The land where children play with guns.
“When we were kids, we used to modify our parent’s shotguns and then shoot them for fun” has got to be one of the most american things i’ve read
“I’d just assume” 😂
That’s a new bone apple tea to me
For what? Adjust a sum?
“I’d just as soon”
“He was not” what? I can’t make it out through the watermark
“a pheasant”
“Pleasured”
“Pleased”
“Pleased”
Imagine giving your kid a shotgun, ignore their cutting the barrel off and letting them play with it in the yard.
Kid could mean a lot of things.
By the time I was ten, we had major safety rules branded into our brains about all sorts of dangerous things, including guns.
Growing up in a shop, we’d catch hell for even pointing the air hose in someone else’s direction.
We had drills that could easily break your arm if you weren’t super careful.
It all depends on the parents.

Frequency illusion going hard. This is my second time hearing the term “wrist breaker”. The first time was earlier today.
Haha, same. Lemmy really has that small village feel, sometimes!
It’s a nice looking gun for being funtionally useless. It’s a muzzle loader and the manufacturer recommends 40 grains of black powder which is a pretty small load.
One of the reviews I read said the muzzle velocity and energy are something like 250fps @ 70 ft/lbs. Basically on par with a .22 short fired from a pistol of similar length. The recoil is also pretty minimal.
Basically good for showing off and bad for shooting anything.
Sounds like it is perfect for the old rock salt special.
Rock salt mostly turns to powder from the charge and the rest is powder on impact.
It says it’s "break open,* which I assume means break-action. It has the lever on top for it.
At least the one in the story is single-shot.
The double barrel is a great idea: one shot to snap your wrist bringing the barrel in line with your head and a second round ready to finish the job…
“I mean, what could possibly go wrong?”
With birdshot, this would be fine. With slugs someone, perhaps multiple people are getting injured.
I’m sure calibers exist that could knock me over, but I haven’t fired one. Remember a lot of times being warned that it “kicks like a mule” and I brace for it but when I pulled the trigger, it barely did anything.
Started making me hate shooting in video games because I know I can control the recoil on some of the weapons used in the game in real life better than the game allows you to. Mostly small caliber, semi-auto things like 9mm handguns but I have also fired a fully automatic MAC-11.
I love shooting 12ga shotguns. Except for one. An old bolt-action Westernfield shotgun. Most uncomfortable gun I’ve fired. Manageable recoil, but it always left bruises.
I’ve done 12 and 10 guage shotguns. The biggest thing I’ve shot was a 30 ought 6. The sound was worse than the kick. Really shoulda had ear protection for that fucker.
I’ve been happy with every other 12ga I’ve shot. It’s just that one particular gun that I hate. I think the solid butt plate is narrower. It feels more like getting hit with a hammer than kicked by a mule.
Grand dad’s 16ga coach gun… [Chef’s kiss]. Hard to find ammo for it, though.
