marbles?

Post by gypsydan41 »

The other day I was sitting on the porch shooting my wristrocket and looked down at a standard cat's eye marble and just wondered,umm. So I tried it out on an old horseshoe pit backstop, it put a perfect size hole in it no bigger than a marble. I would not recomend putting out of any barrel that was not open cyl. though, in fear of a smaller choke wedging it in the barrel! But I was curious if anyone has ever tried it or even considered it?

I live in the desert and it can be very boring sometimes so I just come up with things and either build it or shoot it! The marbles will trash a rabbit and gophers, it's funny!! :twisted:

I was at a buddies gun shop when a guy brings in a shotgun to have an obstruction removed from mid way down the barrel . Seems someone had died and he got the gun . He tried the shell that was with the gun. My buddy knocked out a handful of finishing nails .

Yeesh. What did the barrel look like once the nails were knocked out?
