So I'm talking to my cousin at Thanksgiving dinner.
Me: I'm gonna get a single shot 223. Him: Why 223 guns are pointless. Me: So an AR is pointless? Him: Yes, what are you going to do with an AR? Me: Home defense. Him: No ones gonna break into your house and it only takes one shot anyway. Me: I'm prepared, and you can never have too much ammo. Him: You don't need 30 rounds, it only takes one shot. I don't even have any guns at my house. (guns are all at his grandfathers house) I'm not scared of people breaking in. Me: I'm not scared, I'm prepared. Him: Yeah prepared for a home invasion, just like the zombie apocalypse.  This is also the guy that goes deer hunting with an unloaded gun.

How does he know it will only take one shot? Because that's how many it takes James Bond with a .380??
Too many movies. It took 6 shots to stop Brown with a .40, and that was only after a head shot. Shot placement > caliber (at least with a hand gun) which is why rifles > pistols |

Today:
Me: I've got a rifle in this cool new round. (Describes 300 Body Odor) Cousin: Why do you buy all of that tactical stuff. My remmy 700 gets the job done just fine. Me: Why do you dislike technological progress? Tactical is just a buzzword to describe the latest advancements in firearm technology. Cousin: *shrug* That stuff is only good for shooting people. I got him on the right track after a longer conversation.

Ask him what his plan is for more than one robber. Then give him a paintball pistol, tell him to holster it. walk 30 feet away with three of your mutual friends then spin and charge him with a rubber knife covered in paint. The stains will change his mind Quote HistoryQuoted:

I prefer to tell them that for me, my AR15's are the guns that I feel I could kill and/or incapacitate the maximum number of people with, should the need arise for me to kill and/or incapacitate a large number of people.

After seeing that, he'll want one too. After that, shoot a few melons with an AR.... if he's got any intestinal fortitude he'll want one of them too. |
