Dougy Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 Don't believe a word of it, apart from the bloke getting shot in the leg by by his own loaded shot gun. The dog probably had more sense and stood at the blunt end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As i said the dog's got more sense, looks like they were playing silly Bs and the chaps come off worst. They then get together to come up with a story and blame Rover.

Its one of the reasons the Americans favour pumps so much. They can be carried around with an empty chamber day to day in a truck or a boat but racked and they are loaded ready to fire in a moment should a shot present itself. Then once fired they can be put down and the dog can climb all over them safely till you rack them again. Same with lever action rifles Edited July 22, 2019 by Vince Green Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same with lever action rifles Why don't they design a trigger guard that dog's can't get their paws into. They could use 20 shot autos then without any problems. Mmmm I may look into that, pawproof triggers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
