    Gary, I got some old 12 guage double report shot shells, they used to be used to controll birds around airports, thought I might try a coupe of those, bang coming out of the gun and then an air burst. might be fun..They are called TWIN SHOT, made by a company that uses a penguin as their logo.

    Nope, but if this weather holds I'll be enjoying my day off at the club tomorrow. The hard part will be deciding what to take.

    Nope, they still consider it discharging a firearm in the city limits, blanks or no blanks, and is a good reason to revoke a CHL permit.[}:)]

    Soooooooooo, I'll let out a big WHOOOP at the stork of 12 and let it go at that![;)]

    Not hardly, I have dug .22 slugs out of my roof shingles. Only way I would shoot would be at those fools shooting up.

    Against the law in Arizona - "Shannon's Law". Made a felony to "recklessly discharge" a firearm due to a 10 year old girl being killed by a falling bullet in Phoenix a couple years ago. The city of Poenix even has sound detection devices located throughout the city to pinpoint where shots come from and are encouraging neighbors to report on their fellow neighbors or anyone else that do any random shooting.

    My firearms will remain inside.

    Even with blanks, I wouldn't want to encourage morons to shoot their guns at midnight, some places here in Phx sound like a war zone on New Years (and Cinco de Mayo[xx(])

    Ask the Iraqi's about this! They shoot their guns into the air all the time......too bad they don't shoot quite "Straight Up" because what goes up.....MUST come down! A VERY POOR PRACTICE.....ILLEGAL MOST EVERYWHERE ...... as it should be!

    I always fire off a few 20ga dove loads at midnight! #8 shot doesn't travel very far so I don't worry about where they come down.

    Searching frantically for enough black powder to fire off the Colorado mortar but will be definitely filling the ground up with some 223 lead at midnight.[:D]

    Pack slow, fall stable, pull high, hit dead center.

    I have these little things called "Bird Bombs"
    A little "tear gas looking" pistol to shoot them with.
    They sound like a quarter stick of dynamite going off.
    Might see if I can find that darn thing. Hmmm.....

    in phoenix it doesn't need to be new years to make the idiots come out and shoot their guns. they do that anyways when the drug deals go wrong, or another gang came on their turf
