ErikW Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 This itty bitty kiddie is dove hunting with a big shotgun. What's amazing is that he's totally unfazed by what happens. I sure hope dad only loads one shell at a time. http://www.guzer.com/videos/redneckkid.php I regret the bigoted commentary. No animals were harmed in the making of this video.

Clay1 Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 I feel for that kid. That just makes you want to pick that gun up and try that again - NOT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpolans Posted June 12, 2005 Share Posted June 12, 2005 I feel for that kid. That just makes you want to pick that gun up and try that again - NOT! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Oh, I'm not so sure. Remember, that was his SECOND shot! He didn't seem fazed by it at all...just wanted to see if he hit anything! Reminds me of when I was a kid. My dad had a T/C Contender in .44mag with a 4x scope on it. I was around 10 years old and he would hold the fore-end and rest it on a sandbag while I pulled the trigger...no problem. I'd been shooting for about 5 years from .22s up to 9x19 and .45acp without a problem...just keep your elbows locked and let the gun climb. So, he goes one stall over to give a family friend some pointers figuring I can handle the Contender on my own. So, I loaded it up, cocked the hammer, set the crosshairs on the bull some 25 yards away, *bent my elbows* and pulled the trigger. The gun came back and the top rear of the scope nailed me in the forehead. I hollered and dropped the gun (put a nice dent in the scope too). Dad freaked out and jumped over to see what happened. End result, I got the absolute biggest goose egg I've ever had on my forehead, was a little shy about shooting .44mag for a few years and became a very big fan of the isosceles stance; no way I was going to quit shooting though! IIRC, the shot was a 9 at 5 o'clock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFD Posted June 12, 2005 Share Posted June 12, 2005 That kid has definitely got the spirit. If that were me, I'd buy the kid something along the lines of a .410. No need to make him a lifetime flincher from getting knocked down at every shot. Still...I love the way the kid jumps right back up to see what happened.
