...because in the past week, I have learned how to use several weapons:
1) On Father's Day, my uncle taught me to shoot:
a. .357 Magnum handgun
b. .410 shotgun
c. .257 rifle
d. .270 rifle
e. .30-30 rifle
f. 12-gauge shotgun
He hunts, in case you were wondering, and also recently inherited about half of these guns. I killed several plastic bottles and soda cans, and acquired some nice bruises on my shoulder. My favorites to shoot were the .357 Magnum (you know you watch too many cop procedurals when you have a perfect grip the first time out) and the Remington .257, which had a gorgeous scope in addition to being a very nice gun.
2) KNIVES.
The knife-throwing act at the event I worked tonight were bored and willing to show me some basic knife-throwing, at which I am apparently a natural. It was super fun, I have to admit. :)
