I went shooting today up in the hills round here for the first time in like forever.... shot an "M1-Grand"... WW2 rifle 30-06... fucking thing deafened me... I didn't even think of earplugs so I just pulled my hooded sweatshirt up over my ears as tight as possible... it still hurt like fuck, that gun is loud as hell... on a better note we blew up myold TV and a fire extinguisher. Are all guns as loud as this thing was? It was a new one, not an original ww2 one btw.
 
sweet, my grandpop has one of those....I never fired it though

i believe his was used in or made during WWII
 
damn bro shit is the loudest thing i've ever heard.. u feel a cuncussion like 20 feel away from it... and i go to a lot of very loud concerts w/o problem.. this thing just fuxed me up good.

There's a lot louder guns than that. Try cranking out 30 rounds from a 7.26 round without earplugs :D
 
when i shoot my .38 special it fucks with my ears pretty bad.

need some earplugs because i think it's doing some actual damage.

What caliber do you shoot, .22 or .380?

i've shot plenty of different caliber pistols....but I have a 9mm


you trying to be a smartass again? what's wrong with a .22 or a .380?

The .22 .380 and the 9 are all softer calibers, no ear protection really required, except maybe for hotter 9 mm loads.
 
nothing wrong w/ .22's they are some of the most fun guns to shoot.

easy to aim, cheap bullets.......on my .22 rifle i have two 30 bullet clips taped together rambo style. my .22 pistol is also a lot of fun.

I let my friends who have never shot a gun before use these alot because they are the easiest to learn with.

fun stuff.

I've been shot.............therefore all guns suck.........

Ive been shot through the back and neck, its no big deal. It doesnt make me dislike guns, I liked them before and still do. As long as their not pointing at me of course.
 
getting shot might change some things but I would never get rid of my guns.

both you dudes got shot up? mind telling how that happened?

In the stomach.....by a pussy who thought the gun made him invincible..........he walks with a limp now......and I have a nasty scar.......still hate guns.........theory on that is, since I can't rid the world of all the spineless pussie's who try to show their sack by brandishing, and or firing a gun.................down with guns....

Mine was really stupid. My friends dad had a gun and we were trying to get it down from the shelf, when it fell and went off. It was a Walther .380, went into my neck and came out my back. No biggie.

That's awesome that you defended yourself like that. What a little pussy,
 
wow

i camped out at one of my dad's rental properties one night because someone had been breaking in and stealing his/my tools.

good thing he never came back-i think i would have regretted bashing his head in w/ the bat i was campin out wit....

Did it have a banoet(sp?) on it?

I fired this one rifle from WWI or II and it was the loudest gun I've ever heard.

It was like a cannon and heavy as fuck.
 
ZKaudio said:
heavy as fuck, but no bayonett... it's one of the newer ones they just reproduced.

This was an original, long bastard, had a sliding sight on it.(if that makes sense).

It had a clip and held like 4 rounds and 1 in the chamber. Bolt action also.

Weird thing is........I don't think I could have........I mean I was pissed.......1. this kid is blatantly fucking up my shit 2. HE FUCKING SHOT ME!! But I had him locked up on the ground.....and it would have been easy as hell to break his neck......I just wasn't mad enough....must been the clomid......j/k.

Anyway.........I really don't think I could kill someone unless they were attempting to hurt my loved ones....(wife or daughter)....

He violated his probation and went to jail for 11 years........

He'll miss his 21st b-day......and pretty much all of his twenties.....it's weird I almost feel bad for him.......I just wonder how someone goes that wrong in life.........
 
You need to wear ear protection no matter what. Whether it's a .22LR or a 50 caliber. It WILL fuck up your ears. Contrary to Analbolic's musings, an explosion is an explosion. Just because it is a little less loud does not mean that you should go without ear-plugs. A hoodie is not going to do jack shit, wel maybe a 1 or 2 db reduction.

And Analbolic and Pitbull, sorry to hear about your firearm incidents. my sympathies.

As long as your ears don't ring, everything should be OK, shouldn't it? I heard that once your ears ring, that means some of your inner ear hair-cells have died.
 
By that time you are already screwed, Deus. Over time, Just the sound of the firing pin hitting the primer, while using a rifle, is enough to cause damage. Let alone when you discharge 40,000+ psi of exhaust gas in a matter of milliseconds. that is why you feel the concussion effect when you stand next to the rifle. Those 50 cal bastards give off so much concussion, that I can feel them on the other side of the shooting benches (i.e. 50 ft) But even a handgun does that to a smaller extent (except for those .50 AE monsters, i.e. not so smaller extent) ear-plugs are cheap. Hearing aids are not.


Out.
 
Well chewy, not being a doctor, I can not speculate on possible reprecussions but, I didn't mean to scare anybody with the "you're screwed" part. I was just commenting on the fact that once you see symptoms of injury, it usually means that damage has been done.
