But a very expensive hobby indeed. I remember emptying a fully loaded automatic AK47 (not legal per se) and it was U$30 or something in that range. The bullet for AWP was U$4 a pop back in 1998~99. By the time I learned how to actually hit the dummy with AWP, I already blew 200 bucks. And that plus the inevitable bruising that last a few weeks.
yea its hard to forget when your body is catching ricochets

yea shooting is expensive especially more if you are buying ammo at the gun ranges. the one at poco costs 32$ for 50 shots of 9mm.
