Yeatzee is in high school and I'm betting that he is aware of the sensitivity of various teachers and administrators and other parents regarding this. In addition, "work place" is a broad realm. I certainly think he would have been o.k. to not list it as NSFW but I can also understand his logic. On top of that he is in SoCAl.
Understood.
I have no idea what life in SoCal is like, so I appreciate the sentiments conveyed...

Ash, I agree with you in that regard. Yeatzee is in high school and I'm betting that he is aware of the sensitivity of various teachers and administrators and other parents regarding this. In addition, "work place" is a broad realm

Great shots. I'm not sure what the first weapon is. My brother has something similar to that; an AR-15 (is that what yours is?), invited me to the range to shoot many times, now I gone take him up on his offer. I am good with a rifle.

Yes it is an AR-15 varient, and a fun one at that.

This being one of the few semi-auto firearms I've shot (not counting pistols), so I loved it. I could easily hit steel plates out to 200 yards standing. Likewise, I was putting rounds down range fairly fast.

"Not Work-Safe"

I'd call this whole forum that. My narrow-minded bosses expect me to work and not read interesting forums.

Lucky dude, over here in Blighty the only SLR's we get to shoot with is a DSLR. There nothing like spending a few hours down the range with some mates.

I can agree, but I beleive that the Not Safe For Work was intended for photos that are too sexy (lingerie & bikini) and nudes. This should have been placed in the 'Other' catagory.
