It certainly is easier said than done, even more so when you have to "be careful" with an audience. I understand his pain, I was a professional public speaker in a past life, couldn't do it now because I cuss too much and don't give enough of a shit what people think. Restricted audiences only.

I've had to teach a lot over the years using interpreters. It adds a whole other element, especially since they' aren't in my line of work, so they don't really understand what I'm talking about, and a lot of the lingo doesn't have a direct translation. I enjoyed the challenge. Just like Evan said at the end of that vid, without cussing "you're taking away all my skills."  :D

Yep, certainly easier to flow "unfiltered"  ;D.

That would have been very challenging for you and the interpreter finding words that fit.

Kop unfiltered is hilarious, no matter how it's translated. ;D

We got guns ;D

We sure do! Just no AR or semi auto for a standard license. Heck they just limited a lever action shotty to 5 shots. Bastards!

Pistols are a lot harder to get.

But yeah, we got guns, just not the type that do much to repel anyone stupid enough to cross the vast ocean to get to us! Lol!

Are you caliber limited?

Not that I know, however no one that I know really shoots a pistol over .45. Maybe collectors. 10 shot max.

Most guys at my club shoot 9mm. My buddy's club has a few who shoot .45 regularly.

For long arms, I don't believe there is a limit on calibre, but there are also magazine restrictions.

I've only been back into shooting for a few years after a layoff of just over 20 years, so don't take my word as gospel.

Let's move the conversation back to guns, and away from the laws regarding them.

Thanks.

Aww relax.

Where I was going was, a .50cal lever action packs quite the punch.

I'm sure it does! ðŸ'ðŸ» Who makes it?

I shot something at the range a while back, bolt action, not .50 cal but way larger than .303 or such. .400 or such. That gave a right royal kick. I can only imagine what a .50 cal would do.
