I was at a charity event. Trap shooting was the game, everyone had jeans/button ups or polos and those shooters vests. I come in wearing an arcteryx alpha outfit and get super weird looks, THEN one guy asks were I'm going to keep my shells, and I pull a cord from my belt holing a fold up blue force gear drop pouch. He laughs and walks away. I step up to the first stating, and put on a pair of sordins.... they must not have known that I have super hearing while wearing them since they were all like, "look at that weirdo" from behind me. THEN the monsoon rain comes, I stay dry as a bone, and end up getting a lot of, "hey that outfit was a good idea".
CSB? Not sure what that means. |

Everybody hates the gear heads until their plans for a perfect afternoon go to shit.

Trap snobs can be snobs but appropriate attire for the event is never a bad idea.

How did you shoot?
They were "all" like that huh? Fascinating. |

I like showing up to the trap range with my "over under" Benelli. 24in m2 with an extended mag tube.

If you're going to do that, you have to then dominate the event.
I showed up at a rabbit hunt with my home defense 870 with a mag extension and the older guys said "that looks like a gun for someone who misses a lot..." I killed 6 rabbits with 6 shots that day and the rest of the group got 2 with about a dozen shots fired. |

Someone needs to do trap with an SBS or AOW just to really rub it in.

Everybody hates the gear heads until their plans for a perfect afternoon go to shit. View Quote Yup. I secretly love it when gear haters ask to borrow my stuff. Especially my fudd friends. I love it when my fudd friends critisize my ammo stash. When they can't find slugs the night before deer season starts, guess who they call? "Hey udder, I can't find any ammo. I drove all over the city and there is nothing. I only need a few rounds..." |

I want to know who makes the skinny tactical pants he wears. I want some for me!
I would be so cool at gun shows |

Why are you paying attention to what other people think of you?

Someone sure is proud of his fancy named gear..... It helps him shoot better. Never mind that he didn't share those details with us. I don't see where the OP said it helped him shoot better, it just kept him dry. |

OP name dropped the "celebrity" he strove to look like, bragged up the brand name of his clothing, and referred to his all matching ensemble as an outfit.
OP, they were looking at you like that because mincing around like a faggot in Gucci (even tactical Gucci) is unusual in that age-group and demographic. Even the old queers that hang in those circles don't prance around like a fucking Disney Princess that just dragged her ass through a Call of Duty costume party. Holy fucking absence of substance Batman. |

I'm sure my post was every bit as accurate as his assessment that every single person - sorry, "fudd" - at that shoot was laughing at him. OP invented rain gear. Expensive rain gear. |

How did their clothes tell you this about them? Imagine, showing up to a shotgun shoot with shotgun shoot clothes! What fuddaciousness! Do they even tacticool, bro? |

Everyone had time to make it about 40% of the way through the course before they called the event and made everyone take their golf carts back to the club house.

Story would have been the same if you'd showed up in flip flops, worn out jeans, and a wife beater.

I don't think that means they want to ban AR stuff necessarily, just raise and eyebrow as guys who like to own them with the, "why do you need that" attitude. Really they were all a great group of guys, we ended up raising a lot of money for leukemia, and there was very little competition if any. The main thing is that that ark teryx stuff is actually amazing for rain, this was the first time I have had it on in a rain that was that intense. It did perform. |

View Quote Saying "the event was rained out" in response to a question of "how do you shoot," rarely implies you, well, did some shooting. |

Just more proof that doing what you think is right > what the herd thinks is right.
