Girls With Guns [Wednesday afternoon]
The gun club had gotten handwavey notice to meet in the Danger Shop today, sans weapons.
If Makita and Triela looked positively gleeful, well, it was not their imaginations.
"Using a gun is about more than being able to shoot. You have to know when to shoot as well. You can't do either one properly without the other. And while the range is great for learning accuracy, you need something different to learn to pick your targets." That, and this was going to be fun.
"You also have to take into account the terrain, which you can't do on a range," Makita agreed. "So today, we're going hunting. You'll have to evaluate who is a target, who is not, and what to do in each case."
"On top of all that, ammunition management matters off the range. Knowing how many shots you have before you need to reload, knowing how many reloads you have left... All of that matters." Triela grinned. "So for this exercise, you're going to have to take all of it into account."
"The 'Shop will be providing us with everything we need," Makita continued. "Firearms, ammo, and if you 'die,' your gun won't work anymore. If you shoot and kill civilian, you're out. So try not to do that."
Triela nodded. No failing! It would make her look bad. "Just like in the real world, the bad guys don't come with giant flashing signs, but there are ways to pick them out." Especially these particular bad guys. "So trust your judgment out there."
"Any questions?" Well, if there were, too bad. TIme to get started!
