    Say if you wanted to give the impression to the authorities when they arrive that you were wounded at the scene of a very exciting shootout, where on your body would you shoot yourself?


    I was thinking maybe a grazing shot to my forearm?

    I think the real question op is, who are you trying to set up with attempting to murder you and why?

    **** no, you'd never walk properly again......

    Forearm or thigh (if you can avoid the bone)

    I know the answer to this one.

    The best place to shoot yourself is nowhere.

    Would it leave gunpowder marks at close range?

    The arm nice juicy vein.

    I think there are tests and they can tell if you have fired a weapon.

    I have watched too many crime dramas on TV.

    Screw that I’ll shoot the door and complain that I got some splinters.

    You'd want to avoid the femural artery as well.

    There'll be residue on your hand and clothes from holding it, and if shot at close range, on the wound.

    So a contraption of some sort would be needed to hold the gun and shoot.

    I would presume the foot as people are always shooting themselves in the foot :D

    Thats what they used to do in ww1 to get sent home... but it was so obvious a spot you shoot yourself in they copped onto it.

    Earlobe. You can live with one earlobe.

    I really hope you are not being serious. That would be one of the worst places to shoot yourself... Some posters are clueless


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,140 ✭✭✭✭odyssey06


    How are you going to aim a shot accurate enough to graze you without it being fired from such close range and angle that it could remotely look like you were wounded in a shootout by someone else?

    I'd say he is being serious, sur logically if you shoot in a hole it can't hurt as you're not making a new hole?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,310 ✭✭✭Immortal Starlight


    You are going to have to curve the shot.

    What about your internal organs. You'd be dead in minutes. As I said clueless

    The fleshy part of the thigh, just don't ask Bobby Baccalieri to do it for you.

    The bullet wouldn't touch any internal organs.
    The perfect plan.
