In the old days they used to use rifled slugs in an 8-gauge to kill elephants. That isn't the largest shotgun though. Many years ago there used to be 4-gauge and 6-gauge shark guns. The shells looked a bit like 1-lb. coffee cansOriginally Posted by Doramius![]()

But I think under 8 gauge guns were actually considered Hand canons instead of guns. A canon is essentially a gun, but not really one you'd want to butt up into your shoulder once fired. You might get an undesired bruise or amputation once it's fired.Originally Posted by Capmaster

Yeah, they weren't shoulder arms. They mounted on the gunwale of the boat. Something like that would dislocate your shoulderOriginally Posted by Doramius

Kindda like the feeling of waking up with your arm dead from sleeping over on it. I had that happen to both arms at the same time one night, I woke up screaming because I couldn't move. The worse part of the ordeal is when the blood starts rushing back in with oxygen.

yeah, that's a joy. i often fall asleep on my arm (always go to sleep watching TV these days) and wake up later. i have to pick my arm up and put it where i want it. i'f i'm lucky i get to sleep before the arm wakes up
Why is it when your arms are dead you can't move them right? you can still use your muscles, but you look like a complete spaz..... -
WHat's worse is if one of your legs is totally dead and you're in a hurry and try to run on it.Originally Posted by flaninacupboard

Ruger 9mm w3x10 clips, S&W .38 special w/2x5 speedloaders, and 2 - 12 gauge pumps (one under each side of the bed) 5 shells each with one chambered, alternating shot and slug.

9mm Thayne?
That's like a Daisy spring pistol. I'll hand you my 20 and you can shorten the barrell and saw off the back. Now you'll have a good hand gun. You'll need a strong arm though.

Yeah but I have special hollow point bullets, kinda like the old Black Talons. I also have a 130# German Shepherd

I have other weapons too:
20 guage S&W shotgun
Marlin 30-30 carbine
Ruger mini-14
Ruger 10/22
marlin camp 9 rifle (now this thing packs a wallop. Due to the extra barrel length a 9X19 round has the velocity of a .357 mag pistol)!
I once shot a rabbit with my camp 9 with a FMJ round and it litterally blew him apart. (Not good for hunting rabbits!)"Terminated!" :firing: -
I blew a rabbit apart with a .22 hoolow point. Of course I use a razor blade to gash the top of the bullet so it would spread better. I won't do it again. I was stupid then and didn't realize it could have opened up in the barrell and cause a backfire.Originally Posted by thayne

Ya got kids in the house.... PLEASE be careful... lock 'em up in a safe... you read or hear about too many horror stories.Originally Posted by tekkieman

I have a kid, but he's just under 2 yrs. old. Regardless I always have trigger locks on my arms at all times, when not in use. And the Ammo is also locked in a small safe in another room. There are 2 blanks for each gun that are in an out of reach cupboard. The reason for that is scare factor in case of an intruder and I can't get to my ammo right away.

I understand the concern, DVD_Ripper - I don't disagree, her safety is the number one concern. Both her mother and I were raised to respect firearms from a young age, and she will be as well. When they are introduced to them early, and taught respect for them, the fascination factor quickly disappears. -
This is yet another example of the brutal and murderous nature of the bloodthirsty US forces.Originally Posted by Capmaster
The man in the video was obviously an orphan school janitor checking to see if his broom handle was straight enough so he could sweep away the bodies of all the children murdered by US bombs.
Not content with shooting him in the back, they then murdered him when he put his broom down in surrender to the cowardly soldiers.
He now leaves 37 orphan children and a wife who has no one to beat her any more.
I hope you are all happy.
Praise to Micahael Moore.Regards,

I see that you were watching NBC's account of the storyOriginally Posted by rhegedus

If it were the FOX network they would have made the count 50 children and 4 wives. They also would have said he was a local FedEx carrier and he was only delivering a FedEx Tube package. When he put it down, they shot him dead so they could steal the broom meant for the new janitor at the local islamic school. NBC is always getting their stories wrong.Originally Posted by Capmaster
