Yay Shooting!
So today was like, an awesome day. I did my homework in like, half an hour, and then it was off to the range with dear father.
It was intense. First I got to fire a 1941 Lee Enfield. It was pretty cool, but it was louder, and there was more recoil than I had anticipated. I can totally see why those war vets are a bit hard of hearing. I had a hard time hearing one of the things with ear protection on. I can't imagine having like, hundreds of the things going off around me.
Anyway, the Enfield was pretty sweet. Then I got to shoot the M1 Garand, a gun I had heretofore been able to shoot only in Day of Defeat. It was pretty cool. It ejects the spent casings pretty quick, though, and I managed to hit the people next to me with one. Oh, and when the clip is finished, it actually makes that cool metallic noise, and pops the case up and out. Apparently it's the only gun to do that.
Then, after going a couple of relays with the Garand, I got to use some crazy, custom, .303 rifle with a scope. It was awesome. The crosshairs were the same as in Counter-Strike 1.6, and when I shot a bullseye I couldn't resist muttering "Headshot." My dad, of course, had no idea what I was talking about.
Overall, it was an excellent waste of an afternoon, although my shoulder is a little sore now.
The blog is running pretty shweetly, if I do say so myself. Look at all these posts! Woo.
And that's about all I have to say.
