1, I dont like guns, they're dangerous

 

No there not. I could have a loaded gun pointed at my head for a hundred years and still be fine, its muppets pulling the trigger that VERY RARELY cause incidents.

 

 

2, Especially around a group of testosterone laden alpha male tree surgeons, all trying to be harder than each other.

 

You speak for yourself on that one. There is a time for banter and a time for seriousness. I have held a FAC for nearly 4 years and a SGC for nearly 8, I have taught many friends to shoot who you have a great laugh with most of the time but it change when you play with guns.

 

I instruct people weekly on safety/shooting ethics/ best practice on various live quarry shoots and the mood on the drive is very different to that in the pub after.

No being serious for a mo, nothings safe in the wrong hands, I ve been shooting since the age of 4 and payed to have a gun on a syndicate shoot at the age of 13, Im now 33 and have seen a few things that put me off shooting with anybody except 2 very close friends,

 

Yeah I know exactly what you mean, there are very few people that I feel safe around. Whenever I'm out shooting with someone that I've never shot with before I find myself forever watching what they're doing and not really enjoying the shoot myself.

So you'd gladly sit in a sealed room with a chimpanzee holding a loaded automatic then?

 

Anyway, keep your pants on, that was the best bite I've had in years, cheers:001_tt2:
