If the 300 Spartans had had guns, they could have beat the entire Persian army.

What kind of ammo would have taken down the big Persian King?

I have to laugh because at a Firearm Safety Course years ago the instructors showed us this big ass cartridge. I asked “What do you kill with that?” (thinking elephant or hippo).

The instructor answered, with a total straight face, “a truck.”

I started laughing and they didn’t. Then I said “Really?” Totally not believing them.

Then a whole group of male gun nuts began explaining military check points to me.
