One of the problems with living in a “third world country” is that often one is subjected to less than ideal products and services. One pretty much has to just put up with it, although sometimes one CAN influence a situation or person to provide a better outcome than expected.

This type of situation happened on Sunday. There was a local IPSCA competition. Dozens of people congregated. Dozens of guns were all over the place. Thousands of rounds of ammunition were available. Besides the usual crowd of guys there were also a number of women in attendance – some of which were fairly attractive. But, contrary to what we are told to expect by the mass media and the “political gurus”- not one murder, robbery or rape took place.

This leads me to the following conclusion. Since we live in a third world country where the aforementioned quality control problems tend to abound it is quite obvious – the place was full of defective guns…

One pretty much has to just put up with it, although sometimes one CAN influence a situation or person to provide a better outcome than expected.

On Sunday I witnessed one of those quality control situations. There was a local IPSCA competition up at the local gun club. Dozens of people congregated. Dozens of guns were all over the place. Thousands of rounds of ammunition were available. Besides the usual crowd of guys there were also a number of women in attendance – some of which were fairly attractive. There was even a number of children present – including one little twerp that couldn’t have been more than 10-12 years old and had a semi-automatic handgun and multiple clips of ammunition strapped to his waist. But, contrary to what we are told to expect by the mass media and the “political gurus”- not one murder, robbery or rape took place.
