Let me say it again quite clearly:TAMU_12 wrote: to just say we are the worst group when it comes to gun control just seems blatantly disrespectful.
As a group - and in a group - college-age kids are absolutely the worst gun-handlers bar none.
there's that sense of self establishment, so nothing i say is going to change your mind. my feelings aren't getting hurt over gun control, i just get irritated at ignorant statements like this. but if thinking this is what helps you sleep at night, then by all means go for it. 
I guess AndyC doesn't work near TAMU!!!!AndyC wrote:"Ignorant"
You've missed the point. As I said, some college-age kids are perfectly fine - so it's not aimed at them as individuals. I really hate generalizations as a rule, but my statement is a result of actually seeing it every weekend and having to deal with the consequences of their actions - the fact that you don't like it doesn't make it any less true *shrug*
I doubt that I'm the only one who has seen a group of ignorant, arrogant frat-boys at a range who act as if firearms are just fun toys that have zero consequences - so yes (and here I'm going to emphasize my point yet again in case you don't understand plain English), as a group, college-aged kids are the worst group - next worse are old men.
Get over yourself and have a nice day.
thats a great way, to say it and in those regards i agree with you.AndyC wrote:"Ignorant"

but for hating generalization, you sure do it a lot. i'm also in a fraternity and my friends that i talked about are also in it...its just starting to sound like you were the kid that got picked on in college and now you have something against Greeks.AndyC wrote:I doubt that I'm the only one who has seen a group of ignorant, arrogant frat-boys at a range who act as if firearms are just fun toys that have zero consequences - so yes (and here I'm going to emphasize my point yet again in case you don't understand plain English), as a group, college-aged kids are the worst group - next worse are old men.

just shows that maturity doesn't come with age. no, he's about three hours north of me. but that area explains a lot.TDDude wrote:AndyC wrote:I guess AndyC doesn't work near TAMU!!!!
haha true. if there wasn't someone to disagree with, life would be way too boring.rm9792 wrote:Dont let it bother you, the arguments on here are what make it interesting. Welcome to the board.
honestly man...its water under the bridge. like i said earlier, life would be way too boring if there wasn't someone to butt heads with sometimes.AndyC wrote:You're really going to play the jealousy-card?

Here's the deal: I wasn't raised in the USA - so I don't have any axe to grind concerning fraternities, Greeks or anything else. All I'm concerned with at the range is how you handle your firearms - period.
You take yourself way too seriouslyTAMU_12 wrote:
We'll make sure we only say things with which you agree, yassuh.TAMU_12 wrote:its real aggravating that i'm excited to get my CHL in and decided to join the forum, and this is the first thing i find.
All the above nonsense aside - it's nice to have a responsible young gun-owner on board, so welcome and I hope you get your CHL quickly

Kidding - we have a healthy Glock vs 1911 thing going here
Carry in good health and here's hoping you never have to use it; it's not fun
thats awesome. i love 1911s and i was going to carry one, but it was out of my budget. i plan on getting one once i graduate. rm9792 wrote:You can get a new Rock Island for 365 at one of the gun shows. Far superior to the Glock..(stirs the pot then runs)
my buddy has a rock island 1911 and likes it. but for now, i decided to go with the glock. once i get a 1911 i think i'll be looking at a springfield.
