Semi-retired like Vito Corleone before the heart attack. Consiglieri to J.Kb and AWA. I lived in a Gun Control Paradise: It sucked and got people killed. I do believe that Freedom scares the political elites.

  1. There is an urban legend about a guy that replaced a fuse in his pick up with a .22LR and gave himself a vasectomy. True? Maybe. Funny? Definitely.

    1. I have popped a few .22s myself, and the story is impossible as told. With nothing to contain the pressure the cartridge will be nothing more than a firecracker. It is possible that the case could damage your eye, or give you a light bruise on skin, but it will be largely harmless. (since the case is lighter than the bullet the case will get the velocity, if only by a bit).

  2. Back when cars had glass fuses, I used the foil off of my cigarette pack more than once to get things going. You can’t do that with the new mini-fuses. That’s why I always keep a short piece of wire handy.

    I was a master technician for Ford, I specialized in A/C and electrical. I, of all people should know better.The story about the 22 shell has been floating around for years. I doubt it’s true, but it is a funny story.
