Yuma is a few hours away. And all you need to buy ammo is a state issued ID proving you are 18 or older.

‘Where your talents and the needs of the world cross, there lies your vocation.’
— Aristotle
‘This is a gift that I have, simple, simple; a foolish extravagant spirit full of forms, figures, shapes, objects, ideas, apprehensions, motions, revolutions; these are begot in the ventricle of memory, nourished in the womb of pia mater, and delivered upon the mellowing of occasion.’
— William Shakespeare
non nobis solum nati sumus ortusque nostri partem patria vindicat
-Cicero
(We are not born of ourselves alone, our country {or people} have a share in us)
Utilizing only a portion of our talents; and only a partition of our potential passes unattainable torrents to those without these gifts. I wouldn't be able to look myself in the mirror if I chose such an easy way out.
After becoming a riflemen then what? My service to the world ends after I prove to it that I can shoot?
If their was a choice which required more of me then Nuke; and had the potential for more important endeavors during, and especially after; I'd be chasing it instead. My heart desires shooting - the world had no intention of dedicating me to it.
Hopefully you catch how I feel so there can be no more silly questions on the subject,
(I'm sure at some point some of you felt similarly)

Way back when I was on the Bainbridge, CGN-25, we were part of the "engine room defense team" so with the pleasure of that assignment we occasionally were handed M-14's. We used those to shoot the ocean from the fantail. Big bullet, nice sound. We also had the chance to shoot skeet from the fantail with 12 gauge shotguns provided by the rec committee. It was something like 50 cents a shot. Judging by earlier posts it looks like guns aren't for sailors anymore
