unbelievable

Posts that don't fit into any other category. If it's anything to do with guns, it probably doesn't belong here!

@Grewal -- Phew!! What a find. I would hope I "never, ever" see something like this again, but I know, it would be the other way.
For the other instances quoted -- all I can say -- this is the "ruthless" instinct that keeps propping up in man.

I am reminded of one of my friends narrating such an incident in Ghaziabad, UP. It is a common practice to fire the DBBL guns there, it seems.
Be it rural, urban, educated, illiterate, rich, poor -- whatever. And we call ourselves "civilized".

can't understand -- yes, I too can't. Self protection? I thought the others must worry about it, not the one who's holding it here in the video clip :lol:

that may be not much intellectual, but serve the purpose and send clear message.one case was reported by Americans collecting weapons from populating in Afghanistan, they took AK from on young boy and the boy said, if I will come home without gun my wife will left me. How can I protect her without gun.

Primitive behavior, this is a classical case of primitive instinct where a supremacy of tribe is shown by the amount of spears stones it posses,
No doubt about it but shouldn't the people should be provided an outlet for this primitive behavior? Like plenty of shooting ranges where they can regularly vent out their primitive behavior in a safe manner!

@GBM,
Now, that makes good sense. Providing a control outlet for such instincts. Thankfully, this primitive instinct can have a vent, like a few other ones, in a "safe" way. At the same time, "people" must also be educated. Not all such instincts can have a vent :D and not all should, as well (only IMHO).

They are fun to shoot.
What is the point of any gun in any configuration or caliber?
I have a Vz 58 . Completely reliable and great fun.

Did they even realize that apart from owning PB firearms as per Indian Arms Act, they just finished their annual quota of ammunition as granted by the authorities in India? :twisted:

this is plainly for sure as all members will be knowing you can get lic for an ak as easyily for a npb in india or more easily.once the russians commented there is no need to fight in afganistan just leave the weapons behind that will keep them busy.

Let our Hon'ble Home Minister be invited as a guest to one of these weddings partys, probably he will faint.
