I did it...
...I actually fired two shots from a gun last night.
Rich and I went to the range and it was pretty empty except for one guy with a freakin' assault rifle...man that thing was loud. I was casually loading the magazine and that guys gun went off and i nearly jumped out of my skin! I actually started to cry and I told Rich I couldn't do it and I went and sat down. Every that guy and Rich shot their guns I could feel the floor vibrate and I could feel my stomach lurch.
Each time Rich emptied the magazine, I loaded it up for him again, and finally, at the last two bullets, and after the other guy left, I said I had to at least try. We used a smaller gun this time (.9mm) and found out there is an even smaller one (.380mm); this one handled much better than the .45 and I was able to hit the target, way off mark, twice.
The end!
