Well, we have confirmation that it can happen with the body of a 4 year old. Anymore reports from 150lb+ persons? I actually meant to list people above.... not sure why I didn't. The story you linked does not confirm it ever happening. For all we know, the over penetrating could be from a FMJ riffle round through drywall or a car door. Or a FMJ handgun round ricocheting off of an exposed ceiling support\pipe.

Well, not really. It defines over penetration as a bullet that travels through obstacles (walls, doors, etc.) as well as ricochets. And this is the reason why you shouldn't fire when you have friendlies downrange.

A few posts in another thread spawned this... Has there ever been a case where a bullet has over penetrated (reads; gone completely through someone) and struck another? I'm looking for real world proof of over penetration from a handgun. The scenarios that are always used: 1) You shoot someone in a parking lot. The bullet "over penetrates" and hits a bystander on the other side of the parking lot. 2) You shoot someone in your home. The bullet "over penetrates", goes through a wall and hits someone. 3) You shoot someone and the bullet "over penetrates" and hits someone standing right behind the attacker. Logic: 1) How is a bullet going to retain enough velocity, after going through several inches of flesh and bone, and continue with enough force to travel that amount of distance? 2) How is a bullet going to retain enough velocity, after going through several inches of flesh and bone, a few layers of drywall and 2x4s, and continue with enough force to hit someone? 3) Why the hell are you shooting at someone with a loved one standing so close? I'm inclined to believe that "over penetration" is nothing more then a myth until proven otherwise. And even then, the chances of it actually happening is going to be less then your chances of being struck by lightening while sitting on the toilet. So why is this always brought up and discussed as an important issue to consider when choosing carry rounds and handguns?

That was a shortage caused by demand. A shortage caused by production lows within one company will only loose that company money.

I bought a loaf of bread for 2.99 today. That's an .80 discount! Success!

No problem with FF here but it will not work on mobile (Opera).

No way in hell would I sit in traffic for hours to save a few bucks! Going to stay clear of retail places for the next 4 weeks.

So, let me get this straight. You broke the law and are complaining about having to pay for it? How about blaming yourself for putting a wrong tag on another car instead of blaming the court for making you pay for it. And while we're at it, let's blame criminals for committing crimes instead of blaming it on some DA. As far as your "examples" above; you do realize that breaking into a building is a crime, right? It is a crime that will cost the victim time and money to fix. If a kid\young adult breaks into my home, he's going to be shot. I don't give a damn if his intentions are to rob me or to pull a prank on me. His actions are criminal and they put me in danger. From one of your links: In todays times, this is a very valid fear. This kid broke into a building, caused damage to the building, caused police to spend time and money investigating the package, and probably scared the turds out of several parents thinking their kids are going to get blown up the next morning when news broke of a mysterious package hit the air waves. But he should just be let go because his intentions were that of a prank? Actually, you know what... I think I see your side now. I think I'll contact my Rep Monday morning and bring this to his attention. I'm going to ask him to draft a bill which makes a "prank" exception to all crimes. If someone robs a convenience store as a prank - no jail time. If someone steals a car for a joy ride - no jail time. If someone shoots and kills someone and they say it was just a prank to scare them - no jail time.

Wyatt, in your parents' day, you could not only get away with a DUI but the officers would follow you home to make sure you made it in one piece. In your parents' day, a bunch of kids out drinking at the drive-in or the pool hall were left to be. "Harmless fun" they called it. In your parents' day, drag racing on "the strip" was totally acceptable. In your parents' day, children did not shoot up schools and there was no fear of terrorist attacks at our schools. In your parents' day, people left their doors open at night. In your parents', parents' day, it was ok to attack blacks for drinking out of the wrong water fountain. Are these examples directly related to a bunch of DAs looking for a bigger spread sheet? My 3 year old niece fully understands that if she throws a toy in my living room that she'll get her butt spanked. Criminals -young and old alike- fully understand the consequences of their actions.... but being criminals and all, they simply do not care.

You were gone?

How many friends do you have that are criminals? His latest complaint from today: http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/buyer-seller-feedback/65424-incomplete-transaction-wizzard-640-a.html

Toad turds. We're not talking about 12 year olds here. We're talking about young adults. The reason we call them "young adults" is because they're young adults. I think most of us here have done stupid things in our younger days, but the thing that kept us from going from stupid to felonious are the consequences. You assault a cop, rape a girl, sell crack or rob a bank, you know what you're doing and what the consequences are. Doesn't matter if you're 17 or 70. No one is sitting in jail on a felony fr a "bag of pot" and there are no teens on the sex offender list that had sex with his GF. Least not in TN. That said, I too would like to see a tiered time on some felonies. People do change and should deserve a second chance.

Have turkey in the smoker now. Getting Wild Turkey out of freezer now. May need more Turkey by Thursday

Well, I guess if you believe that then it must be true. "Your honor, I promise I was shooting at OS in his apartment for the sport of it!" "People do that all the time... see the knots in his noggin for proof of others shooting at him for sport"

Testimonials?Ask pawn shop, jewelry store and convenience store employees... Where does it say that? "Carrying" is what, having a loaded firearm on your person? You mean, I can not handle a loaded firearm in your apartment, a gun range or a friends private land with their permissions? Sheesh... must be a lot of folks being arrested for carrying at gun ranges, eh...

Did you take your alzheimers meds?...

I spent way too much time on this!

I'm proud to say that I know someone that has a homemade "car lift" like the one pictured. It's perfectly safe... And the motorcycle doughnut in living room pic makes me jealous! I want that in my living room! That reminds me of that scene in that Cheech and Chong movie

OS, there are lots of people that carry at their work, with permission from owner, that do not have permits. You really think all those pawn shop, jewelry store and convenience store employees have permits? You think that's a requirement for employment at these places? Owner says, "I will give you a job but you can not start until you receive your permit, which will probably be another month or so". I think you're the only person I've come across that's debated the language here. Edit, A persons' "place of business", even for "free lancers", is going to be the address listed on their business license, tax number, etc. If they don't make enough monies to have to have one of these, then I doubt they'll make enough money to have employees, either, which makes that a moot point...

Are you complaining about someone complaining about your complaining? I think you just answered your own question

I wonder if "her" ass exploded when the real doctors opened "her" butt up to repair it (shop guys will get that)

Gotta go, gotta go, gotta go RIGHT NOW!
