At a company where I was given a choice office...this was in CA (I
was in Sacramento) and about 10 minutes away (Rancho Cordova?) was an
indoor firearms range...3-4 of us would take a lunch, rent big-bore
pistols and blast a box of ammo....talk about releasing frustration.
You could choose whatever type of target you wanted and sometimes
we'd pick human profile targets.
One day. I got lucky and produced a tight group of about 4 inches
with a 9mm. I brought the target back to my office and pinned it to
the wall.
Funny thing...alot of the sideways looks stopped about that time.
Hmm...
