    I am surprised no one has said C-4 yet.




    What an absolute classic.

    I feel compelled to mention that someone on Twitter said that Bill Murray walked up to him sitting in a Wendy's, took one of his french fries, dipped it in his drink, ate it, and whispered "No one will believe you." IIRC, Bill Murray commented on that tweet too, making it even funnier.

    When I take the boys, I have one carrying a .22 for the squirrels trying hide and are sitting still and the other one carry’s a .410 for the ones on the move.

    I have shot many with a 20 ga while bird hinting and don’t typically have to hard of a time with lead shot.
    Need an over/under with .22 on top and a .410 on the bottom!

    Do/ did people hunt with wrist rockets ? Of course . But to harvest small game in pure survival situiation , snares and traps would be more effective .

    When I lived in FL, I used my air rifle. Gamo, >900 FPS, w/scope. Worked fine, minimal report, clean kills, clean meat.

    Not a legal device for small game. Per page 54 of hunting guide. Would work for SHTF survival though.

    I keep forgetting MD is dumb. Alaska was better.

    Yes, as a kid I would put food on the table with a wrist rocket, especially if whomever had the .22 would miss with the 'one round per critter' rule we had. Killed rabbits and smaller with no issues. And yes, the ones you can pull realllllly far back.
