Atheist joke (page 3)

Little Drummer Boy

You guys just made me want to get out my reproduction Colt Walker and put a few balls through it.

Behold the first production .44 magnum revolver. I can (and have) put anything up to 60 grains of triple f black in it.

BOOM!

Your still alive ! Black powder revolvers are notorius for hurting the operator and they are soooo metal

Considering that 60 grains of triple f is a small carbine rifle load, it is impressive to do that in a pistol. Ofcourse the gun weighs 4.5 Lbs, so recoil is manageable. I do it one handed pretty easy. My wife has shot it with 30 gr. two handed and did well.

And you are right that bp pistols can be dangerous. I saw a pic once of a guy who pressed on a cap with his fingers but it detonated when he pressed it on the nipple, and the main charge ignited and blew back through the nipple...it literally took 1/2 the end of his thumb off. Always use a capper to put the caps on a bp gun.

And Colt didn't make the Walker for long. They produced the Dragoon models next which held 3/4 the powder...guess guys didn't like having the cylinder come apart in their face...

But my reproduction is made out of modern steel and it is very safe with 60 gr. I just don't usually put that much in because it will eventualy compress the cylinder pin wedge with the much ooompf.

I have never chrono'd the beast ('cause I don't have a chrono), but IIRC it will do about 1400fps with a full load. I don't have grain weight on the balls so I can't figure ftlbs anyway. They are Hornady .454 (shaving off about .002 when seated) for a final diameter of maybe .452. (if anybody is science geek enough to figure out what a .452 pure lead ball would weigh in grains Avoudupois, that would impress me).

Laters!

Safe shootin' everybody!

A real Atheist would yell "OH MY SCIENCE!"

Yeah, I know.... This is posted under "Humor", and it's very funny.... Buuuuut....

A real atheist would have been innately aware of the laws of survival - "Survival of the Fittest", if you will, and would have carried a:

gun? Maybe, but takes too long to draw, release safety, aim and fire...

a can of bear spray (pretty much the same protests as with the gun - I've carried the stuff and consider it unreliable)...

a hatchet (have carried that; heavy, but instantaneously effective and immediately useful - actually used it to scare off a cougar one time)...

or a long, sharp ski pole or spear which works really well; my dog and I ran into THREE [3!!!] bears at ONE TIME hiking near Boulder, Colorado; the three bears gave me, my dog, and my rapidly-swinging ski pole one disgusted look and faded into the brush. We could hear them crashing downhill for about fifteen minutes afterwards...

I vote for ski pole/spear/lance and a Bowie/hunting knife; quickly pulled/available, no need to cock/release safety, has OBVIOUS potential to cause harm that animal can see IMMEDIATELY, and less likely to take YOU down by mistake (guns misfire much more often than spears/knives/hatchets/ski poles...).

Besides, ski poles/lances/spears can be used to beat the grass ahead of you along the trail to screen for rattlesnakes... And I HAVE run into more rattlesnakes than bears when hiking... They also work really, really well on those blasted mountain-bikers ramming down the mountainside at 90 miles per hour without looking further than 3-10 feet ahead on the trail... Works REALLY well on those brain-dead rolling accidents-waiting-to-happen!!!

You can also use ski pole/spear/lance to brace yourself while hopping rocks across a stream...

Also works on domestic dogs/pit bulls that happen to try to attack me or my dog - you can put a ski pole right thru something just like a foil/saber/sword, and if you HAVE to, you can brace the butt of the pole against the ground and let the animal 'run' onto it...

Here's another version (not nearly as funny, but more truthful):

.... At that instant the Christian cried out, "Oh my God!"

Time stopped.
The bear froze.
The forest was silent.

As a bright light shone upon the man, a voice came out of the sky. "You've believed in my existence for all these years, teach others about me, and even credit creation to the 'poof-earth theory'? Do you expect me to help you out of this predicament because you are a believer"?

The Christian looked directly into the light, "That would be nice."

"The sun shines on the good as well as the evil," said the voice. "Tough luck."

The light went out. The sounds of the forest resumed. And the bear dropped his right paw, brought both paws together, bowed his head & spoke:

"Survival of the fittest. Time to eat."

LOLOL! Thanks Parakeet! Good one! I was just piddling around in an old topic and, as usual, wandered off-topic. I didn't think anyone would notice... Guess I should just start a thread titled: Hiking and Trail Safety in the Physical Activities section and get it out of my system... Zid

Might as well keep the thread derailment rolling. It's never the wrong time for a gun thread.

I've got a Ruger Super Blackhawk in 44 Magnum.

Bear repellent.

What does an Agnostic, Dyslexic with Insomnia do?

He lays awake at night and wonders if there is a Dog.
