OK, I stick this one under your nose. Whaddayado ? Run or take a swing at me ? You have 5 seconds to define whether it's real or not, after that I pull the trigger. C-2-6 edited because I goofed up with the link http://imagem.webphotos.iwon.com/1000020968/1000020968_28200250554AM0.498222.jpg |
C&L, that was plan B. Would do that if it was a real gun. It would make me so mad that someone would be threatening me, I'd have to shoot him. Maybe in the leg just to get my point across.  Seriously, a guy tried to rob a jewelry store here a few years ago with a bb gun. Store owner didnt take the time to find out that it was a bb gun, shot robber 5 times with his .38. BG died. Family wanted to sue store owner. Judge said "aaannnkkkkk, wrong answer, not gonna happen". Said the guy shouldnt have been stupid enough to use a bb gun. |
With some slight variation, that's the game plan I'd pursue as well. |
| I saw that too, but it could be a 22 conversion. So I'm not going to stand there and ask wether it is or not. If someone points something at me that appears to be a weapon I will take the appropriate measures. 5 seconds or 55 seconds is not enough time to debate the authenticity of the threat. I can put a red muzzle cap on my genuine firearm and if you think it is a fake because of it, you lose, so if it looks like a weapon I will treat it as such |
I remember when I was taught some similar techniques we tried them with squirt guns and I think I got hit about 40% of the time. Beats doing nothing and just getting plugged, but I was a lot faster back then... |
Its impolite to point anyway. I hate rude people!
No one thought of the "Jet-Li move" in Lethal Weapon 4 when he takes off the slide of Mel's Beretta ? Although I like the set-up of this one. C-2-6 |
| Even my boys mentioned this when we watched the movie (LW). We're Jet fans. Don't nussle me up with what the US has. Who've we got? Tom Cruise? We haven't had a good action dude for years. That kid can do amazing things, but stipping the slide from an M9 with the mag in place is not one of them. Keenah Reevees (sp?) is getting my attention, but not overly so. |

All we have to offer is "Muscles from Brussels" aka Jean Claude Vandamme. Hey Kurt little OT question. When going through your photoalbums at your homepage I noticed a picture I thought I saw posted on I-SIG. You're on there as well, or am I dreaming ?
