Ever have to control your laughter?

I don't know what made me think of this, but I figured I'd post. Have you ever had to control your laughter, meaning try your best not to laugh at something? About a year ago, I took the Hunter's Safety class. It was at Basspro, and me and my buddy both went. Well, out of 30 some people, there were 3 students who were the opposite color of me (I'm white) and the stuff they did was hilarious to us atleast. The last day of class, we had to go around and perform a safety check and show how to work the action of a bolt action, a semi-automatic, a lever action, a single shot, and a pump gun. I was dead last in line, so I got to watch everybody go through. These 3 boys (brothers I believe) picked up the guns, and held them all sideways. They were holding the long guns sideways.... haha. The instructor kept correcting them, but they refused to hold them right. The last one, and the smallest, even picked up the 870, held it sideways, and dropped it. All this time, I'm trying not to laugh, but I can hardly help it. Well, afterwards, we took the test. Guess who didn't pass the class? Yep, the boys holding the guns like they were deer hunting in the ghetto. So now, I also have a question? I know they make the homeboy night sights for glocks, do they make them for 870s and 336's?[:D]

Boot camp Marine Corps 1974. They asked for anybody with Martial arts traing for a Hand to hand class. We had on little Oiental guy who put up his hand.
They had him throw a punch slow motion so the instructor could show how to block it. They did this several times. Then the instructor told him to try it for real. Kid was very fast Punched the Instructor right in the Nose.
I laughed.
During the training on how to chock out some one I never got the chance to try it cause they kept chocking me out.
Learned to control my laugh after that.[:o)]
In answer to your question, they do make side-offset mounts for the gamey types who will put both a Moon Scope for long shots and a dot sight for up close stuff on their autoloaders.
