Is there such thing as too much gun? :P

or a girl to pretty, or a car to fast??
By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

I have been thinking that my .300 win mag was overkill for coyotes.

Anything over 7mm Remington mag is too much gun for me.  Just a personal thing. 
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

That pistol is "too much gun".  That's retarded.  That guy knew what was coming (he's standing there looking like he's about to get hit by a pickup), and he still couldn't hold onto it.
I'm OK with the warthog, unless I am the taxidermist trying to put humpty-dumpty back together for a full body mount... :chuckle:
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

I seen it coming just from his stance and grip.  He could have absorbed it with proper stance and two handed grip.  That being said 600 in a handgun is to much in my opinion.  Even with proper stance and grip your going to have degradation in accuracy from the recoil.

Too much gun is when the accuracy of the shooter declines due to anticipation of the shot.
