There was a
similiar thread about booze and guns here as well.
Drinking and guns don't mix!!!
A good example is my uncle. Serious alcoholic!! He had too many irish coffees on opening day of deer season several years ago and shot himself in the foot with a 300 wby mag. Now he has 1 and 1/2 feet and doesn't drink anymore.
In my opinion booze and guns don't mix. Doesn't matter if at base camp or at the range. As soon as the booze comes out the guns better get put away. Otherwise I am out of there.
