Hello, My names cody.

I would like to preface this post with saying I'm not a usual reddit viewer or poster but i heard this is a good place to find a community of like minded individuals. A little background on this post before i get into the meat and potatoes. Me and my family are conversative that moved from Ohio to TN. My parents are not anti-gun in any way shape or form. They just haven't had the need to be involved. I was fortunate enough to come from an upper middle class family who lived in places were firearms were a second though. I'm not 30 and my whole family migrated from Ohio to TN. I sold my house and use the money to buy my family a nice inground pool and am living with my parents. It is better my dad pay me back the money i lent him then pay interest back to the bank. LOL. I've always shot guns at my friends houses in ohio. (alot of them lived on farms and had ranges out back). Now that i'm getting into shooting and I REALLY enjoy it. (My OCD loves to see the improvement after every range session and see groupings getting closer). MY family is of the mindset of you don't need an edc because you've never been in the position where you've needed one. How do I explain to my family just because I like to shoot doesn't mean I'm automatically looking for confrontation.
