Lucky/cool gunshot photograph

[BobTheCow]

On Saturday I ventured up to Centralia, PA with a couple friends. After exploring the chasms into hell turned out to be fairly underwhelming, we decided to just shoot stuff for a while. I happened to get an incredibly luckily timed photo of my friend, and thought a few people here might appreciate it.

The camera's nothing special, just a Cannon Powershot A70.

Hate to be the old man, but...

Eye and ear protection? Designated, and marked, shooting area?

pwn

[tbizzle0]

does he have a bayonet on that mosin? lol

[Linkwarner]

I see a range bag, and a cd. He does have eye protection, that is why Man invented eye lids, and hearing protection? He has to hear the commies coming right?

[BobTheCow]

We had ear plugs. We had a designated shooting lane with a safe back drop. Eye protection... ya got me there. I was wearing sunglasses, for what it's worth.

tbizzle0 - hahaha yep, that is a bayonet. We shot for a while first with it folded in, then with it extended to see how it changed the balance. I don't know squat about guns, so I couldn't tell you what model the thing is. I'll get back to you after I talk to my buddy.

I've always enjoyed the "boom" from a Nagant, compared to other firearms "bang".

[grEnAlEins]

That pic is sweet! :dance:

Hexis has a picture of Xenocide_X here firing a DE .50 and just a huge plume of flame off the end.
Old school with the Nagant is sweet though.

All is well then. Eye protection is always a good idea (I posted a pic a while back of an M855 penetrator whizzing back by a shooter after a richochet, but a good pair of sunglasses works pretty well).

Awsome shot. The flash coming from that muzzle looks like a cannon blast.

Like Army said, it sounds about the same, too. :p
