Gun Club, noon

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

Parker opened up the gun range, checked the room, posted the sign, then got out her .Sig and her 9mm and started practicing.

SAFETY RULES:

· TREAT ALL GUNS AS IF THEY WERE LOADED

· KEEP YOUR FINGER OFF THE TRIGGER UNTIL READY TO FIRE

· BE SURE OF YOUR TARGET AND WHAT’S BEYOND

· ALWAYS WEAR HEARING AND EYE PROTECTION

· NEVER USE ALCOHOL OR DRUGS BEFORE OR WHILE SHOOTING.

· CHECK IN ALL WEAPONS BEFORE YOU LEAVE THE RANGE.

The gun range is open.

Re: Shoot!

Luke pulled his blaster from the gun locker and went down to an alley where he wouldn't destroy the target using a weapon that didn't use bullets.

He fiddled with the controls until the target was about 300 feet away, then began firing.

Bullseye every time.

Pippi applauds the fancy shootin.

Re: Shoot!

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

Luke grinned. "Thanks."

Re: Shoot!

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

Pippi tilted her head at the guy.

"I don't think we've met." she said holding out her hand. "I'm Pippi."

Re: Shoot!

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"I'm Luke," he replied. "It's nice to meet you." He smiled. "You're not a bad shot yourself."

Re: Shoot!

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

"Nice to meet you too." she grinned. "And thanks! I'm much better with my flintlocks, but they tend to make people nervous for some reason."

Re: Shoot!

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

Luke wrinkled up his forehead. "Flintlocks?" he repeated. "I don't know that weapon."

Re: Shoot!

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

Pippi reaches over to the shelf at her alley and brings back an unloaded flintlock (http://www.flickr.com/photos/strongestgirl/92189976/in/set-72057594048743558/).

"These, they're very old fashioned, but I've been using them for ever so long."

Re: Shoot!

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

Luke's eyes went wide. "Wow. I thought Dean's piece was an antique."

Re: Shoot!

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

"I don't think I've seen what Dean uses, so I can't say if his is older. Archie's might have given mine a run for their money in the antique catigory, when he was here, but I think they were cap and ball, which is a little more advanced."

Re: Shoot!

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

Luke smiled. "I was kidding--Dean's is only 25 years old or so. It's still a blaster. He picked it up on Coruscant when we was there with a class this semester. Back home we don't use non-laser technology any more, for the most part."

Re: Shoot!

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

"For the most part" covering bowcasters no doubt?

"Oh yes! For the flight class, I'd heard about those trips."

Re: Shoot!

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"You want to tell a Wookiee what kind of weapon to use?"

"They were arriving in my galaxy way ahead of my time," Luke explained. "So anything they brought back's kinda old from my point of view."

Re: Shoot!

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

Maybe I'd try it after letting him win.

"A long time ago, in a galaxy far away, Dean bought a new gun, but a month later it's 25 years old? I love this place."

Billy blinked at the sounds of not projectile weapons fire. "Laser guns?"

Re: Shoot!

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"Blaster, technically."

Re: Shoot!

[l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com]

"What's the difference?" Billy asked curiously.

Re: Shoot!

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"'Laser' covers everything from the weapons used on Star Destroyers down to tiny sport blasters. It's all dependent on the amount of fire power. Even a lightsaber works on a certain type of laser technology."

Re: Shoot!

[l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com]

"So, laser gun is like a buzz word, and the specific weapon you use, is a blaster. And uh, what's a light saber?"

Re: Shoot!

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"Jedi weapon," Luke said. "Think of it like a laser sword."

Re: Shoot!

[l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com]

Billy may have briefly had the look of a five year old gazing at the latest most kick assinating toy ever.

"Wow, I'd kind of like to see that." he said.

Re: Shoot!

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

Luke shrugged. "Maybe once I've learned to use mine I'll let you see it."

Re: Shoot!

[l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com]

Billy snickered a bit at that. "Sounds good. Don't cut any pieces off yourself."

Re: Shoot!

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

Luke gave him a flat look. "Wasn't planning on it."

Re: Shoot!

[l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com]

"Few people ever do."
