    It's okay, they're unloaded...... Yes, we have learned a lot, but we still see this all the time in photo in magazines, movie posters and all the other training aids for the masses.
    Just a Hairy Special Snowflake supply clerk with no field experience, shooting an Asymetric carbine as a Try Hard. Snarky and easily butt hurt. Favorite animal is the Cape Buffalo....likely indicative of a personality disorder.
