HAWTHORNE, Fla. -- A 74-year-old man attacked by pit bulls Friday morning had his right arm amputated, his left arm partially amputated and suffered severe facial injuries, Putnam County deputies said. Deputies were called to the 200 block of Old Hawthorne Road in Hawthorne about 11 a.m. and found Roy McSweeney severely injured. McSweeney was taken to Shands Hospital in Gainesville and was in surgery Friday afternoon. His condition was not available. Investigators said the two dogs responsible for the attack belonged to McSweeney's neighbor.

They said the owner of the dogs gave both of them to authorities, and the pit bulls were euthanized and taken to the Putnam County Health Department to be tested for rabies.

Deputies said no further details could be released. .

I think he was referring to the M-N M44, 7.62X54R (aka “The Noisy Maggot.”)

Hey...where’d Patton@Pending take off to?

Talk about auto-immolate and run.

Sheesh.

Oh well.
If ya can’t run with the big dogs, stay under the porch.

Since I live in the boonies, I now have a mad desire to put the boy in the car and drive until I find a town or neighborhood to parade him through.

I bet he’d like that.

If you’ve seen one endless mountain, you’ve seen them all.

He needs variety.

Yup.

Me and #1 Son each got us a 91-30 model of the same piece.

880 rounds of ammo for about $100.

Fun for the whole family
