Don't take a knife to a gunfight !

I second that, never seen one with a suppressor around here either.

All the bushmasters used on the south Auckland police range have them. It gets a bit noisy inside the building...!

[Swoop]

Your aren't broadening anyones horizon, you are speaking crap.

You shouldn't put yourself down like that. We all know you spout a lot of crap. Go and write some tickets to cheer yourself up you old fart
Birthday hangover gone by now???

I would have thought there would be a pretty good chance that it would exit being that it was fired from pretty close range.

Wasn't the guy samoan through? The chicken bones probably absorbed most of the impact.

Will the shooter be done for cruelty to animals as well then?

Now you're just being childish.

I would hope most drivers pay more attention to the road than counting crosses or doing equasions with a calculator whilst driving...

Me too... good game for the kids to play while passing the time of day tho.. My almost three year old can only count to 20, so the calculator helps...

Have you driven it? A 2 km straight with good vis does not warrant double yellows.

Driven big chunks of it... awesome views, awesome roads too, even on the Waioeka gorge... lost two mates to that one tho.

Excellent idea!
Helps the kiddies with maths and they have a bit of fun along the way

I was thinking of the "killer highway" through Maungatawhere.
Where Jafa's go to die.

There would be little deformation of a .45ACP round at close range on soft tissue.
9mm round is higher velocity, makes a smaller hole and does less damage than the .45
Firing against steel targets sometimes a 9mm round sometimes won't even knock them over.
US military units are reverting back to the .45 from 9mm because it is more effective and putting people down, fast.
Personally, I'd have shot the B**tard with a .357 or .44 magnum, he wouldn't have been going to hospital though. (save the tax payer some money. Shoot to kill I say.

12 gauge with 3" 00 buck rounds. He wouldn't have got to his feet after that.

I put down $50 on the fact that you would do the exact same thing that guy did if you were in his situation. You shoot at the large moving mass unless you know how to react otherwise.

Either you're trolling, or you're a moron.

Who in their right mind, in the position of Shop Dude, would want to deal with the additional and inevitable heat from causing a death? You'd have to be psychopathic to want to play God, pass judgement and kill people.

And, Mr Wheelie, I don't think you're a psychopath. I think you're a pasty-faced fantasising twat who, faced with that situation, would probably just poop your trousers and then, even if you *did* have the balls to pull a trigger, put several random rounds into doorframes, shelves and the other side of the driveway.

Anonymous internet bravado is really quite unbecoming.

[Bend-it]

Ssshhhhh!!! Don't wake him from dreamworld!

[Lou Girardin]

I think if I was ever forced to shoot someone, I'd prefer they weren't around for their lawyer to spin a web of lies at the court hearing.
This goes double for doorframes, shelves etc.
