I hope you are away from people when you do this, I mean I rolled on the floor laughing it makes for a good exebition shoot, but guns are dangerous tools, I hope that you have enough leadway that you wont hit anyone comming by they can be killed by your tree trimming you know.

@manga12, Geez, I didn't realize they were dangerous; maybe that's why my neighbors have all been buckshot. :-)

thats how americans deal with problems...

my gosh.....

[hickok45]

@MrBiffi, Yep, it's really not a problem unless you are unfortunate enough to not have a decent shotgun! :-)

hey hickok, tomorrow im going into gander mountain to pick up a remington 870 marine magnum. ive never owned a shotgun before and i was wondering if you could answer a question for me.

ive heard some people say (not necessarily speaking about specific shotguns) that the quality of the round can cause issues in the ejection of an empty shell, has that ever been a problem for you? if so what kind of rounds did you try shooting to help.... im hoping not to spend 15 dollars for a box of 5 shells..

@sk8terfreak33 , I've not really had any trouble with cheap field loads. I buy a lot of the Federal at Walmart in boxes of 100. They work pretty well for tree trimming.

@buhrdt Well, what's the old saying, "When you have a hammer in your hand, everything looks like a nail. "

@xxweaponsxx123 ;)

[xxweaponsxx123]

@XHustonProductionsX Exactly...

[XHustonProductionsX]

@xxweaponsxx123 I never said guns are everything... but what if cars were illegal? They can mame, kill, cause a LOT of damage... same with firearms COMPLETELY harmless by themselves, just like a vehicle, so why ban them? Well because somebody very stupid made that law and where your at nobody cared and fought it, first they ban the 'dangerous guns' whats next? Maybe the dangerous people should be banned instead? Get my point bro? LOL

[xxweaponsxx123]

@XHustonProductionsX LOL why does it suck where I live. Guns are not everything bro... And china wtf?

[manga12]

They are the brenneke gold magnums, and they are 1 and 3/8 ounces at 1502 fps they will break an 8 inch cement edging brick in half with one shot, and my dad used one of my slugs to take down a doe that was bigger then two bucks that were with her, ripped the whole top half of the heart it was just gone not ruptured just gone.

and while I am not a large man 5"9' 148 lbs they are just as stout as you can imagine.

they have one for law use that will go though the brick without breaking it.

@manga12 I was just going by your comment... looked pretty anti-gun 'yutze' as you call it to me... LOL and 600 grain shells? That is one HELL of a HEAVY round for even a 12 gauge! Thats almost 1.5 ounces! LOL

[manga12]

dont group me with the other yutzes of youtube, I have handled a shotgun plenty, and can handle 600 grain 3 inch shells just fine, I might not be as involved as hickok but I know that even birdshot can do lots of damage to someone close up, there are some on youtube that are just plain unsafe I wanted to make sure hickok was not one of them.

@xxweaponsxx123 It was NEVER like that in the US... if our government ever tried to enact some BULLSHIT like that there would be a civil war at least, there is no way that americans would do that! In fact what you just said is a direct violation of our 2nd amendment, though most politicians seem to not care about the bill of rights anymore all I can say is it must suck to live where you do! Maybe move out of China? LOL

[xxweaponsxx123]

@XHustonProductionsX Nah wel...You can have guns with a gun license. Maximum of 7 guns per household. No fully automatic weapons. To get a gun license you must not have a criminal record. And you need to be in a gun club. And hours of paperwork... and police inspection 3 times a year... and some other shitty rules.

30 years ago it was just the same like in the USA... But then some crazy bitch people started to do some stupid things........
