[TriLUG] OT: Guns

[Warren Myers]

I know lots of people who both claim to be christian and not who go to pdhsc

they have the nicer of the two indoor ranges in raleigh that i have been to
(eagle1 being the other)

the big thing i didn't like about eagle1 was their lack of ventilation -
after every shot the cordite smell was pretty strong
