    Pistol grip shotguns with no stock. Some of you may shoot from the hip as well as Charles Askins, but I never could hit anything.

    I actually prefer a PGO shotgun for close range work. My hand/arm seems to be able to absorb the recoil better than a pad against my shoulder. With a Hogue Tamer grip on an 18" 870, I can shoot heavy loads all day with no fatigue or pain. I have no problems with accuracy using a high hold as long as I'm not trying to peg anything further than 20-25 yards out.

    Mentioned briefly once before, I'll reiterate:

    For the love of God and all that is holy... PLEASE learn how to properly use:

    They're/there/their
    Two/to/too
    Your/You're/Yur'in

    Ok, the last one was just so I could keep it in threes.

    Damn good point. I hate that shit to my core.

    On a somewhat related note, I was in the Netherlands over the summer, and had to pay some visits to urban hellholes like Amsterdam and Den Haag. The Dutch (the native ones, if you catch my drift) are generally tall and lanky, yet their bathrooms are sized for midgets.
    I'm 5'9", well under the average height of a female Dutch, let alone a male, and felt like a gorilla trapped in a dollhouse. It was ridiculous.

    Also, bicyclists are batshit insane there. They are reckless and will gladly play chicken with cars, and run down pedestrians who don't get out of their way.

    Depends which Canadians. Justin Trudeau was just elected with a majority government.
    That would be this guy. Silver-spoon fed, trust fund baby, airhead, part-time snowboarding instructor and substitute drama teacher, full-time Islamophile and moron.

    I'd hate to be judged because of Barack Obama.

    Every Canadian I've met has been pretty friendly and easy going.
