Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Thanks for posting. That was a hoot. I was really hoping he would take off his shirt in the end so we could see his shoulder bruising. There is nothing as entertaining as Blowing Stuff Up with a large caliber weapon.

Remember, it's not how many guns you have. It's how many bullets you have.

having fired hundreds of rounds through our CCH 45-70, I know what firing one feels like .... it would be interesting to see how effective the recoil suppression built into the one in the video is in the real world
