You should always test your flare gun before using it in an emergency.

I just sent this to a buddy of mine in Texas...

We used to have Roman Candle battles for new years eve before setting off the big stuff at midnight. 
Yes... much alcohol was involved.  It's a wonder I still have eyebrows!   2funny

I too enjoyed such non-sense in my youth. Next to shooting bottle rockets at each other.  cooldude

in high school my older brother and his friend went small game hunting.  His friend used like 7 or 8 shot and fired a shot at my brother in the back from say 40 yards away walking away from him.  STUNG like heck he said in his back, and was NOT planned did it as a joke.  Needless to say he never went hunting with his EX friend EVER again.   He had small bruises/pelts in his back that went thru the clothing just barely in some small spots just stung pretty much is all though.  Could have been much worse if the aim was higher and my brother turned around at the last minute loosing an eye or something.  young and dumb!

That is why I bought one for traveling.  Haven't had a chance yet to road test it.  Thanks for the video, I now know that they work.  I'm surprised [and pleased] how accurate it is.

I probably should have also mentioned that I thought the video was funny, its amazing how many dumb asses there are out there.

I did get hit in the chest with a bottle rocket [ mistakenly] years ago. It ricocheted off me and went thru a patio screen and raised hell inside the patio. It picked up the pace of that party.  Grin

What is wrong with people???  The scary part to all of this is, people like this walk among us and we don't know it.

I would think that's probably NOT the correct way to test it. uglystupid2 uglystupid2

But, stupid is, what stupid does. crazy2

He thinks that hurts now, wait till he get into his late 40's, that crap will come back to haunt him.

Wait, he's not going to make late 40's, I'll bet.

And that is why products have those seemingly stupid warning labels on them.

I'm getting fed up with this on firearms.  Read manual before firing.  Revolver locks.

And now this.  Magazine disconnects were always the exception (usually requested for police and military) not the rule (my Hi Powers have them removed, by me).  These are expensive items to buy, and I don't want one with idiot warnings.   This is enough for me not to buy one at all.



Next they'll print...... Warning, capable of being fired by insane people.

Alcohol and age have nothing to do with this.  These are dumb ass  inbred porch monkies with, at best, double digit IQs.  Some people just do not have any critical thinking skills and belong on an island - away from humanity.
