Good idea about the potato! I’ve seen people fire tennis balls and some guy makes an adapter that fires golf balls. My Yugo SKS 59/66 cost me $125. Most dealers will let you pay them off too. If you end up with a semi-auto, make sure you are allowed to fire it at your shooting range. Pistols are neat, but I’ve never had the desire to own one. I just sold my fathers scanner, I think it was a pro-39…not positive tho. I have an old pro-46 which can be modified by turning it on whilst holding certain keys down…2,9 and Enter I think.. Back in the day, most every cordless phone ran somewhere in the 46.00-47.00 range and it was sooo easy to spy on people..lol Best, Chris

Anyone here own a rifle? If so, whats your favorite thing to blaze away at? So far I’ve slaughtered a toy doll, annihilated my old computer and blown a bowling ball to bits. I have a Yugo SKS 59/66 semi-auto that holds ten round, tho I do have a larger magazine that holds 30 rounds. It also fires grenades. This weekend I got an inert grenade and launcher. You can take the grenade out and fire tennis balls too if so desired, which I’ll probably do. All I need to do is to buy some blanks or make my own and I can fire this thing. Supposed to go up to 300 yards..lol I’ve also modified it a bit..Put a vented handguard on it which makes it look meaner than it already does, put a small scope on it and now have the launcher. I want to modify the trigger as well. Right now the trigger feels like crap and has a 32-35 pound pull. I want to get it down to a 20 pound pull. The other day at the range, some guy let me fire his blackpowder rifle, which had a 7 pound pull! It was such a hairtrigger that all I did was touch it and it went off…the guy should have told me this cause it scared the hell out of me. Best, Chris

I can’t hunt, I can’t kill things… When I first got my semi, I never told my shrink. Much MUCH later I told him (and my therapist) that I was an avid target shooter. Neither of them said a word really, nothing negative that is… I believe that if I had asked if I should get one, that they both would have said no, flat-out. I know I’m not going to go killing people with it, or myself. I trust myself and am extremely safe around it.. As for explosives, I never had a chance to play with them…Could be fun, but it scares me because of potential shrapnel.. I would guess the Pentium would fly higher because its smaller and lighter than a 486? When I shot apart my 486 at 100 yards, the damage it did to the comp was unreal. The bullet (7.62×39) would have a very small entry hole and a huge hole ripped in the back. The bullet would also ‘drag’ things right out the back of the comp. One even ripped half the hard drive right out…lol Best, Chris Best, Chris
