Hey, it's just like a day at an IPSC or 3Gun match, but less work!
I liked it when they were set to only fall over for the 480 Ruger, or a head-shot with 44Mag. A quintuple-tap with a 40/45 might just make them fall...

No, but BILLLL did offer to give them copies of his bumper stickers.
BILLL: "Here's something to put on your squad car."
LEO: "Ummm..."
BILLL: "Of course, I wouldn't do it if you plan to ever get a promotion."

Those poppers caused more than a couple good lines to come out.
They were mighty heavy and set to lean forward so it did take quite a bit to make them fall.
first Billlll has his .22LR, hits it like 3 times NOTHING happens, he turns around and says "I need more gun" and picks up something bigger.
Then, it became obvious later that you needed a team effort. So, 3 or 4 guys would work their way down the line, and 2 or 3 shots at once (357, 45, whatever) and it would go down. head shots worked best. (more leverage)
About 3 of us were shooting at the last one and it goes down and I said "see, it takes a team to raze a village"
ok, I thought it was funny.
did anybody get a pic of Justin's revolver. it was cool.

Billll demonstrating the fully automatic loading feature of his eeeeevil sniper assault mortar, which can pass undetected through airport security, and could easily be purchased by terrorists at gun shows, although it would admittedly take four of them to lug it home.

The leftist extremists' worst nightmare come true: a black man with one of those terrible assault sniper weapons that are about to flood the nation's streets and cause sewer blockages from coast to coast—or something like that, anyway. It's hard to keep up with all the phobias floating around these days.

From the Colorado get together thread,July 19th,2004
(BTW,I have a 25 yard berm in the back yard.Since my neigbors are close,I'm going to ask for a limit to handgun calibers only (although last year we had some fun with Labgrade's 309 JDJ).
Boy, I'd hate to fire Billll's 12oz.-06 caliber mortar in a revolver frame. Maybe a Wichita,or Contender frame with a couple Handy-man jacks for cross sticks. What do you think Larry? This year we had sooooome fun with Billll's mortar!

Looks like Crystal had a great day and probably was happy to be amongst good friends .... hope she is coping OK these days. Great pic too of you and Sandy Larry - nice to have - hope that arm/wrist is doin OK>
I am late to thread cos Bonnie and I had a great day yesterday on a bike run ... joined by my son and other friends too - perfect weather for us also heaven be praised ..... and then today I was playing with my ''big boy's toys'' all day (and sweating) ... with my R/C model aircraft at a fun fly . good company there too but oh my - would I have forgone that all to have been able to come all ways over there.
I have one problem ................ where the heck is a pic of photographer #2 .. where the heck is a pic of the mysterious and mythical Standing Wolf ... dang it - I had hoped at last to see this fella ... and now .. zilch. It just ain't good enough SW - always hiding behind you lens. I mean .. come on .... over 10 grand of your posts and I am still waiting!

Great Pics!
I gotta get one of them Black Powder Cannons. I have an Idea.
Well it is finally nice to put faces to members / some voices.
I guess I'm going to have to come out - somebody has to fell some birds for Crystal's wonder dog to retrieve - didn't see a shotgun - not a one.
Chris, and I need to make a effort to attend. Invite the Cops and neighbors...My theory - invite the neighbors and cops- who is gonna complain? Even if someone did , who are they going to complain to?
Billl - I have a question / inquiry if I may. Umm... can a fella do up a load of pellets...what kind of payload would a fella be looking at? Just wondering

A mortar?

The pop can full of cement weighs about a pound and a half. I fired the thing once with a six pound lead ball, and the recoil broke one of the axles. I'd say fill 'er up with marbles, or musket balls, top the load off with a styrofoam keeper, then tilt it over near horizontal for the worlds largest sawed-off.
Oh, wait, the fellow who went deer hunting with the 12 lb Mountain howizer already did that.
Well, how about duck, then?
