He got his deer the other day. From a mile away. With one round. .50 BMG from a Barrett M82. He said he blew the deer in half.

    Therein lies the problem; he was using a Jennings. Sit back, grab a drink, and let me tell you what happened to me this morning while hunting.

    There I was....

    Friday, November 28, 0300. Yeah, that's early, but I like to have the element of surprise; later in this account of my experience, you will see that 'element of surprise' and my trusty sidearm are the only two reasons I am still here to share this harrowing story of adventure with you all.

    Anyhoo, as I mentioned before, it was 0300. Dark? You bet it was, but I have a unique condition where my pupils stay in a constant state of dilation, and they gather any and all ambient light available. That allows me to use what physicians and specialists have told me is in essence, built-in night vision. I don't fool with pesky flashlights or any other illumination devices, as I have no need for them. Back to the story. I was stealthy in creeping to my stand, even resorting to the low crawl at times to avoid detection. As I approached my stand, I heard rustling in the leaves, and voices. 'Oh hell no!' I thought to myself. It was evident that a person or group of people were either 1) Attempting to use my stand to hunt or 2) Attempting to steal my stand. Both offenses, as far as I'm concerned, warrant punishment via poisoning; lead poisoining, that is. Now hang on; this is where it get's interesting.

    I was flat on the ground, in a low crawl. I drew my sidearm. I rolled up to to a kneel, lept into the air, and expected to suprise the perps. There was no one to be found. No voices, no rustling. I thought to myself, "Self, you're not dealing with amateurs here. These are professionals." My mindset immediately changed. I knew that if I were to make it out of this one alive, I would have to be more stealthy and more ruthless than the trash who were about to meet their doom at my hands. I was preparing to drop back down into a low crawl, when from my six, I heard a voice that I will never forget until the day I die. It was a low, guttural, "Freeze!". At this point, the adrenalin was coursing through my veins at the speed of light. The 'voice' said, 'Turn around, slowly.' I turned, and was face to face with my adversary. I could not believe what I was seeing. It was a deer. A 12 point buck. A 12 point buck that talked. I schit you not. It was the damndest thing I had ever seen. I was about to draw down on him, when I heard more rustling behind me. Another voice, but lower, and even more sinister than the first one, said, "Draw your pistol, and drop it on the ground at your feet." I was outnumbered. Outnumbered by evil, talking deer. I had already urinated on myself, and knew this was survival. I knew I had to stay alive so I could relay this to all my GB Forum friends. It was them or me. Fortunately, they did not have any flashlights, and failed to see me draw. As I stated before, I have 'night-vision', and could see them clearly. I drew my Lorcin L-25. The stone-cold killer glaze in my eyes must have reflected off the bright finish of my weapon, because I could immediately see the fear in their eyes. They knew they were dead deer, it was just a matter of seconds. I drew down on them, and shouted, "DIE, MF'ers, DIE!!!!"

    I never discharged my weapon. They both fell over, apparently fear being the cause of their demise.

    Little did I know, but a game warden had heard the raucous, and witnessed the entire incident. He approached me, and I assumed he was about to tell me to holster my weapon. When his flashlight shined on my 'killer' stare, not only did he urinate on himself, but defecated as well. He knew I was not one to be trifled with.

    Whadda ya think of that?

    Not quite sure where you are from, but they must breed wildlife meaner here in Missouri. I shot at a groundhog from 60 yards with a anzio 20mm. He caught the round with his teeth, spit it out and flipped me the brd before waddling away

    Right there is an obvious lie. To power 18 jet engines the aircraft would have to carry so much fuel that the combined weight of the fuel, engines, air frame, and weapons load would grossly limit the aircraft's top speed. I'm not even going to get into how large such a craft would be and that there isn't an airfield in existence that could support it. I mean, when the Airbus 380 came out most major airports had to be rebuilt to handle it's size and not just their terminals.
