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 The new generation of shooters thinks plastic is a normal stock material and that wood is weird, outdated and obsolete.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 |
| [The American Colonies were] all democratic governments, where the power is in the hands of the people and where there is not the least difficulty or jealousy about putting arms into the hands of every man in the country. [European countries should not] be ignorant of the strength and the force of such a form of government and how strenuously and almost wonderfully people living under one have sometimes exerted themselves in defence of their rights and liberties and how fatally it has ended with many a man and many a state who have entered into quarrels, wars and contests with them. — George Mason, "Remarks on Annual Elections for the Fairfax Independent Company" in The Papers of George Mason, 1725-1792, ed Robert A. Rutland (Chapel Hill, 1970). |
