I never understood why some shooters get such a bug up their butt over using the terms "magazine" and "clip" interchangeably. Okay, it's not correct, but we all knew what he meant. What's the big deal?

-S

Its an annoyance at best, but I find that most newer shooters get up in arms about stuff like bullet/cartridge, clip/mag, etc... I still poke my shooting buddies about it if I catch it, but its all in good fun.

One thing that strikes a nerve with me is "assault rifle" when talking about non-select-fire rifles. I guess everyone has their pet peeves and this is a message board full of "gun people", so you take the good with the bad I guess :)

You want performance out of the 5.7 you must shoot Elite Ammunition factory loads. Their Protector loads shoot over 2000 fps with 389 foot lbs. They have a link to youtube showing them shooting through a level ii vest and penetrating another 9 inches through ballistic gel at 15 feet. Not inexpensive though.:(

7.62x25 will do that easily. Not trying to poo poo on the 5.7x28.

A few days ago, I had the opportunity to educate a member of our local news media on why the semi-auto rifle she was holding was not an Assault Rifle. I probably said too much, but I got my point across.

So to skirt you guys getting your panties in a wad,... you would be ok with my calling them assault weapons? Since assault weapon is in reference to semi auto?

Some people just need something to cry about I guess. Why not just add everyone who disagrees with you to your ignore list? (specifically said towards EZ) :rolleyes2

Its funny that someone PM'd me that you were talking smack and I had to click on show-post just to see this (a mistake I won't be making again).

I added you to my ignore list because you wouldn't stop PMing me with trash-talk about other members and I wasn't disagreeing with you, I just didn't want to hear it anymore because I'm not a gossiping old woman.

Thanks for drudging it up on the public forum though - that helps prove my point. Its people like you that are the reason I visit this forum less and less.

I guess some people really should shoot more and type less.
