Of course I'm gonna argue with you, Michael. It's what we do around here...
My early "shooting mentors" who took me under their wings after my father died (I was 18) were both cops. Two of the most devoted shooters I've ever known. They taught me to
really shoot, to reload ammunition, to cast bullets, and other necessary skills. I met many of their partners on the Seattle PD who accompanied us on our shooting forays up to the gravel pit. Treasured memories.

Yeah, but I bet you feel naked if you're not on a motorcycle...
