buckhunter,

I agree with you. About 20 years ago a newby bought a M29 6-inch and a box of factory Mag loads. He showed up about 0800 on Saturday at the club outdoor range where I was the only other person on the range. Newby had no target, no stapler and NO ear muffs. I stapled up a target at 25 yards and offered him my muffs while I sat in my nearby truck. Newby said, "No thanks, I will only shoot 6 rounds." He shot six and left the range. A week later at the monthly club meeting, Newby said, "I should have borrowed your muffs. My ears 'Rang' for 4 days, I had a headache and mised two days of work." I asked Newby why he did not pay $10 for muffs when he paid $600 for a M-29 and $35.00 for a box of ammo? Newby said, "Because I was only going to shoot six rounds." GO FIGURE!
