Gun Club meeting - Gun Range, 4pm

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

Parker walks onto the range, her .Sig and Glock in their locked case, and makes sure everything is ready. She posts the following two notices, to be read by everyone who wants to participate:

Ten Commandments of Firearms Safety

1. Treat every gun with the respect due a loaded gun.
2. Watch that muzzle! Be able to control the direction of the muzzle even if you should stumble.
3. Be sure barrel and action are clear of obstructions and that you have only ammunition of the proper size for the gun you are carrying.
4. Be sure of your target before you pull the trigger; know identifying features of the game you hunt. Never shoot at a sound or move­ment.
5. Unload guns when not in use. Take down or have act­ions open; guns should be carried in cases to the shoot­ing area.
6. Never point a gun at anything you do not want to shoot; avoid all horse­play with a firearm.
7. Never climb a fence or tree or jump a ditch with a loaded gun; never pull a gun toward you by the muzzle.
8. Never shoot a bullet at a flat, hard sur­face or water; at tar­get practices be sure your backstop is adequate.
9. Store guns and ammunition sep­ar­ately beyond the reach of children and careless adults.
10. Avoid alcoholic bev­er­ages before or during shooting.

DEA Agent shoots self during Gun Safety class

"Anyone who wants to break these rules? Can feel free to talk to our sponsor, Principal Connor, about it. John Connor suggested pin-shooting; anyone who wants to do that, sign up below."

She puts on her hearing protection, puts up a Dracula target, and starts shooting.

Parker will be back in 3-4 hours to interact with anyone who wants to show up. Don't bother NPC'ing her. Have fun!

"Noooo problem," Parker coos. She sights down the barrel, then checks everything: cartridge, slide, trigger, safety. "Like this?" she says, holding it carefully, in front of her body.


_{[[omg! *criez and goes on Dr. Phil to repent*]]}

[can_be_more]

"Right. It doesn't feel anything like firing one of these," Aeryn says, indicating the weapon in her hand, "so don't be expecting that."

((*is rich and goes on OPRAH, HA!*))

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"Got it." Parker braces herself, and then has to compensate-- the kickback is less than she thought, and different, more like she imagines a machine-gun would be. She fries the target. "Okay. That sucked."


_{[[*totally forgets to thank you at the Oscars while wearing Wang. ha!*]]}

[can_be_more]

"That would be why I switched to one of these," Aeryn nods. "I'm going to have to find a better target than paper."

((Totally stole your actor/model husband!))

"Mmm." Parker frowns. "What did you use before? When you were-- wherever?" she says, realizing she has no actual idea where Aeryn is from. There's so many advanced civilization types running around, she gave up keeping track about the third week in. "Is it anything we could obtain for the range?"



_{[[*falls out of chair laughing* you so win. *cries even as she gets a star on the Hollywood Walk*]]}

"We had ranges set up with special targets that could actually take the blast or so my mun has decided. I think I have about as much chance of getting one as I do getting my Prowler here. I may have to make it my mission to find something useable."


((*is gleeful as she gets her hands in cement*
And that's how we do it in Hollywood. *bows*))

Parker frowns. "Maybe MacGyver or someone else with too much time on their hands one of the teachers around here can help with that. Although, an outdoor course might at least be helpful, or non-flammable." She cocks her head. "Prowler? Is that another gun? This one is lovely enough..."


_{[[*poses for E! with Christian Bale* *giggling even more now, damnit]]}

[can_be_more]

"No, I believe that is... Juanita, actually," Aeryn says, and she can't believe she actually frelling remembers the name Crichton gave it. "A Prowler is a type of ship."

((*gives a scathing interview for your E! True Hollywood Story*))

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

Parker gives her a deadpan look. "And why wouldn't she be. Got it." Then she looks intrigued. "A ship? They wouldn't let you bring it here?"


_{[[*refuses to come out of her trailer until you're thrown off the lot, damnit*]]}

[can_be_more]

"As far as I know, it's still on a Peacekeeper command carrier somewhere. Why loan out a ship when I'm not going to be in a combat situation?" Aeryn says, and thinks that over. "I'm sure that's what they thought, anyway."

((Someone's assistant tells the story of our bitter feud to Entertainment Tonight))

"Ah, it belonged to your former command. I thought for a moment it was your own, like Valentine's ship. Understood." Parker grins. "I'm not in the To the Black Club, but I can understand its appeal. A shame you weren't allowed to bring yours with you."

_{[[And we both get mocked on Letterman]]}

[can_be_more]

"I definitely agree with that," says Aeryn, firing off another shot into the paper target's head.

((They make movies about us. Starring actresses like Shirley Maclaine and Ellen Barkin.))

Parker grinned, and moved on to the next shooter.


_{[[and now I'm seeing Biography, the 50th Anniversary, and lord, it's sad. *laughing maniacally*]]}

((I totally ran out of big text to say! *g*))

((We're going to have to marry plumbers and mechanics, ala Elizabeth Taylor, you realize.))

<sub>[[it's their first conversation, they can do that, yeah!]]

[[Can they be burly mechanics?]]</sub>

[can_be_more]

((They must be! It's burly or nothing! Bonus points if they all double dated in rehab.))
