JFlowers Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 (edited) LOL! If your forehead stops the gun at a +89 degrees from the horizontal, have you broken the 180? Edited December 31, 2007 by JFlowers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoMiE Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 It looks like the are shooting in the middle of a park? I get a kick out of all the females I see shooting wearing camo and bikini tops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Norman Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 I had an Uncle many years ago. My father had a Ruger .44mag. Unc wanted to shoot is, so Pop said fine, Unc supposedly knew his stuss (Claimed he was an armorer in the NJNG if I remember correctly, I was about 10-12 at the time) Well Pop is watching the target, a 2 foot chunk of telephone pole. Unc lets one off with his elbows bent. If he wasn't wearing a hat with a brim, it is likely he would have embedded the hammer in his skull. Funny now, not so then.

el pres Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 This is a second hand story, a buddy of mine went to hunt a pig on a private ranch. The guide asked what are you shooting? My buddy replied that he is going to use the 44mag. The guide was silent, most likely thinking, not another dumb*ss with a handgun! When my buddy took down the pig with one shot the guide screamed out, Great shot! My buddy thought to himself, I hope so, that was like 7yds. The guide then went onto to tell the story of last handgunner hunter. Guy bought an S&W 500 short barrel for the pig hunt and never fired it before hand!!! He spent the rest of the afternoon in the hospitle getting his forehead stiched up!!! Missed the pig! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChuckS Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 Yup, probably a DQ but she get points for trigger finger awareness. That said, I really think that the RO is not a people person Happy New Year, Chuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shred Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 A kid was killed by a .500 S&W to-the-head recoil a couple years ago in TX. The double-fire ADs are ugly as well. Giving a heavy-recoiling pistol to a newbie is not funny, it's stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giving a heavy-recoiling pistol to a newbie is not funny, it's stupid. +1 physical injury, ruined trust, fear of firearms, and he just reeked of 'model citizen'... Sorry, don't see the humor in this one. Trained too many female shooters out of fearing handguns, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BSeevers Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 I hate losers like the owner of that gun. Yea real funny leaving a scar on the forehead of a pretty girl. She did have a good grip, stance and trigger finger awareness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mlmiller1 Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 The double-fire ADs are ugly as well. If I'm teaching a newperson, especially a woman or small child, I never load more than one bullet in the gun. We talk about it & it helps calm them somewhat & avoids the fear of "what if I drop the gun". Maybe that isn't the right way, I don't know, but it sure seems to help them feel better & it doesn't hurt my feelings too much, either. We then work up to two rounds, then we fill 'em up but not until they are comfortable with it. MLM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We then work up to two rounds, then we fill 'em up but not until they are comfortable with it. MLM +1 When I take novice or zero experience people shooting I take a swag of firearms. Start at 22lr (short or long guns) and work on up from there, single rounds as previously suggested is the best way. I let them set the pace, if they feel comfortable to shot bigger stuff then it is their choice, everybody is given fair warning and a demonstration of what they are going to be shooting. Idiots who let people shoot bigstuff before they are ready should be standing in front of the firearm, not behind. I have seen more people give it away because they get treated this way. It's not funny and it's bad for the sport. NOW, if some macho dickhead wants to prove how much punishment he can suck up, then I have two nasty suckers (one a 5 1/2 pound 50Beowulf, the other an 8lb 458x2" both loaded with 500grainers) he can shoot prone, this usually settles the testosterone level down a notch or nine. Notice I say HE, it is unlikely that Rambo is going to be a Rambo-ette. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XRe Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 I got a nice hard look down the barrel of a .44 DE one day due to a nimrod like that guy... Unfortunately, he gives Texans a bad name, too.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
