JE Custom,
You'll note I do not condone his actions, I just said he has the right to do what he wants with his rifles. Also take note that I do not claim him as a friend. I did find some of the video amusing and some of it disturbing, but that pretty much sums up what I think of the man in the video as well.

I found it amusing. Who is to say he didn't check his barrel before shooting? If someone wants to have more money than sense (or maybe just less sense than money?) I don't see what's wrong with taping some comedic routine for other's amusement.

I personally have seen the results of abuse to firearms and I dont think
we should encourage this type of behavior.

I to have a very good friend who has all ways treated his rifles abusively
and I tried to scold him ever chance I had but he did'nt care, well it finally
happened ,On a hunting trip he was carrying his weatherby around with the
barrel muzzel down on the floor matt when he got to his stand he spotted
a nice buck and tried a shot. When he awoke the rifle had blown up between
the recever and left hand and sp;it in five pieces also blowing the scope off.

After looking at the remains of a once fine rifle there was mudd around the crown,
apparently he had packed mudd or a small rock in the barrel causing it to blow up.

This was my concern and as a friend you should express your concerns.

If I offended any one I'm sorry but safe practices should allways be a priority
when handling any type of firearm.

In the future I will keep my comments to my self on this type of behavior,and
by the way my friend takes much better care of his rifles now.

thanks
