    Would you take this shot?? How sure are you really of your marksmanship?? You have seconds to decide.Your buddy could be gored open by a wild boar,which are perfectly capable of doing so in close quarters.You can be a hero,or go down as the ultimate stupid hunter and live with killing someone out hunting.
    Your call...

    Squeaky bum time. Surprised the dogs didn't get shot.

    Negatory comrade, not a hope.

    I'd be remembered as the guy who was hunting with the stupid guy who got killed by the wild boar.

    And I wouldn't lose a wink of sleep either.

    Nope, and i don't give a crap about any half arsed ways of explaining away taking a shot like this, there is simply no reason for it.

    Either the other guy gets mauled or he doesn't, but it'd be worse to be shot, THEN mauled.

    As said above he took a second shot and the dogs were in the way.

    We've all taken "those" shots where we're unsure whether its a good one or not, so not claiming to be an alter boy, but NEVER in my life have i ever pointed a gun in the direction of someone let alone fired a shot across them or at them. Same goes for dogs.

    So this guy was target fixated, didn't identify the position of his mate or the dogs, fired towards them, etc. Broke many of the golden rules of shooting but these two mainly.

    Might want to give that cheap accomadation a skip in the future if you value your gunownership...Read it to the end,if you are wondering WTF it has to do with Ireland and then think on what we have just elected too,and what party they might go into power with.



    *** KNOW YOUR FOE: AIRBNB ***

    As we told you multiple times, the global gun owners' community has foes everywhere. Their names and their faces need to be known, so that each and every one of us shall be aware and do what's right for the protection and consolidation of #gunrights when the time comes.

    Our friends at Canada's National Firearms Association gave us a new name to add to the list today: Airbnb

    In an official press release dated back to February 6th, 2020 (https://news.airbnb.com/…/airbnb-announces-new-partnership…/), #AirBnB announced a pledge of 200.000 CA$ (205.896€ / 225.436 US$ / 174.846 GBP) to the #guncontrol advocacy and lobbying group "Canadian Doctors for Protection from Guns".

    On their website (http://www.doctorsforprotectionfromguns.ca/), the organization now backed by AirBnB overtly shows support for #British style gun control with these lines: "We can make our families and communities safer. ​Say yes to a ban on handguns and assault weapons in Canada".

    The announcement comes at a critical moment, as the now-minority #TrudeauGovernment in #Canada may any day impose sweeping gun control by an Order in Council (essentially a Government decree which would bypass the Canadian Parliament), mandating a full ban and #confiscation of most, if not all, #centerfire #semiautomatic #modernsportingrifles and #carbines, as well as many #shotguns (first and foremost all #AR15 variants).
    And indeed, they have announced their intention to do so, multiple times, before and after the last elections.

    The Trudeau Government also aims at passing legislation that would allow cities and Provinces to impose further gun control, eg. banning #handgun ownership on their jurisdictions – despite the fact that gun laws have always been a Federal/national lawmaker's purview in Canada.
    This would allow #Liberal-controlled cities, towns, and Provinces in Canada to disrupt the lives of millions of law-abiding, licensed #firearms owners.

    #JustinTrudeau and the Liberal Party of Canada | Parti libéral du Canada have close ties with the New Zealand Labour Party and #JacyndaArdern – the masterminds behind the expensive, punitive, completely useless, and utterly unsuccessful #gunban imposed in 2019 following the #ChristchurchShooting. We can thus only imagine where Mr. Trudeau got his inspiration from, and what are his goals.

    Canada may seem distant to gun owners in #Europe, or even in the #UnitedStates; but it actually isn't. We all know too well how gun control advocates and activists think alike and coordinate internationally; and worldwide, gun grabbers are taking a run at whatever firearm they deem "rapid-fire", "too lethal" or "too dangerous". In New Zealand, this is including lever-action and slide-action rifles. The same thing happened in Australia. The AR-15 and the AKM, being the iconic modern sporting rifles that they are, are just the tip of a huge iceberg of total prohibition and confiscation.

    Plus, but not less noteworthy, Justin Trudeau and "#Jackboot" Jacynda are regarded as the "young, beautiful and brave new generation of leaders" by the global "#progressive" political apparatus. Should their gun bans succeed, it will be just a matter of time before other "progressive" leaders will decide to follow their line and repeat their "beautiful, successful experience" elsewhere.

    This, we bring to your attention, dear followers, so that you may know, when the time is right, how NOT to spend your money in order not to embolden and strengthen the totalitarian gun grabbers who would want to see us disarmed.

    Canada is like a lot more countries, maybe even Ireland. You have liberal, metro-sexual, latte sipping cities and more conservative rural areas. I know after the canadian election last year, the western states of Alberta and British Columbia were talking about splitting off from the rest of the nation. You have the likes of these states which are massive in size, multiples of Ireland, with less representation in the Parliament than a single city in Ontario.

    I bought this in Lidl some time back probably because it was on sale and only just realised now that it's the dogs liathróidí when installed in a well hidden gun safe.

    Might save those accidental bangs and scrapes that seem to devalue equipment in a lot of secondhand buyers/sellers eyes.

    Well worth the 7 ish euro.

    They can make as many laws as they want to.Lets see them enforce them in a state that is now 98% green and even their sheriffs have said that they WILL NOT COMPLY OR ASSIST on enforcing. Gov Blackface Northam is going out on his ear nexy year and will have turned the state red as well.

    What sort of a parallel universe would we have to live in when AGS would do the like to Irish gun laws?:(

    Its not her party line that has me laughing, it's the trademarking of her name, establishing a foundation to deal with donations, royalties from her and her parents books, prize money, etc.

    She is so worried about people making money other than herself, of this hoax that she is putting up legal and financial restraints to make sure they don't. So if a kid walks in a march with one of her posters will she "Disney" them?

    Like the song says, "its all about the Benjamins". She will be this generations Al Gore. Scare mongering while getting ridiculously rich off it.

    So its creepy uncle joe and Tsar bernie left.

    Wonder how much the other got paid to drop out and how much it'll cost bernie to drop too.

    Then roll on creepy uncle joe with killary as running mate.

    Some conspiracy nuts say if he wins he'll step down within months citing health issues, killary takes the reigns and by default makes it to the oval office. Problem i see with that is joe won't win against trump. Neither will bernie but he won't be allowed to win the primaries. Way too far left.

    Either of those two,is going to be an utter train wreck for the Dems.Bernies support base is millenials who have zero clue about Socialism in any shape or form,and creepy Joe is getting to make Ronnie Regan look like a hale& hearty mental genius with some of his ramblings.Taking Killary on as VP...Kinda gambling with your life there Joe...You could end up being the 1st US president who accidently suffocated themselves with a pillow or the like.:D:D
