Shooting hammer guns

[Seth Mackay-Smith]

Yes. The number of times I've gotten an unexpected adrenaline rush from hunting with guys who "know guns", be they cops or just longtime hunters, I couldn't count. I really like seeing what other folks do to keep safe, as it helps show that is not about how much you've shot - it's about respecting the situation and those you hunt with.

I have hunted with people who didn't know how to handle guns, I have shot skeet with people who didn't know how to handle guns, I have shot competitive box birds and Columbaire with people who didn't know how to handle guns. If any of those people look like they are going to harm someone, it is up to me to handle the situation, and I always have. I know people who have shot dogs, and if I had been on the same hunt, they never would have shot a dog. The fellow who shot a dog was a friend, a friend who didn't know how to handle a gun, even though he owned hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of shotguns. I can't imagine what a Columbaire thinks of the gun handling that sometimes goes on when he is throwing birds.
