    You have two of them??????? A new thread with photos is absolutely required within 24 hours of those arriving at Casa Dagga. Meanwhile the rest of us will practice letting the hate flow through us.

    I did the same thing, on two occasions, with motorcycles that had to slow down because of the good old Highway Department blocking the road. Bump that rear tire with a solid fender, and wonder of wonders, its the Flying Walendas revisited.

    Ya know, we had fun back in the day, because we could DO that sort of thing to deserving miscreants and not get fired/jailed. These poor youngsters of today simply have no idea what they are missing.

    That's true, but in many cases, we can't to things today because of stuff you guys did. Generally, not specifically you. My first job banned pitting because a hwy guy pitted a car at 80 mph on a highway with solid walls. As you may recall, pitting is not recommended or taught at that speed. The car bounced off both walls a few times and killed the driver.

    That's finesse right there.

    Why not both?

    Fits right in with the fact that firearms have been regulated in Germany to the point that they are basically only for the wealthy.
    Older Ratzeburg Korth revolvers had a .355" bore. Not sure about the Lollar production. And Germany is tied with Iceland for #15 among the nations with the highest gun ownership.

    Yeah, I recall. I also recall that choke holds aren't taught either... and its still the best way (aside from shooting him in the fucking head... several times) to take down a zoned-out crackhead who is about to whip three cop's asses, very badly, unless he is taken down NOW.

    I have pitted two vehicles; both at high speeds. One killed the driver. I did what I did because, otherwise, citizen lives were about to be endangered by these assholes. So please don't... shit, never mind. I'm done here.

    All in how you write it....which is half the problem. "pitting" is very different than legal intervention which was use of lethal force, and needed to get written and justified as a lethal force usage. We actually saved many citizens lives with proper use of legal intervention. The key....write it like you shot them.

    Kind of like choke holds versus carotid. Carotid is the best non lethal force tool we have....and guys not getting to use because of people not prosper.y writing cases and documenting force.
    Just a Hairy Special Snowflake supply clerk with no field experience, shooting an Asymetric carbine as a Try Hard. Snarky and easily butt hurt. Favorite animal is the Cape Buffalo....likely indicative of a personality disorder.
