Just like that

Bang, in just 24 hours I will be settled on my houseboat in Amsterdam. Second trip so far. Went in October and decided that there was unfinished business there. And by chance I thought it would be a great idea to go to a shooting range while there, so I am ;)

I'm a very liberal guy, just seemed like a good idea.

The HK MP5s I saw at Schiphol would be fun to blast away with.

Any chance the range has one of those to let?

I like HK.

Just curios were you call home, Of all the things to do in Amsterdam and the Netherlands shooting has never crossed my mind. I live in rural PA, USA we just go out back and shoot if we want.

I come from Ireland. Dublin, which isn't rural. So firing weapons can be only done by hunting or clay pigeon shooting, which are usually in Higher Class rural hotels and the likes. I came back from Amsterdam last night. I really enjoyed the shooting range. We fired a 22 colt cadet and a 357 magnum.

If I fired a gun outside of my house, I would have our equivalent of a SWAT team at my door.
