Hi guys!
Its been a while since I posted...but here I am again! (yes, with my armchair commando posts, I know)
Now this is the thing: I don´t know if you guys remember my cousin I talked about in a earlier thread..yes, the one who would love to get a gun but can´t get his parents to agree...I was thinking of giving him a CO2 gun (I know, I have given him a nice knife and some OC, but the guy is nuts for a gun). Why CO2? Recently I had an experience -which I also talked about in a previous thread- in which even though I would have preferred a gun, the little CO2 thing really worked ok...
Before you guys start telleing me that it is dangerous (I KNOW THAT!!!)because it could be mistaken for a real gun, or get him shot, let me tell you that we have discussed it and this guy is really responsible and understands that the only use it could ever have would be as a VERY SMALL "leverage" when attacked by an unarmed robber (Yes, here in peru most BG's just "tell you" they have a knife, or maybe they have rocks, but the average street thug doesn´t carry - guns are WAY too expensive here). Anyway, he is not so well built, so I guess every little bit helps.
Now, the question here is : BB or pellet? I know that he will mainly use it to practice shooting, but if the time comes..I guess it would be a very nice addition to his "less lethal" stuff.
Thanks guys.
