We were at trap practice last night and one of the kids, a freshman, asked if he could shoot a couple of my guns. Sure, I said, that’s why I bring them to practice. He put down his Benelli Nova and picked up my BT99. “Wow. Wood guns feel really weird,” he said. The kid had never shot a gun with a wooden stock. I had never thought about it before, but I was taken aback to realize that it’s entirely possible to grow up in the 21st century shooting nothing but plastic stocked rifles, shotguns, and handguns. The new generation of shooters thinks plastic is a normal stock material and that wood is weird, outdated and obsolete. It doesn’t make me feel old, just sad. |

| The equity stored in fine wood stocked guns is increasing as synthetic is, lets face it cheap. |

TO REMEMBER |
| To trust arms in the hands of the people at large has, in Europe, been believed...to be an experiment fraught only with danger. Here by a long trial it has been proved to be perfectly harmless...If the government be equitable; if it be reasonable in its exactions; if proper attention be paid to the education of children in knowledge and religion, few men will be disposed to use arms, unless for their amusement, and for the defence of themselves and their country. — Timothy Dwight, Travels in New England and New York [London 1823] |
