How do guys not get embarased (Operator Hating Thread)

[Sabesimpson]

Some people just don't have any shame in their game!

There's something admirable about just not caring what people think.



Though not caring what people think is why Caligula was so slandered but, hey, whatever!

I like to wear my Walmart cargo pants to the range, makes me feel super high speed low drag

[Nicoman]

How about you mind your own business instead of criticizing other fellow calgunners for the way he dresses? If it makes him happy so be it? I bet you would critisize me for looking "thuggish" at the range but I am definitely no noob.

Myob live long.

[Rosereader]

He looks fabulous

I saw a guy at the range with ww2 gear. Is that better or worse?

[Rosereader]

If he was using a PS90 worse, if he was toting era-specific gear then he was on the money.

My buddy took 2 rounds to his front plates during a live shoot house drill. 3 more inches and it would have been me to my lower jaw. I would be dead. This was among combat veteran's with over 100 years of military and shooting experience. Not anyone's first rodeo.

I wouldn't train with Sonny Puzikas but that's just me.
Kidding.. glad you guys train safely.

So did you get shot? Or did you buddy get shot?

My first problem would be being asked to call someone by the name "Voodoo" to start with. Wearing that kind of gear and requiring people to call you Voodoo while filming a you tube video in Chino Ca is a little strange. Might want to increase the medication levels?

How do guys seriously not get embarrassed dressing like this for the range?

It's all part of their "operator" fantasy.

[Mayor McRifle]

I've found that the older I get, the less I care what people think. Maybe it's a matter of life experience, but it takes a long time for some people to get genuinely comfortable in their own skin. I think that's why most "posers" tend to be young.

And if you think we don't have interests in a hobby that is potentially life-ending... May I suggest another hobby?

Accidents happen. That is the fact of life. Don't blame someone for trying to mitigate those dangers.

Lots of people have experience shooting. That does not automatically make them safe shooters. Again, you might want to reevaluate who you go shooting with if you feel the need for full body armor when you go to the range. There is no such thing as an "accidental discharge" of a firearm. There are plenty of NEGLIGENT discharges though. I don't care how many years experience someone has with firearms, negligent is negligent and I don't want to be around idiots who are negligent. If you insist on shooting with people who you feel might be negligent and shoot you, that's your problem.

Not the best video to make the point.

I always wear boots, 5.11s, gloves and a Tshirt. I prefer to wear my chest rig and gear belt. I want to get used to the feel of shooting with that stuff on.

The big difference is in what people consider "shooting". I know a lot of people that sit in a chair with a table and just scope shoot far targets. They will spend 8 hours doing that under an easy up. thats fine.

I prefer to mooch as much as I can from courses I've taken. Which is not practical in swim shorts and flip flops. Prone in the dirt, running, rifle to pistol transition.... I dont want to walk back to my truck every time a mag goes dry.

I do like the occassional .22/skeet day. But most of my firearms were not purchased for pleasure, hunting, collecting or novelty. I like to train with them in the manner they were designed. Unfortunatley, I gotta get a bit tacticool with them.


Look at the boobs I'm shooting with VVVV How mnuch you figure they learned that day?
