It left a mark

[LI0NSFAN]

I was shooting a Nagant I picked up from a member here. I got all set up and just as I was about to pull the trigger a bee landed on me.
I am deathly allergic to bees, so I flinched and pulled the trigger. It hit my bicep and my first thought was "that's going to leave a mark" and I was right.

Did you shoot the bee?

[enfield]

Yup, that's the important thing - did you get the bee?  Did he have a nice rack on him?

I doubt it would have had a good rack, they would have been "bee" cups.

Hahaha! 

 

We had a TGO range day a few years ago, and I can't remember who it was, but someone was shooting my M44 carbine and the recoil literally cracked his tooth and knocked a filling loose!  They kick like mules, but I love 'em!  Glad the gun stung you and not the bee!

HOLY S#*T!

[Rightwinger]

Dayyyyummm!

 

I think the Bee pushed as well.

[LI0NSFAN]

I still hit the target on that shot and the guy I was shooting with got the bee so it was not all bad. It does not hurt which is suprising.

[KahrMan]

Now thats what I call a bruise.

[NoBanStan]

lol, with a mosin, this isn't that surpising!

[rugerla1]

Wowwww! Bet that sucker is still sore huh?
P.S. Glad the bee died!! :)

I have a 91/30 and a m44. ouch but straight shooters. JMO

[LI0NSFAN]

It was the 91/30 that did it. I am still surprised how little it hurts. It goes just below my shirt sleeve so I have been asked by several people if I got a tattoo. Then when I say no and show it to them they say they have not seen that color purple in a bruise before.

I'm not ashamed to say that I put a wussy nancy pad on my 91/30.

I have had nancy pads on several of my bigger cal guns but never really liked them. I think it puts most guns on the edge of my LOP. I could never get the guns to fit me as comfortably as with out the pad. I shot 100 rounds out of it that day, 99 no soreness or marks and 1 that left the bruise. I guess next time stop at 99, lol

[Murgatroy]

Reminds me of the bruise I got when I thought it would be funny to let off both barrels at once on my coach gun when I was kid.

 

Stupid hurts.

 

Glad you didn't get stung.

[frankmako]

looking at your picture has made my arm hurt. 

[ironsniper1]

Is it bad that when I see his bruise it makes me more excited to want to shoot my mosin!

[rugerla1]

Nope, can't be bad, cause it makes me want to get one! :)

[Fourtyfive]

Wow!

[Dustbuster]

So that's why the 7mm ammo has good shelf time as in selling slowly. Not enough end beat up arms coming back for more lol

[DaveS]

Dang man!!!

[vontar]

I don't think I have ever been brused anywhere near that by shooting before. 

 

So, is there a reward for that bee?
