Half, maybe more, of the young guys I know, come around here to use the range, or have accuracy questions, whatever...have been raised by Mom. Not bad young men, just not exposed to the gun and hunting culture like us 70 somethings. For instance, I went to a high school that fielded a smallbore rifle team and had a well equipped indoor range. I can't tell you how many kids taking woodshop built rifle stocks for their senior year. My junior high school hosted Remington exhibition shooters...for years the school proudly displayed in the trophy case a large copper sheet with the near perfect silhouette of an Indian head in full warbonnet outlined with .22 caliber bulletholes. That's gun culture.


Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.
