@eaglehooves I don't think going on PS3 would be considered interesting. :p What about you?
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 20:53:57 UTC from web -
@eaglehooves Agonising over contemplating expensive trains to london... You?
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 20:55:13 UTC from web-
@purplephish20 @pinhooves Spent the afternoon at a shooting range, which was pretty cool. Killing the home network trying to get ponies now.
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 20:57:16 UTC from StatusNet iPhone-
@eaglehooves sweet.. what gun did you use??
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 20:59:24 UTC from web-
@irishlaw18 A .22 S&W, a .380, and a rented M9. :D
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 21:01:02 UTC from StatusNet iPhone-
@eaglehooves dude.. i have a .22 lever action iron sights.. i would hit my target at 100 yards away..
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 21:01:58 UTC from web-
@irishlaw18 I have good .22 rifle with a scope, but since its too cold for the outdoor ranges we just did pistols.
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 21:04:16 UTC from StatusNet iPhone-
@eaglehooves All this talk of firearms is making me jealous. I still need to find a shooting range her in town... if there is one <.<
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 21:05:41 UTC from web-
@tenmihara We don't have one here either, it part of why I'm excited. We had to head out into the country a bit.

@eaglehooves yeah.. i love my .22.. it's the only gun that i own.. it's a pain to reload.. but i love it..

@irishlaw18 Is it a side loaded tube? Being able to only load one bullet at a time has it's ups and downs <.<
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 21:07:19 UTC from web-
@tenmihara no.. it has a chamber at the barrel of the gun.. well right under the barrel.. i have to remove this long stick thing, then load it.. then drop it back in.. then cock it.. ugh..
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 21:09:55 UTC from web-
@irishlaw18 Ah, okay that would be a pain. I'm fond of revolvers myself; good old cylinder loading with no jamming =D
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 21:12:25 UTC from web-
@tenmihara Revolvers are incredibly efficient, the only disvantage being the ammo limitation 8 bullets, and the impossibility to use a silencer.
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 21:14:14 UTC from web-
@nerthos MOst revolvers I've seen are 5/6 shots; haven't seen an 8 capacity cylinder before =O
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 21:15:31 UTC from web-
@tenmihara 8 bullets cylinder is very rare, but it's the practical limitation for a revolver. If the cylinder is bigger than that, it becomes unpractical and a waste of space, or requires a way too complex mechanism, making clips or magazines a much easier solution.

@nerthos That is true; but the sound is part of the fun >3 I can't see the need for a suppressor unless I was actually doing something I shouldn't be. Well, I suppose they are also meant to stabilize the shot =O
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 21:16:40 UTC from web-
@tenmihara In fact, they're not good for stabilizing the shoot. The way they work, the pressure of the air and gas while the bullet passes through the silencer, just slows down it. A longer tube is the only way to stabilize it. Though, you can enhance precission if you add a piece of tube to the end of the cannon, to redirect the pushback http://ur1.ca/7htei

@tenmihara i love revolvers.. it would be awesome if my rifle had the same revolving cylinder as the revolver..

@eaglehooves it's not my choice of weapon when zombies attack, though.. because it takes forever to reload.. but..
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 21:07:05 UTC from web-
@irishlaw18 When zombies attack, a pistol, a shotgun, a sword or sledgehammer and something to burn things with are the best choices. Mostly because you have to either dismember or burn the corpse, shoots can't do too much damage to zombies. But, then again, just waiting a week or so on a makeshift bunker would work too, because once the nerves start decomposing, the zombies just drop to the ground unable to move.
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 21:10:11 UTC from web-
@nerthos nice.. i think that you thought about this wayyy too hard..
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 21:15:29 UTC from web-
@irishlaw18 What? Everypony needs a zombie plan.
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 21:16:34 UTC from web -
@irishlaw18 Nah, it's just that I know some things about biology and theorical necromancy. If I can find some kind of working necromancy, my life limitation problems are somewhat solved.
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 21:24:55 UTC from web-
@nerthos hmm.. ok.. nicely done..
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 21:26:46 UTC from web-
@irishlaw18 Hehe, everypony has their hobbies, right?
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 21:27:53 UTC from web-
@nerthos yeah.. mine's mostly singing.. and i recently found out that i am good at shooting with shotguns.. when i went claypigeon shooting for the first time.. i did awesome..
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 21:28:56 UTC from web-
@irishlaw18 I'm good with weapons, but suck at singing xD it's one of the two things I can't do, along with working in teams.
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 21:30:40 UTC from web-
@nerthos but, are you even interested in singing??
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 21:32:18 UTC from web-
@irishlaw18 Not much, really. I don't get easily interested in things I can't do, when there's LOTS of things I can do with ease.
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 21:33:42 UTC from web-
@nerthos nicely put..
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 21:34:08 UTC from web -
@nerthos me.. i like a little bit of everything.. i like to sing, mostly.. but, i recently got into liking guns..

@eaglehooves Good afternoon, I may be adding the bearing to my trebuchet which could be exciting should it fail, couple hundred pounds of force behind a 10 foot steel pipe that could go in any direction :D
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 20:55:42 UTC from web-
@macpony55 Ooo. Sounds fun!
