thebuns1 4,323 Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 I dont think it matters, as the end result is what counts. Its not like after he was shot he was skipping around singing follow the yellow brick road. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

YOT 3,743 Posted September 16, 2012 Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 I know I've killed plenty of game with birdshot, Very few suffered long. I really didn't need proof from FOX news that birdshot can and will kill. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lone Star Arms 2,047 Posted September 16, 2012 Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 Birdshot tends to spread out, and third world shithole medical facilities are not particularly good at cleaning up infections. I suspect more than one of these shitwads ended up with a load, and that birdshot was not an accidental choice. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lone Star Arms 2,047 Posted September 16, 2012 Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 I understand that agency budgets are tight and that we are up against mandatory cuts, but It would be my pleasure to supply and build a select fire Saiga 12 shotgun, and four cases -1000 rounds, of Federal 9 pellet 00' buck , or 2000 rounds of Estate Heavy Game Loads, #6 birdshot- free of charge - to the first US embassy located in the Middle East, who will take me up on the offer. If the US Embassy is located in any of the Middle Eastern countries where Americans have been killed or wounded by foreign nationals, I double that offer. Here's the math: With 9 pellet 00' buck, every time the hammer strikes the firing pin, nine (9), eight point three (8.3mm) projectiles are sent downrange at sixteen hundred feet per second (1600 FPS). At a cyclic rate of around six hundred rounds per minute, (600 Rounds Per Minute), you are sending 5,400 (Five Thousand Four Hundred), 8.3 mm (Eight Point Three Millimeter) projectiles down range per minute. At 600 rounds per minute, an 8 round mag = 72, 8.3mm projectiles delivered in less than a second. A 12 round mag or drum = 108, 8.3mm projectiles in just over a second. A 30 round drum yields 270, 8.3mm projectiles in about three seconds. Form 5 transfer required. All NFA rules apply. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_-P-8iZD1U 11 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Didn't do much stopping from the sounds of things. I'm sure the coroner thinks it stopped plenty Not only a day late and dollar short, but three days late. I just don't understand the birdshot-boner some of you guys have going on. If I'm going to shoot, I want 'em dead right there. I don't give a shit if he suffered more. Maybe if there were more dead fuckers falling off those fences these shit heads would have tucked tail rather than getting and burning our flag. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Someone's head getting turned inside out would have seen different results from the others in the mob. I want them dead on the spot as well. It's about stopping a threat, not asking the threat (with birdshot), to please stop what they are doing. First thing I thought of when this shit happened was select fire S12s with drums full of 00 in the hands of our fine Embassy Guards. Then I figured Obama wouldn't allow it and the thought went away. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thebuns1 4,323 Posted September 16, 2012 Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 Yeah not too many people want to go up against an assload of .33 caliber projectiles being spewed from a select fire 12 gauge from the high ground. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ChileRelleno 7,071 Posted September 16, 2012 Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 (edited) ^^^ +10^10 Anyone breaching the perimeter should have instantly been sprouting geysers of pink mist. That our Marines weren't allowed live ammo is just insanity. We've fallen a long way since Tripoli. Them fuckers understood strength and the will to use it back then, and they still do. Now they understand that we've the strength, but no longer the will. Edited September 16, 2012 by ChileRelleno Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ChileRelleno 7,071 Posted September 16, 2012 Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 When Americans Elect Fools & Cowards, History Repeats Itself In 1979 Carter threw the Shah under the bus, and we got the Ayatollah Khomeini and the 444-day hostage crisis – and a horribly bungled rescue attempt In 2012 Obama threw Mubarak under the bus, and we got Mohammed Morsi and at least a dozen US Embassies under siege – and four dead Americans. Carter & Obama, the two worst US Presidents in American History. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
