Default And you wonder why people hate guns

This is the STUPIDEST stunt pulled. The guy with the watermellon on his head is an a$$. The guy pulling the trigger is even more stupid pulling the trigger. I don't care if he is Carlos Hancock. I would also like to know where that 665 gram bullet went to at 2700+ ft per second after cleaning the water mellon off a$$head. GOD THIS CRAP PI$$ES ME OFF TO NO END. I have better than 10 rifles and a few pistols and would never put someones life in than kind of danger. It wouldn't be real funny if the bullet was bent or wrong or not enough power in the casting. He would have NO HEAD and the other guy would be in jail for life. Rick L. member of NRA for many years, just not a stupid one.

I'm willing to give it a try on ERAChas. I'll even use one of my shotguns with an open bore choke. I'm actually feeling pretty lucky so Chas should have nothing to fear.

Default Hope you put rock salt in it

Patrickt Pat hope you are using rock salt and going for the sting effect low brass #8 bird shot will do more damage, you need him about 30 ft away. Just hope he doesn't come back at you with something bigger Rick L.

I could not agree more.

Now some a$$hole will see that, and after saying, "Here, hold my beer", will kill his friend.

Looks like a Class 2 Misdemeanor - Reckless Endangerment to me.

Not much though.

Antics like this is what feeds the anti-gunners into a frenzy. Just what we 2nd Amendment advocates don't need. What idiots!

Cool video. Stupid video.

I don't know why people are getting bent out of shape. It's not like this is the first time something really stupid has been done with a gun.

I've read quite a few stories of someone pulling the trigger while aimed at another person and the trigger puller thought the gun was unloaded.

The first thing I thought of after I watched this video was money. How much money would it take for you to put that watermelon on your head? I know there is a dollar amount. If you say there is no dollar amount I'm betting your lying.

My dollar amount? Hmm... Probably 10 mil and I would do it. Maybe even 5 mil. Heck, dump a sack of money on the ground in front of me and I might do it for 2 mil.

Anyone else have a number in mind?

That makes it even more stupid. Some kids will find out it's fake and then show them up by trying it for real.
