Join the Empire today! Or die, rebel scum! Group: Advanced Members Posts: 13,455 Member No.: 1,473 Joined: Mar 18th 2004 Location: Update Profile | So, i'm interested in what people would say. What is the most manliest thing you have done? Did you kill a human? Lift a car to help someone remove a flat tire? Drink gasoline only to have the energy to run one hundred miles? For me, i'd say... shooting a few different guns, and getting almost a bullseye on a high powered rifle on my first few shots. (100 yards, but still!) That or maybe 'saving' a few animals from a large brush fire that happened a decade or so ago near my town when crashing over at my friends house after a night of playing ID the night before. |

Just this weekend I got my pinky stuck under the wheel of a car when the jack failed. It wouldn't stop bleeding for hours. Didn't break anything but I can say that for a split second, my pinky held up the weight of a car coming down on it. Before you ask for pics or it didn't happen, I do have pics.. they are gross and probably not appropriate for the forum. I'll dole out the pointless machismo in small quantities as this thread develops- I drank a teaspoon of motor oil on a dare once. |

I rebuilt a long stroke steam hammer, I bet none of you can say that. Not ours but similar:

It's not that bad... Had to use it twice: once in the day, once at night. It just takes more time, effort, and patience. Never rebuilt an engine, but I'm currently removing one. Never used a gun either. This post has been edited by Kiroshino on Jun 8 2015, 04:05 PM | ||

Been thinking of taking a class at a firing range sometime so I can at least learn the basics with professional guidance. | ||

Not unless you're shooting something crazy. 9mm and 45 and shotgun shells are generally pretty cheap. [ Post made via Mobile Device ] | ||

Ballistic heartbreak Group: Advanced Members Posts: 16,831 Member No.: 1,034 Joined: Nov 22nd 2003 Location: Richards Majestic, apartment 51 | Accidentally cut myself with a half-serrated blade once, hit the artery on the knuckle of my index finger, bleed like a broken heart, but I casually cleaned myself up and put a bandage on it, not giving a fuck. Infection? Stitches? Panic-induced stress? Fuck that; I don't have time for any of that. This post has been edited by MidnightViper88 on Jun 8 2015, 07:17 PM |

This is the one I was looking at a while back. Haven't really looked around, so you might find better places: http://www.shoreshotpistolrange.com/classes.html |
