Shootin' Macs

A day at the range -- A Macintosh SE and a PowerBook 5300c getting shot.

Both were dead (with any worthwhile components removed before getting shot,) with serious physical defects. (AKA: neither was in collectible quality.) The remains were taken by a recycler afterward.

I offered both up on multiple vintage computer forums, free for local pickup, or free plus the cost of shipping; there were no takers.

The weapons used were a pair of AR-15's (chambered in 5.45x39) for the initial SE shoot, followed by Glock 17 (9mm,) Sig Sauer P250, Kel-Tec P32, Kel-Tec P11, J. C. Higgins Model 20, and FN PS90.

[ehurtley]

@digitalicful If you had read the description, you would see that nobody wanted these. I offered them up FOR FREE for multiple weeks on various computer collecting websites.

@ehurtley Do you still?

[ehurtley]

@Hac110 Yes. I still have quite a few to get rid of. Look on sites such as 68kmla and vcforum where I post them.

Always nice to see another Mac pushing up daisies. They aren't good for much else!

[HaloSpartanG13]

When you shoot the monitor of the mac off, be sure to add a "Headshot" sound.
