This is my rifle
This is my gun
This is for fighting
This is for fun

Exposing his gun got him a free ride in a police car.

One of my buddies dropped his rifle on the grinder. The Cajon drill instructor yelled "wha' dya' do boy ?" My buddy answered in his midwestern accent "Ah' dropped ma' gun" Instructor says "Tell everon' bout' it" My buddy spent the morning running the perimeter of the grinder holding his rifle above his head. Leason learned.
