And that proves what? That she cleans up pretty well? I'd be more surprised if a magazine couldn't make anyone look good. She's got panty hose on, professionally done makeup, not to mention some shopping done to "enhance" the pic.

She still looks better than your mom.

If that's her in the first pic, it was probably just after she had her most recent child.

-She has no backstop, shooting up a hill, who knows where her bullets are going
-Waving the gun around with her finger on the trigger, safety off, one in the chamber

Not to mention she missed five times, and can't cycle the bolt by herself. I thought she liked guns? Looks like it was the first time she's ever handled one :hmm:

People like you are the reason why she's famous. Seriously who cares.

The sight was misaligned.

Excuses, Chuck Norris doesn't need sights, he just uses the fist hidden in his chin.

OP,

What is your experience shooting rifles? I mean real ones too, not some CoD shit.

I don't play Call of Duty and I've been shooting guns since I was 7. thanks for your concern.

He didn't express any concern.
You failed so miserably at this thread, it was a valid question.

Damn straight. Your concern for how she handled her guns seems entirely based on reading a gun safety manual for first time gun owners or something.

So, my question stands, name makes, models, calibers, etc., of real guns that you've fired starting at age 7 or it will be really easy to think you're full of shit.

<= M1 Garand, M4, M16A1 and A2 variants, M9, Mk19, M2, M249, M240B, M60, S&W .44 Magnum, Remington 12 guage shotgun(s), unnamed pistols of various sizes and calibers (.22 up to .44)

I've been quail, pheasant, rabbit, and deer hunting. I've got 15+ years experience in the United States Army. What's your shooting experience again?

Enough to know that she has no clue what she's doing? I don't have as much shooting experience as you, sorry. I'm also not old like you apparently.

Since you want to turn this into a penis measuring contest.

Some sort of Savage bolt action in .17hmr, Ruger 10/22, S&W M&P 15-22, Ruger Mark III, a few different AR-15's in 5.56x45, Keltec Su-16, Saiga in 7.62x39, Mosin Nagant 91/30, S&W M&P 9mm, glock 22, and a couple of different revolers that my grandpa owns that I have forgotten what they were, Remington 870 12 gauge, Mossberg 500 & Mossberg 590 12 gauge, remington 1100.

Happy now?

You're just trying to look cool. You're making yourself look like a douche. Unsafe gun handling isn't cool because it gets people killed.

There was nothing inherently unsafe in what she did. No one, at any point was at risk of injury or death based on anything I saw in that video. It was a completely controlled situation. Also, who gives a shit if her finger was on the trigger if we don't know the status of the weapon with regards to a chambered round and/or the safety.

You are trying to state that she is an unsafe weapon handler based on a single situation on a reality show?

Uhm, we did know the status of the weapon. It had a round in the chamber and the safety was off.

There's nothing inherently unsafe about pointing an empty gun at your head and pulling the trigger either, does that make it a good idea?

Yes, that is what I'm saying. Problem?

 

[MarkXIX]

Never mind. This is clearly a case of me being beat with experience of some kind.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas to you too
