Duck and pheasant `high-brass’ is good for varmints too.

[Vermont Lt]

I hadn’t heard that. Thanks for letting us know.

“For at least an hour after firing the gun just a few times, I was anxious and irritable.”

It was his time of the month.

[ought-six]

“One point of order its .556 not .566”

Actually, it is 5.56mm. Just sayin’.

[Zeppo]

Clearly we need to set up a “go fund me” page to buy New York Daily News reporter Gersh Kuntzman a lifetime supply of Depends.

I’d be willing to bet that he (?) pisses his pants whenever a car blows its horn, an air conditioner cycles on, or a telephone rings.

[AFreeBird]

Geez-O-Pete! It’s a frick’n .22!

I’d love to see this snowflake shoot anything in the .30+ range. I used to have (tragic boating accident) an over/under Browning 12GA that kicked real well as well.

Mules got nothing on Browning, Remington, Winchester and the like.

[AFreeBird]

Back in the day I used to work with a guy that had a .44. He had some guy making hot reloads for him.

[Do the math]

He would wet himself If he shot my 7mm mag rifle, it has a nice kick. The recoil never bothered me, but dagnabit that 7mm mag is loud.

[Carriage Hill]

I like my 6” .357mag for occasional range time, and that .44mag’s a real handful. I daily carry a 5” 1911 .45cal ACP. Good enough for what I need.

[refermech]

Yup, I laughed and laughed. I would not shoot that gun, I don’t weigh enough.

[Lurker]

I put 100 through my M1A on Sunday after I put 200 through my AR. I’d love to hand this idiot a 45-70 amid watch the reaction, or a Mosin.

SaveFerris said: "Now once on that was enough for me."

I was given some ammo by a friend leaving the state which included some 3 1/2 inch magnum 12 guage shells. I will never fire another one in my life.

It was super unpleasant. Very loud and a very hard kick. I was not entertained in the least.

[snooter55]

bfl !

[Impala64ssa]

Just heard Marc Levin sarcastically suggest that AR-15's be painted pink, to appease some tender sensibilities. Something like this?

[Farmer Dean]

When he’s done with your M44 he can try my M98 mauser in .45-70.He’ll really like the 500 grain loads.

[Farmer Dean]

I've got one of those Navy Arms .45-70 Mausers.I can stand some recoil,but that thing is at my upper limit.It is a one shot boar killer and that's it's only redeeming quality.

[yarddog]

I would have been better off getting a complete conversion but tried to get by on the cheap. I knew it would probably require some action work. Before doing it tho I wanted to make sure that it wouldn’t feed the 45-70 as is.

I already had a Siamese Mauser I had bought several years earlier for almost nothing. I had a good barrel put on the action by E.R. Shaw. The barreled action fit the original stock but as I mentioned, it kicked like a mule mostly because of the stock design.

It would only feed the top round reliably. I had decided to go ahead and have a gunsmith do the work but ended up selling it at a gun show.

The actions were made in Japan and everyone says they were extremely strong. Probably could stand really powerful loads.

[Farmer Dean]

I’ve shot some pretty hot loads through mine,500 grain lyman cast bullet at 1800 FPS.The recoil is fierce.

[Myrddin]

I'm comfortable with any of my big bore revolvers. The T/C Encore pistol shooting a 175 gr .308 and the T/C Contender shooting a 170 gr 30-30 are pretty darn painful.

[vpintheak]

Pussy. Seriously. What a pure pussified man.
