<< It reminds me of news reports that show combatants firing their Kalashnikovs over a wall without aiming at anything. ;) >>



That's what they call "suppression fire". Normally you do it with machine-gun, but I guess Kalashnikov can be used as well.

Speaking of stupid. How many people have you seen split their eye open with the scope of a deer rifle? I know one guy that did it every deer season.

I seen that in a movie and thought how could anyone actually do that, then I seen a guy who did, and couldn't stop laughing. Not at him really just at the thought of coming home from killing a deer and the animal getting the last laugh even from the soon to be grave.

I did that the first time shooting a .300 Winchester Mag. We'd been shooting .308's for awhile and I really didn't expect the .300WM to kick like it did. Gave me a nice moon shaped scar as a reminder. I did successfully dot the "i" on the Miracle Whip lid at 50 yards, so it wasn't for not. ;)
