Thanks for the info, I'll read my action/thriller books with a more critical eye when it comes to guns now. I think my friend is gonna take me to a shooting range, which might give me some gun knowledge and a first hand "feel" of how it is to shoot a gun. We're starting with rifles, and from there we go to 12 gauge shottys...sounds like fun.
