Gun people acronyms
« on: September 29, 2011, 04:10:53 AM »
Nowadays people use acronyms for all sorts of things but I think gun people use them most of all.

Let's see how many gun or survival related acronyms we can come up with.

Just one rule... You only get to use one (per person)

I'll start.

"SHTF" = $h!t hits the fan.

Wow, slow day on the forum!  Here's some more acronyms:

I'm glad 2aHawaii isn't like some other forums.  Over on TFL they get so bad sometimes that it sounds like you're overhearing SEALs on an operation with all the BS acronyms.

I thought it was one per person? I have a long list if that is not the case.
