Re: CHL and having a drink
The NRA says that alcohol and guns don't mix. I dunno... I tend to agree. Mostly though, I just wanted to be sure and get in on what has to be the five hundredths post about the exact same topic... Lol. Maybe we should make one of the "drunkin gun toter" threads a sticky.

Re: CHL and having a drink
You know? I just came up with a great idea!! A shooting range... With a bar!! I wonder if getting a liquor license would be hard for a shooting range? Imagine the fun!! The video alone would be worth a fortune on you tube!

Pour in the glass. Hold it up and show it to the faucet. Enjoy.oohrah wrote:with a splash, in a Glencairn glass03Lightningrocks wrote:NEVER, WOULD I DO SUCH A THING!!! Single malt is to only be consumed NEAT.Oldgringo wrote:Scotch on the rocks, if you please.

Their rules for the VIP club are very strict. The valet locks your firearms in the vault and you can't retrieve them until the next day. And you can't shoot after drinking either.J_Davis84 wrote:Here you go, it should be opening soon, I wonder how many drunk mwag calls will they get from people leaving the range.

Re: CHL and having a drink
Maybe a splash of water, depending on the Scotch, but ice just kills them for me.03Lightningrocks wrote:NEVER, WOULD I DO SUCH A THING!!! Single malt is to only be consumed NEAT.Oldgringo wrote:Scotch on the rocks, if you please.

If that's true, why do they keep trying to sell me wine?03Lightningrocks wrote:The NRA says that alcohol and guns don't mix.
When in doubt
Vote them out!

Alcohol is good for cleaning guns. Make sure you lube them well after cleaning.tacticool wrote:If that's true, why do they keep trying to sell me wine?03Lightningrocks wrote:The NRA says that alcohol and guns don't mix.

Re: CHL and having a drink
Oh... It's true alright. Copy and paste from the NRA firearm safety rules list... "Never use alcohol or over-the-counter, prescription or other drugs before or while shooting.tacticool wrote:If that's true, why do they keep trying to sell me wine?03Lightningrocks wrote:The NRA says that alcohol and guns don't mix.
Alcohol, as well as any other substance likely to impair normal mental or physical bodily functions, must not be used before or while handling or shooting guns."
To answer why they would try sell you wine, I would venture a guess they expect a person old enough to buy wine to be old enough to know when and when not to consume it. I didn't know they sold wine. Interesting.
As for putting water in single malt... OMG!!! With one possible exception... A cask strength single malt... And then only a few drops.

I was fortunate to be invited to a private tasting at The Macallan, Speyside 11 years ago. Nosed from the barrel, then cut to about 130 with their spring water.

Re: CHL and having a drink
One of our campers brought some Huckleberry wine to the cook-out tonight. Good thing I wasn't carryin', I might have 'started a fight or shot out some lights'.
