I worked for a bank for the last 5 years... Hired right out of HS and moved my way up. We sold out in April, and when the merger was finalized in November, I was left jobless... :\

Just been relaxing on some severance payments and unemployment... But need to get my butt in gear soon!

I must be getting old, I never thougtht that there would come a day when we would have to TEACH the general public how to stand, hold and squeeze the trigger, now there is a reason to bring back the draft and have all male and female go thru basic training during the summer of the junior/senior yr or the summer after senior yr. you would get more respectful young adults and more highly trained civilians to counter terrorizm. any thoughts?

Is there really a right or wrong way? No... There is a bad, ok, better, or a best way...

Can I hit the target at 50 or 100 yards the way I was standing? Yes. And I think that's what matters.

As for being a "respectful young adult" - you don't know me, not even the slightest... Don't judge me by how I stand and hold a rifle.
