Last month I did something I'd done only once before: I went to a range and shot some guns. Lots of guns. All shapes, ages and sizes.
This is a very strange thing to do for a guy born British. Guns feature nowhere in British culture.
Accordingly, I was unsurprised by the reaction of my mother when I called home and told her that I'd had a great time learning about firearms and discovering I wasn't a bad shot, even with a World War II Enfield. "That's the last thing I'd ever imagine you'd enjoy doing," she said to me. She wasn't being judgmental: It was an expression of genuine surprise.
"That's because you just can't imagine why nice or normal people would enjoy guns," I replied. "Because you don't know any. No Brits know any."
SVG and I spent three and a half hours shooting with this guy. He was great. I really like the bold part above. Now that is a sig line
