Most innaccurate info you have been told or heard about guns/shooting??

Lets hear them!!!

Guy i worked with at my old job said he could shoot a group that was the size of a silverdollar with his 30-06 at a mile.. i asked how far that was and his reply "1000yds"... oh really now??? so what happened to the other 760yds? hahahah

what was worse, he told another guy the same thing the next day but it was with a .308..

Ive heard that glocks suck.

Ouch.......

Now why did you have to go say that!!! Now people will be confused.

I heard a police officer say that he didn't like Glocks since if you left them in a hot car, the frame would melt. He preferred the Ruger autos. This was about 12 years ago.

A newspaper editor told me that their staff "gun expert" told her a SKS was just the semi auto version of a AK-47.

Some expert!!!

I was getting a haircut the other day and the barber and client in the next chair over were talking about a fellow they both knew.
He went Dove or Quail hunting and said he got 48 birds with one box of shotshells. Said he found a spot where two groups of birds would cross and he would get 2 with one shot. Only got 48 birds though... he missed once.

I heard that the ak 47 was an unreliable POS and the chinese ones were the biggest POS.

I was taught the cup and saucer grip for pistols by a guy that saw it on TV.

It only kicks a little

.22 magnum will defeat bulletproof vests

The guy that taught me how to shoot told me I'd win my first match....he tricked me into getting out there.

It did work out quite that way...I wound up last.

Hammer told me about a guy at the last gun show trying to sell him a garand from ww1.
