Was having a cup of hot brown and a burger at a hay bale clay shoot not far from me when a pellet smacked me in the cheek. I presume it rebounded from the wooden target frame the air rifle lads were shooting at. I quickly put my specks back on and finished up.

 

It hurt more than I let on but I didn't want to be a big girl.

A couple fo times.

 

As a kid I was shooting at cans I'd set up on the Garden path. Using the shed door as a sort of a backstop. I think the .22 pellet hit a screw or something in the door, came humming back and hit me just beneath the right eye, I had a wicked shiner and still have a scar.

 

When I was about 23 I was working as a doorman at a scuzzy local dive and someone pulled out the most pathetic looking firearm I've ever seen, I assumed it was an airgun, I was wearing sap gloves and decided to just wrench it out of his hand. It went off with a bang, shot straight through the glove of course and left a neat channel down the bottom of my index finger (I was lucky not to get my thumb shot off).
