in response to the "how gay are you" thread, i have decided to post this test.

http://www.okcupid.com/tests/take?testid=1824039521290665504

its about how gun-knowledgeable you are. watching lots of action movies will not help you in this test.

and no cheating!!! its just not the same.

Anyway, i got 84% = NRA member.

kickass.

<edit> for Brownie points, name the Rifle pictured before the start of the test, along with its country of Origin and its Calibre

That's kind of suprising becasue I didn't think I knew all that much about firearms trivia. I can't wait until a month from now when I can apply for a concealed carry permit.

Curse you americans!!!

Ever had a burglar with a gun come into your home in the middle of the night? I have. Does having one myself make me a fool? It allowed me to hold him at gunpoint until the police arrived. If I hadn't had it .....

Oh, and nobody got hurt.

I think sweeping generalisations are for fools that don't have the wit, or experience, to realise that not everybody lives as they do, or faces the same risks.

what a troubling Experience for you

i'm glad that you were able to Utilise Firearms in a Sensible and useful way, unlike many other people in this world.

Now, can we leave the "guns, good/bad" debate out of this thread?

Aod · 16 May 2006 at 17:13

Aod · 16 May 2006 at 17:15

Aod · 16 May 2006 at 17:35

Aod · 16 May 2006 at 17:39

you're so close you know.

here's the picture:

Aod · 16 May 2006 at 17:39

if you read the page about the MD-3, you'll get the answer.

Aod · 16 May 2006 at 17:50

on a scale of 0-1, 0.99(r) don't give a hoot

You've been trained in the art of the rifle. When you're handed a firearm, you can generally use it competently. The local firing range knows you on a first-name basis.

well done

Aod · 16 May 2006 at 17:55

its the only one thats true.

its also why the L-86 LSW (that's actually used as a DMR) has a small handle at the bottom of the stock, because if you held it in the standard MG position while prone, you'd cut your fingers off :eek:

Aod · 16 May 2006 at 17:58

you didn't even try?

lazy!!!
