To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and call whatever you hit the target.www.NewHopeEquine.com - Health and Healing through Horses.

We should start a petition to bring it back. Use paintball guns. 10 paces, turn, fire!

I'd love to do it with the current crop of kneeling snowflakes in this Olympics. I would want rock salt rather than wax bullets though.

Absolutely. We’ve done that with Simunition rounds. Little bullets of soap with plastic caps. They hurt enough to let you know you’ve been hit. Pretty fun.

Heck, why not. The kids and I did paint ball guns and as a child we had BB gun wars. And there was no such thing as protective gear, just 3 rules, No Head Shots, no closer than 10 feet and 1 Pump Only.

Only if we can pick our opponent. I know a couple of politicians I would like to face.
A clear conscience is often the sign of a fuzzy memory.

BigPig: Training with Miles gear and blanks is one thing. Full out with Air-Softs is totally believable, and they hurt!!
Beer and whiskey, 'cause you can't drink bacon!!

I volunteered to be a bad guy for the Wylie PD for a few simulation exercises back when they would let civilians volunteer. They were short on protective vests, so some of us went without. I will attest that the simunition will definitely draw blood. In a cew exercises, the bad guys had guns too, so we got to get some revenge. Lol. It was like paintball but with more realism. It was actually fun.
