Shooting from a car window

Post by BrotherRon »

I just had to make a mew thread for this.....

I will join Boo in the watching section. lol
And whoever is doing the shooting might want to consider bringing an extra pair of shorts along. :lol:
I shot a red squirrel from my bathroom window last year and won't do it again.
It was a good clean shot but the "WHAAACK" when the limb hit the trim around the window almost caused me to mess myself. :shock:
When my wife asked what that sound was I just said I shot a squirrel from the bathroom window. A couple days later she asked me about the dent in the trim on the side of the window. :lol:
Luckily there wasn't any damage to the limb

I'd do it from my buddy's 1973 imperial, has no window post and is open from front to back. It'd be easy even with my ibex

I would think that the reasonable approach would be (providing your poachmobille is so equipped) to use the moon roof --- stand up in the seat and let r' rip.

My buddy got just railed by concussion blast from a 270 out the sunroof. He was in the driver's seat. Said it felt like someone kicked him in both ears at the same time

I think we should one up this contest. For every shot from inside the vehicle that contestants make, they have to chug a beer. Kinda like beer pong, but in a confined space, with onlookers and a dangerous pointy object floating around. I'd watch that game for sure.

A drive by target at Boo Fest? A BMW with a keg of ManAntler in the back seat. Sounds like Redneck Olympics for all those not going to Rio.

We should make it a little more dificult by using a faster car. How about using a Shelby Cobra with the keg in the back seat.
