I know -- but topically relevant nonetheless. I suspect some may not realize that what that woman is doing is actually illegal in certain states.
The comment above on fit is spot on. The Beretta is a fine gun. But it either fits or it doesn't. I was close to buying one a couple of years ago. I went with the more boring choice of an auto instead because nothing fits me unless I can drop the stock with a shim.

Minneapolis is sort of like Houston, but cold and liberal.

I have to get 15 hours for my area of specialization. It is hard to do in Louisiana and I can't wait until the end of the year to look for credits. I may present in 2026 to get my hours. If I recall correctly, you can get six hours of credit for a one-hour CLE that is presented solo and with written materials.

I recommend Goody's powder and a Zing Zang bloody.

The Howard Leight earphones mentioned above are a very good option that I've used extensively. I have also used the Walker earphones but I don't like the sound quality on those. For the past couple of years I've been using these plugs: LINK With the plugs I do lose some hearing but not so much that it affects my ability to hunt. The plugs are of course easier to wear.

I was given a toy howitzer in the 70s. It had plastic artillery shells that you could load it with.
I hate that twelve yats of Christmas song.

I go to his pro shop in New Roads all the time. Highly recommended.

This seems kind of third world...
I don't recall that song. I do recall the Bitch Better Have My Money song, which was peak Murphy's if you were loaded enough to try to dance up some leg for late-night.
Not really a prank, but a colleague of mine barfed in the CEO's office after getting shite-faced during a non-approved holiday event in the office. I'm not aware that she ever found out about that either.

I bought the Viper G2 youth model in 20 gauge for my son. It has been a good gun. A few notes:
- In order to shoot light loads reliably, it must be broken in with two boxes of heavier game loads. No big deal, and it says that in the instructions.
- Ours has been reliable after following the procedure described above. Most of the shells we use are light quail loads and I only buy the cheap stuff. Said another way, it isn't picky about ammunition.
- It is easy to clean, which is good because...
- It does shoot dirty and does need to be cleaned. How often I am not exactly sure, but I clean the gas piston and magazine tube around 200 rounds.
- The gun has surprisingly good "feel;" it is not heavy and overbuilt.
- The safely is where it should be -- behind the trigger. Take note Beretta.
- If you are getting a youth version, get the one that comes with a youth stock and a regular one.
- Since it is a gas gun, it is softer shooting. That's good for kids.

I really like it. I shoot a fancy A400. For my purposes, I honestly believe I would have been just as satisfied with a wood stocked Viper G2.
Not too early. If you do it well, there is another thread that you can post to about how your day went
