shootin 5 ft away isnt a real test...should have shot from 10-20 yards...think there would have been a big difference in penetration and accuracy...

     I used to watch them, but then I started noticing a lot of flaws, and mistakes, that were later called confirm, busted, etc.  They had a fast draw guy to demonstrate that one of the tales of the old west about a guy who could draw and hit four or five coins, before they hit the ground, when dropped from the back of his hand.  Anyway, the fast draw guy could only do a couple of shots in the time it took for a coin to hit the ground. So they confirmed the story was a myth, and busted.  "ONE" fast draw guy?  I tried to send them a letter, that it was in fact possible, since on You Tube, there was a guy who just set a record, buy drawing, and hitting five balloons, under a second.  But you can't e-mail them.  >:(
You have no recourse in disputing their supposedly confirmed, or busted facts.  So I always just take it as so many grains of salt, and wait for the explosions. ;)  But the Red head is an attractant, ::) even if she is a Vegitarian...... :P :o
