a poser, combat veteran wannabe. AKA playstation commando, or basement
ninja. SOmebody who plays too many video games and thinks that they are a weapons expert. When out of the basement, they can be found spreading misinformation about weapons based on the "information menu" on the
game's
weapon's menu. They are easy to spot, and use terms
like ".308 Lapua Magnum" or they insist that a 9mm will shoot through a block wall.
Generally the closest these generally harmless folk come to actually shooting a real
gun is the
gun's AIRSOFT counterpart.
They have no idea what firearms safety is, have never read the "10 Commandments of Range Safety, and when they reach 21, the first thing they buy is a Glock 19 with a laser. They are often suprised that the laser is an aiming device, not a guidance system for the bullet.
When corrected, their reactions can be anything from mild embarrassment to a militant rage.
Fun to watch at gunshows when they fondle a real
gun and are amazed that it is so
heavy.
