    Keep it simple stupid.
    Iron sights, lightweight, light and/or red dot maybe. As opposed to a decked out 13 pound M4.

    I know what KISS stands for silly!

    There is a brand of rifles called KISS. I looked on their website, didn't see the acronym spelled out.

    Are you guys messing with me?

    ETA: I sent Cochise a PM asking for a pointer to the "Shotguns for Dummies" website. Geez, I don't know any of his. Never even heard those terms...

    Ultimate acronym:
    Hagtttrnoaspotwrta? Wirttmmtooodl? IantangralNUDebmeuaiewsoMSadoetattc. Igoimaiuamiiiaamotrwrwhtrtacbtdwiatts. fa.

    (Has anyone given thought to the revolutionary notion of actually spelling out the words rather than abbreviating? Would it really take that much more time out of our daily lives? I'm not talking about nationally generally recognized abbreviations like NRA, USA, DOJ, etc, but many we use are issue-specific even within sub-groups on Maryland Shooters, and duplicated or even triplicated adding to the confusion. I'm guilty of it myself although I usually ask myself if it is an abbreviation the majority of the readers will recognize without having to refer to a code book to decipher what I am trying to say.

    I'm guessing you don't post from a phone.

    Valid point. Do folks actually type long posts on their phones, though? Or am I the only one who finds it near impossible to type anything coherent on a smart phone (large fingers), much less abbreviations? :)

    There's a few that do.
