"Gun Culture" is a huge term used to cluster anything to do with guns and shooting sports together. Sometimes I forget how absolutely HUGE this "culture" is and how many people it includes. For example you have all these sub-groups; hunters, hand loaders, target shooters, collectors, survivalists, professional shooters, casual everyday gun owners, CCW holders, and cowboy action shooters. The list is ever expanding and includes people that just own a gun for protection but don't consider themselves as part of the culture. All of these are part of the "culture". The sub-groups surpass religious, political, gender, race, and social boundaries and yet we still view some of the groups as a little bit crazy.
I bring all this up to start a dialogue between the sub-groups. What does your group offer the Gun Culture as a whole? What group hurts the others the most? How can we bring others who are not shooters into the fold? What about the gun culture bothers you?
