Into a tree trimmer! Video to follow I hope.
Every summer we go on vacation to the family cabin in WV. Well the trees needed trimmed so we could put in DirecTV and one of the limbs that needed downed was 8-10 inches in diameter. The rest of the family started wailing on it with some AR-15s and .22s while I quietly loaded up 5 slugs into my factory mag.
My uncle was the first to notice me setting up and was like "wtf is that?" "Oh, it's Matilda," I replied. He still looked confused, so I continued, "it's an AK-47 chambered in 12ga." *evil grin*
The deck full of people got real quiet and watched me not thinking I'd hit it at 50 yards. Well, Chad makes one helluva gun. My first slug hit exactly where they wanted the limb cut so I called that one the target and proceeded to put the rest of my magazine into a group maybe bigger than a clay pigeon? All of the bark splots overlapped and chunks of oak flew out of the back. I set down the shotgun so that everyone else could play with the ARs and .22s. Tree trimming is a time honored tradition in our family and I didn't want to spoil it.
Another uncle asked me what the gun was and I explained. I loaded three slugs into the box mag and gave him a quick lesson. He lined up, everyone else watched and his first slug hit right where he was aiming. More wood flew and was met with more laughter. Then my uncle put another slug into it and it snapped off dropping a 20 foot long, 8-10" thick limb into the river.
Supposedly, it's all on tape and should play out like that. Then I loaded the 20 round drum with bird shot and cleared leaves out of the way. Guns are so damn useful
