I'm not bad with most types of guns, but there are models that just baffel the heck outa my ability to line up a sight. Several years ago a person I worked with met me out at a local range with a new gun he had purchased. It was some target shooting space age looking thing that was hald carbon fiber, half plastic, half titanium, and half kryptonite. . . . year I know thats more than 100%. Anyway this thing was free floated bare barreled with no handgrip and some kinda autorangefinding electronic recticle thingamajobber with a enhanced power add on, a light, and its own targetting satelite. I did good to hit paper with it. He was making nice little clover leafs. But then again he just about coulda let it shoot itself and gone to lunch with all the crapola hanging offa that thing. So I did what any red blooded American male would do. I pulled out an iron sighted 45 colt lever carbine and matched him pretty much group for group at up to the 75 yard line. beyond that it was all pans and I rang as many as he did.

"The gun has been called the great equalizer, meaning that a small person with a gun is equal to a large person, but it is a great equalizer in another way, too. It insures that the people are the equal of their government whenever that government forgets that it is servant and not master of the governed." - 40th President of the United States Ronald Reagan 1911-2004
