I totally just got a BB gun from X-mas. I'm pretty damn excited about this.

Oh man, when I saw this I was thinking "Oh man, Chuck should see this, so he doesn't think EVERYONE on GTI are gunphobic liberals."
Shoot someone's eye out with that thing, Manny.
i see everything! this place could use a few more gunz, lets be more "gun liberal".
It is TOTALLY pink!
My mom works at Daisy. Largest and oldest BB gun distributor/manufacturer
I don't think I've ever seen a pink BB gun.
I haven't been the market for a BB gun for a long time now though.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed that Patrick will get me one of those cute pink Crickets, but for some reason, I don't think he's in any hurry to put weaponry in my hands.
A Christmas Story is playing on TNT and I'm watching it. Yay for psychic overheards.
@ilikedginger - I'm not gunophobic. Hell, I own 3 of them. (Which is low for this state.)
i wanna say "you'll shoot your eye out" but clearly thats what everyone is thinking.
@Skanko:
A Ruger P94 .40
A 20 Gauge Semi-Auto shotgun (I love clay pigeon shooting, but suck a lot with a 12 gauge.)
A Marlin Model 880 .22 Long Rifle with a scope. (It's fun to plink stuff with.)
I'm not gunphobic either. I was raised by a cop though, who took me to the range - at 11.
@jay - oooh a 40 cal. fun. i don't own any, as i am broke, but i've shot a few handguns at the range a bunch of times, and have done a b unch of clay pigeon shooting at my friends cabin with a variety of shotguns (both pump and semi-auto). it's fun. and amazingly good for clearing your mind. i find myself concentrating so much on the guns and using them safely and properly (partly b/c i will admit they scare the shit out of me, in the good way) that by the time i'm done, whatever i was worried about before is gone. at least for a little while.
I've gotten to shoot a Desert Eagle .50. It's pretty satisfying when you actually manage to hit your target.
ive got the Ruger Mini-14, and an NAA mini revolver in .22. that revolver is so small, im suprised people dont "keaster" them into prison.
@jay - thats the one gun i want to shoot i haven't yet. a big ol' desert eagle .50.
i love them. i want one. i don't care if it breaks my damn hand.
@Skanko - The Desert Eagle doesn't have that much kick to it really. It's so damned heavy that it doesn't go very far at all. However, after a couple of mags, you'll probably want to go shoot something else for a while. Like a .22.
:)
@jay - i can imagine. after holding that beast you wanna shoot something thats light and fun. like a 9mm or something. or yeah a .22
Funny thing is, I actually found my friend's .44 to be way more jarring. But then I believe he was loading his cases pretty hot.
I don't think you'll shoot your eye out because you wear glasses. Those have to count for some sort of protection.

Took fucking long enough too! I lived in Arkansas for how long and I never had one before!
