I wasn't talking about your story when you were 10.
The rest makes me really question your mental health.
>I'll feel that happy once again
You dream about killing people being a hero and a real man for once in your life that's what I am talking about.

No I'm just saying I hope joining the Army makes me happy (happier than usual), I don't want to kill people you nerd

Ausbro here.
I grew up with guns in suburban Melbourne, first gun I had was when I was 6, it was an ancient pump action winchester 22.
Upgraded to a ruger 10/22 just before the amnesty, I was 10 at the time.
Had to get a Brno model 2 after that, my old man made a silencer for it and I used to shoot possums in the backyard with it at night, no fucks were given.
By the time I was 14 I was hunting deer with a Sauer 200 3006, that was a sweet gun.
Gave up guns around 18 but just got my licence back now that Im almost 30, about to buy a Winchester 70 and start deer hunting again.
