And the Pink Pistol shoot is on Saturday. Come have lunch with us and then c'mon to the range. You can rent a gun there or I'll show you how to shoot one of ours.

Cool. I've been looking for a place I can rent a gun for a coupla hours. How long do I have before I need to bring it back? Are there overdue charges?

For those who aren't familar, most ranges rent guns for use on their range only. They take a very dim view of you leaving still holding the gun, which is why they will hold your driver's licence while you shoot.

The place I go to rents out class III weapons.

Just to let you know up front, though, they chain them to the lane ...

Slang, a cane would work. Something nice and sturdy. Not only will it assist me with walking if necessary, but then I can smack the shit out of people with it and play dumb. You can't really play dumb with a bullet, unless other people around you have guns too. (I don't know how that bullet got there...strange.

)

You know, I used to shoot guns often when I was in Scouts. I was never a good shot though...I can remember only hitting a target one time, with a rifle. Although, I almost took out a Scout leader once. Complete accident...I thought this .22 handgun had jammed b/c the trigger didn't "feel" right...turns out it was a hair trigger. No one got hurt, thank God. And it didn't freak me out too bad, as I shot several guns after that incident...though it's probably been about 9 or 10 years now.

While I appreciate the offer, I must decline. Shepps and I will be trying to figure out my computer on Saturday.

I can hook you up witha a good assult cane.

At our local gun shop they have a lovely black aluminum walking stick with an 8-ball for a head. When you twist it in exactly the right way, a CO2 cartridge is fired out of the cane as a projectile, propelled by the force of the gas in it. That sucker really has some velocity on it, and I'm sure it has considerable stopping power.

Cute.

(slang adds assault cane to his christmas wish list, and hopes Santa can somehow see it)
