I use these for rural lion hunting, primer only, sort of like a catch & release hunting.

That was pretty cool but not so cool for his wall :smile:

If he is not single, he will soon be. My wife would be beyond POed.

[leeggen]

Now you know why his wife keeps his tools locked in the safe. When unlocked he just really gets out of hand. That was pretty cool though.

Ok, I have a couple of jars of earplugs, some 9mm brass and a gun. It works.

[phonejack]

I suspect I would wake up the next morning and find my wife had superglued my knees together !

[shooterg]

He's not a redneck. All us rednecks KNOW that duct tape STICKS !

[bullet maker 57]

That is something I am going to try. Not inside though.

mmmm, ive got nothing nice to say. LOL

[Finster101]

And all this time I've been shooting without nitrile gloves!

LOL you noticed that too.

[runfiverun]

put a buffer card under the plugs and you won't get the hole in them.

10 minutes of my life that I'll never get back. GW

OK this is NOT a new concept. Speer made and probably still makes plastic projectiles that could be shot with a primered brass case. I had a target setup for shooting my .44 Rem Mag Ruger in my basement. The target was a cardboard box with an inner tube cut in strips to catch the projectiles to prevent bouncing back to you. It is well known a primer has enough power to lodge a bullet in the barrel, ask me how I know (yep Rugers are well made)! However, having access to a bunch of old ear plugs, this looks like cheap fun! And I like the idea of a cardboard wafer behind the plug!

Speer also made plastic cases with plastic bullets for indoor use....propelled by a primer. The bullet trap was a throw rug hanging behind the paper target.

Lol. Gonna try this next guys night.

If you have trouble getting an earplug to stay in your ear, this may be a way to insert if more effectively. :bigsmyl2:

[runfiverun]

you'd have to squish it down and get it done pretty quickly..:lol:

I have a box full of the speer capsules for my 45 colt revolvers, I drilled the flash holes out on the cases I use with them, and keep everything together in a shoe box.

I bet my mom can get a lot madder when she catches someone having a shoot out with their little brother in her basement, than his wife can about some paint removal.
you'd think a couple of in their 40's grown men would be above getting a cuff behind the ear.
it was worth it to see little bro's wife shoot some diet coke out her nose though.

[JimB..]

Was surprised that he had no hearing protection even with just primers.

[reddog81]

Guns can shoot projectiles.... who would have guessed?

I figured "Dumb ***" would work too, but there are health issues with shooting indoors that needs to be addressed

[myg30]

A retired buddy of mine has a favorite expression,, Ya just can’t fix stupid !
And they wonder where kids get ideas from?
At least he does say a few times NOT TO TRY THIS AT HOME ! Makes me feel better cause kids will listen now.

no but it is a new way of showing kids irresponsible use of a firearm
with marginal loads

[Grmps]

If you put a backer behind the earplug, you should be prepared to get higher velocity than he did. Kind of like a gas check, limiting blow by or blow through in his case.
