I shot a gun once in 8th grade. That's it. I use an actual penis extension instead of a symbolic one.

Despite the fact my grandfather, my father, and the OM were expert marksmen and I have had guns in my house, I held a gun for the first time in law school when there were intruders peering in the window of my house.
It was horrifying, just holding in in the hallway, knowing that I might have to defend myself. I did not.
The OM and I went to gun shows, but I never again held a loaded weapon until the ex-LMA taught me how to shoot both rifles and a variety of handguns at the range. It's a skill I am glad to have.
Holding a loaded weapon is always terrifying. Or at least it should be, and the repeated handoff from him loading it to me in the booth is still a scary memory. We only went enough for me to feel confident I could drop a cow or a slow moving zombie. Anything faster, I might be in trouble.
