There are loads of range snobs out there, I've gotten many disapproving looks for shooting my 3-1/2 inch sx3, synthetic stock with a 28 inch barrel at my club. For a few months that was all I had to shoot, so I started bringing my dad's m37, and I still got those looks because I was using a pump gun. I guess range rats just don't cotton to my kind, but they cant keep me away. I go at least twice a month, and make friends with the other new guys with entry level guns.
I bet they hate it even more when you outscore them.

There's a lot of snobs with $4000 guns who would have been better off buying an inexpensive pump gun from Wal Mart and spending the rest of that money on a good shooting coach and ammo to practice with.

I have never missed at a shooting range come to think of it I have never missed with a shotgun ever.
Yeah, I never miss either, ever.

I take it that you don't shoot clays.
