchop's comment... Both the girl and the gun aren't that impressive. Seen better girls, and seen better guns.
| Fellas, allow me to explain myself. 1) I was quoting a line from "Full Metal Jacket". I thought it fit with the chick and the AK. 2) When you reach my age, you stop caring about wether a woman is a little too thin or a little too heavy!

| | | where i live, we all have weapons of some sort. My friend Willards' house was an arsenal when we were kids. One room of the house was nothing but rifles and ammunition, cleaning kits, for said rifles. Down one wall, across the far wall and back up the other one... rifles, shotguns. Upstairs, in his dads' room was nothing but pistols and the accessories for them. The first pistol I ever fired was a .357 magnum and it damn near broke my wrist, but wow, what a rush. as i said, guns are just a way of life here... there are virtually no homes without them and the majority of people with them know how to use them.
