Tried to commit suicide by pellet gun?!? And they let THIS guy drive the boat?

Yeah heard about that yesterday...even though my mother took her own life with a gun I about laughed my ass off at this.

slit his wrist and shot himself with a pellet gun.... you know I bet that hurts

ferry captain ? hahah, he can't even do the suicide right

you can buy pellet guns that are quite powerful...basically have the power of a .22 caliber pistol.

However there is a reason that mafia used to love to use .22's for executions because once that thing entered the skull it ricocheted around and scrambled the brains...so either way if you lived or died you were fucked.

I have a pellet rifle and it will penetrate a 3/4 inch pine board at fifty feet...do you think it could penetrate a skull at point blank range?

Mines longer....


And it shoots through oak!

lets arrange for a test :Graucho

I've already posted that there are powerful pellet guns...however I still think it's quite funny that this idiot used it to try and kill himself.

The chances of it doing serious damage vs killing him are just too great ...I sure as hell would rather live knowing I accidentally killed people rather than live as a tard in a wheelchair drooling and still knowing I killed people.

dunno, try it

I was in the process of posting...and you are correct about the possibility of doing serious damage without killing.

Back in the late 70's or early 80's... NE Indiana there was a mentally messed up kid and he killed some people with a pellet pistol. Just the ideal gift for someone like that and then not keep it locked up!

We have a pellet rifle that will shatter cinder blocks in the backyard. Don't know how far it is... I'm terrible with distances.

That was a real mess too. 4 people got limbs severed off but were still alive. One lady had both her legs sliced clean off and she was freaking out they said when she realized it.

I have a benjamin pellet gun(.22cal) , it is capable of killing small mammals quite easily. But for suicide................:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Anyway, he shot himself in the chest.. now that's GOTTA hurt..

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Um, wasn't sure if you're referring to pellet guns... or what. Couldn't find the context you were referring to with this...

Yea use to have bee bee guns wars when we were kids and I got shot just below my right nipple and it went in, hurts like hell.

crossman pumpmaster 740 with a scope!

Thats why we need a 5 minute waiting period for hand guns. :winkwink:
