OH FU@#%@+&K
Well, I finally did it. Shooting from inside the house, and forgetting to OPEN the WINDOW. I did this yesterday. I did my best to hide it from my girlfreind, (we live together, but it’s her house) by keeping the blinds semi closed, effectively hiding it. Putting a hole in the window in itself is a bad thing, but it also gives away the fact that I’m shooting from inside the house, something I do to get more yardage in, and to hide the big bangs from shooting my un shrouded Talondor .25.
I do not want her to know I do this. How do I explain a hole in the bedroom window when she thinks I only shoot from outside on the patio?
Anyways, to my horror, this morning she decided to open the blinds to let some sun in. I was just ready to blurt out some goofy excuse with a apology, when she just turned around, and got ready for work. This hole was 12″ from her face… and she missed it!!
I just found a glass place 1/2 mile from me that will replace it for 14.95, not bad at all, and will be perfect looking before she gets back from work. 😛 😛 😛

Saugus…. your story made my day. I have not laughed at you my friend, but with you. Absolutely priceless. I love a good story like that, and that you shared it with the boyz in The Asylum.

Hmmm . . . hope you got safety glass.
No need to feel that way, sometimes threads go in all different directions, kinda the way it is around here. It’s alot looser here than many other forums out there for the most part. 🙂
Yeah. I didn’t think. but your right. It’s a lot like a bunch of old friends talking over a couple of cold beers! It’s all good!

Dude! You’d better get the glass cleaner out and be busy “cleaning” the windows or your ass will be busted!!! 😯 😆 😆
I blamed it on the cat…..Dam cat jumped in my lap while I was shooting inside,across the chroni last winter…Made a 4ft X 8ft hole in the front sliding door,hard to believe it started out as a .177 hole…..Cost $1100
to replace….Dam Cat…

Think she’ll notice how clean it looks????
Hmmmm just tell her it was needing cleaned and you did it, just for her ;):P
That’s a call I hope I never have to make. 😯
Just don’t wake up in the morning and forget that you left your air-gun cocked and loaded on the kitchen table the night before. (like I did) 😳
Jeezus, that was a learning experience for me, and a close call. End of day, I’m glad I shot the doorwall… if I had the gun pointed a foot or two lower, I would’ve shot my dog, and that would’ve been a life-bending moment.
Be careful out there, ya fokkers! 😉
That’s a call I hope I never have to make. 😯
allmost been there….shot a hole in a 4×4′ window blamed it on drunk students at the dorm throwing bottles 😉
then girlfriend and i bought i house….saw a big ass crow out the bedroom door…opened the window a bit…..shot into the sill with 50 fpe and kodiak, it plowed a nice trench through the sill 🙄
i would get the lawnmover out….and cut the lawn ans say the lawn mover must have thrown a rock….and of course try and make the hole less like a projectile passed through 8)
im lucky my girlfriend 1.0 got upgraded to wife 1.0, after alot of surprices and patches she dont have much to say when i shoot indoors, if she see’s a squirrel she will tell me and hold the camcorder 😀 when she comes home on a wednesday and im drunk as a skunk from a bit of online Gaming&Drinking she justs asks if im hungry LOL
Better go shoot a bird, and squeeze some poop on the windowsill.
Tell her you had to clean the window of poop, but must have missed the sill.
LOL

LOL Hilarious… welcome to the club!
But give me a call when you shoot a double-paned door wall and the glass explodes into a million pieces…. top to bottom, side to side.
That was a Saturday morning I’ll never forget. 😆
I put a red piece of tape on new window, right where the old hole was, this way I’ll see it right away thru the scope if I should ever forget to close it again, which I doubt, but then another thought came to mind.
Let’s pretend Voltar IS right, she saw the hole earlier today, and decided to wait to see what I would say or do about it. She will come home from work, to see this tape on the window… she will immediatley think… “What a A-hole.. he puts a hole in the window, and this is his fix? A effing piece of tape over the effing hole?!?!”
I’ll watch her go to the window, to pull off the tape to give me hell….. NO HOLE!!! She’ll think she lost her freakin mind!!! Voltar, I hope you are right, this I gotta see!
