A single shot firearm may remind one of that.
Such a firearm does not guarantee the mindset.
People think and learn differently.
And some just suck.
We all have that in-law, neighbor or cousin like that.
I deer hunt here in IL with a single-shot H&R Ultra Slug Hunter as I am a very strong advocate of one shot-one kill. My sons also use the USHs, as does my oldest nephew.
Here in IL we also have a rule mandating shotguns that only capable of firing 3 consecutive slugs. However, I regularly hear people firing many more than 3. I hate to think how many deer escape these hunters - injured or to lay down somewhere unfound to become food for coyotes. Those hunters are slobs.
What doesn't make any sense to me is that hunters using revolvers have no limit as to how many rounds their firearms can consecutively fire......
