Poll: Gamers and guns

[BlueMage]

Decent shot with the air rifles at the show (when the sights are calibrated correctly) but otherwise, nah, never fired a gun.

Don't really think I'm missing anything - it's just point'n'click right?

Closest thing would be at the fair, with air guns.

And that one time we went out to go do some paintball with our class. Everybody expected me to eradicate the other team the whole time, because they knew I played way too many games.

Thank you, Brothers in Arms. The 4 F's helped me humiliate the other team. First round, I already had 5 people down on my own, 6th in my scope (but ran out of ammo, bah).

The matches after that, the opponents made it a top priority to take me out, severely limiting my flanking capabilities :<

I've fired an air rifle at cans. Twice.

 

[N.K]

I've fired some small bolt-action rifle at a range I wasn't very old so I had no real clue what kind of gun it was exactly.

I was a pretty decent shot as well.

I have been in the army, so I have fired several rifles, light and heavy m/gs, anti-tank guns and so on. Also have fired my Dad's .22 and shotgun alot. I'm a good shot.

Although I don't own a gun myself I have been out to the range with an ex-national pistol/rifleman. I've shoot everything from .22 target pistols, .40, 9mm, .45 and a FN assualt rifle once, much fun.

Depends on the range. At the range that most of the people here have used guns, droppage is hardly going to be an issue. When it comes to combat range, however, it's a different story.

I was being facetious mate - engineer, know about physics and such.

I'm from Alabama AND I was in the Army for a while. I've shot more firearms than I could begin to remember. My favorite is definitely my own Glock 28, but the Mark 19 was loads of fun to shoot.

 

[BallPtPenTheif]

i hate that everytime i've gone shooting, the people i go with are casual gun owners so their iron sights are always off. it's annoying when you spend more time adjusting your shot than hitting targets.

 

[ElArabDeMagnifico]

I'm a god damn gun nut lol, if I'm not at the range I'm playing paintball or something.

My family are farm people-- every time I visit, my grandfather slaps me behind a rifle, a shotgun, and a handgun.
Mind you, handguns are now illegal in my province, so I guess that longstanding tradition is about to die.

I'm no MARKSWOMAN, persay, but I am comfortable with a gun in my hands.
I'm inclined to think my aim is better with the real thing. I'm a casual shooter-gamer, but I just get mauled in online multiplayer modes. LowLady is decidedly not hardcore.

 

[NeedAUserName]

I would like to fire a gun, a proper gun, but being British thats very,very hard to achieve, unless I join the army

 

[LewsTherin]

Piff...Guns are for sissies. I make all my kills with my Holy Avenger +16.
It shoots 30-dice fireballs.

Was on the Air Rifle team in my ROTC unit. I have no interest in shooting living creatures, and haven't shot in YEARS, but it was pretty fun. I have some horrible, horrible stories from my times there, too.
