Wot to do now? Gun bruhs gtfih

Cliffs

> Made friends on call of duty
> They turn out to be marines
> Met them like a month ago irl, they all cool
> They talk to me as like I'm one of "em" eventho I only know em from like 3-4 months so I kept going with flow
> They added me in their group chat and asked me if I wanna join em at shooting range tonight
> My autistic reply "sure bruh, love it lol"

Here is problem, idk jack about shooting or even holding a gun right way. Youtube videos just keep saying same bs about trigger discipline but I don't have time for all that, wot do? Backing out isn't option because we all agreed already lol any practical tips for begginer? I don't wanna look like a noob


Edit - I came clean and made up chit like "I love guns in call of duty but idk how to shoot one irl bruh", they taught me and I did pretty good actually or average

Just tell them you've never been shooting before, they're going to be super happy to introduce you to it but if you try to pretend like you know what you're doing you're going to look like a **** and they'll hate you.

This.

But judging by your first response to their invite you're gonna make yourself look like a ****.

But I texted "sure bruh, love it", that prolly made em think I already know how to shoot?

I guess you could call up a gun range now and book a private session to walk you through the basics and get some experience before you meet up with them too.

Seems like a super weird thing to do though if you've got friends who would teach you

Maybe you just love the idea of going to the range with them?
I dunno, seems a weird thing to want to pretend you go to the range when you don't.



brb I love going to the range and shooting but... I didn't bring any guns with me and I'm a terrible shot.

Definitely tell them you've never shot. Never be that ******* in any situation that acts like they know what they're doing, and completely **** up. You get more respect from people by being straight with them. Plus I know for sure they'd love teaching you to shoot, its fun bringing new people.


don't forget your foamies.

Just be honest. Any other approach is incorrect. They'll tell you what to do and you'll have fun. Bring you're own safety glasses if you have them. Otherwise, you can buy at the range. You need ear protection too but the range probably has ears to loan for free.

Idc if they make fun of me, they all make fun of each other all time but my bitchass already told em I love shooting for some weird reason

yes you can, you're putting too much thought into it. If they call you out for saying you love it, just straight up tell them. Have balls.



if you **** up too bad, you're going to get kicked out of the range.

Well, you can probably get a 2-3 hour session and then buy 4-5 guns from your favorite arms dealer so it looks legit.

If you're a natural it'll be just like in the movies where you punch smiley faces in the targets

Ok you have to just laugh it off and say “well I didn’t wanna sound stupid to u guys but I haven’t really ever been so you’ll have to show me” they’ll prob laugh with you then be more than happy to bring you into the fold.

Let this be a reminder to not be the type that says he knows **** when you don’t. I use to work with a guy like this and nobody liked the guy because he’d always act like an expert on subjects he really knew zilch about.

It's easy as hell to shoot a gun.

Hitting your target is more complicated, tho.

ThisIsMyAlias gave you good advice...they'll be happy to teach you the basics.

Try not to shoot anyone.

I mean it's incredibly easy to fire at a range where you just stand still and shoot targets. Just know how the safety works, how to load a mag, always have trigger discipline, how to load a round into the chamber, how to clear the gun etc. Just watch youtube videos. You're not gonna look like an expert, but you should at least be able to look like you know how a gun works.

And tell them you haven't shot since you were in highschool and have only been a couple times. And quit lying.

How'd this sound if I tell em that I love it but I don't actually know how to it right? And I'm no expert or like that type, I just didn't want them to think that I was "pussying" out

They’re going to know man. Might as well make it a joke to get a laugh. If I were one of them I wouldn’t think anything of it other than “this crazy ****er haha” type feel. Just be honest bro. You aren’t going to fool them if u aren’t experienced.

Brb they’re going to have a lot of gun y’all and you are gonna make yourself look stupid if u don’t be honest.

Tell them you love guns and haven’t had the change to do it but you’ve always wanted to. If you play COD then you prob do love guns or at least wanna try it out.

Most range offer private lessons. I'd do that if I was in your position. Get a two hour lesson, one hour for pistol, and one for AR.

I just saw it's tonight when they're meeting up. You're probably screwed on the lessons then. Just watch videos.
