It's Madness

 One more thing to tick off my bucket list. Shoot an AK47. Done.

The XY contingent spent a happy few hours at The Shooting Gallery Range. If I was sceptical about the colonials attitude to firearms before, I am even more so now. The fact that anyone (as long as they sign a waiver saying that they are not psychopaths, amongst other tick boxes) can pick up a shotgun, machine gun or a pistol, and blast away to their crazy little minds desire scares me shitless. As Owain pointed out, there was a greater than zero chance of us being shot.

Above is the range of lethal boys "toys" available, and in the cabinet is a selection of same to be bought from $300 upwards. 

I felt like a mujidaheen freedom fighter, a cossack trooper, a viet kong, a sandinista. Long live the revolution!
