Yeah, it shouldn't be too bad in a fight or flight scenario. The brain cuts off hearing.

:iagree:

I wouldn't bother. You only get so much hearing, and it doesn't grow back. Save it in case you have to do it for real sometime. Unless you want to borrow the .357 snubnose flamethrower and let me film the results.

Point taken. ;)

I was just trying to say that there were other things that could have been done that didn't involve using a firearm. Maybe my examples weren't the best. I suppose roll-the-windows-up would have been the best course of action.

I hope we can agree that attempting to use a gun in this situation was totally inappropriate.

At that moment. Auditory exclusion, right? It's still going to do damage, you're just concentrating on the threat.


I'm guessing Rhonney is more concerned about the fact he almost blew his junk off being a dumbass.

i've fired a DE 50 cal no hearing protection before :shakes head: :bowrofl:

yea just take your mufflers off and cruise by their house at 3 or 4 am in 1st gear and redlining it lol

Probably, it's supposedly the same as the scenario as when you're in a stand of people yelling, you'd go deaf, if you yell along with them, you won't.

Yeah, good ole Rhonney doesn't have a leg to stand on in court.

You're retarded, lol

(Actually I have too, in the desert, I'd never do it in even a mildly enclosed area) shot more .44 Magnum... That was bad enough...

yea when i did the 50 no muffs it was on a friends farm. we did this big controlled shoot with a astro van we had donated. one guy we know did like a class/live shoot on vehicle situations. also showing weak spots and strengths of different areas of the car for "informational" purposes lol

then we turned it to swiss cheese once finished :tup:

Please, please, please, do NOT be using firearms without hearing protection. Not even to fire off just one or two rounds every now and then. The damage is cumulative. You may not do much damage with one or two shots but you do some damage and the damage is permanent. There is really no need to get used to the bang of your gun. In an emergency you won't notice it. You will lose some hearing but I'm not gonna recommend stopping to put in earplugs when being attacked. ;)

OK. I'll get off my soapbox. Thanks for listening (if you still can heehee).

Details?? something tells me it will be an interesting story :tiphat:

I got kicked pretty good right in the ear in my last fight, lost the hearing for a bit (ear drum stressed) but thankfully all came back...having that underwater feeling in the ear sucks

I carry a fully loaded xd9mm subcompact at all times.

Why can I see someone doing that?

I only refrain from wearing it when hunting deer. Rabbit, I'll wear plugs, or at least one

I drive so slow it pisses people off once I get through the gates of my community. I could never be seen and someone think I am going fast even with the cat back etc on my Z. Kids play out in the streets, people are out walking and riding bicycles. No way am I going to take one of them out.

Please understand, if someone took the time to write you a note, most likely you WERE driving like an a**. Slow it down! If you were just going a little too fast they wouldn't waste their time on it.

If I'm up in a deer stand, no reason not to put in plugs. Quail I only wear one. There's way too many rattlesnakes in the brush you're running through to be completely deaf.

yea when i'm deer hunting i dont wear any. i only need one shot with the .308 :tiphat:

I carry a loaded potatoe gun.

Absolutely. :tiphat:

i like how a thread about a guy who plexico burress'd himself turned into a gun chat thread haha awesome :tup:

It is pretty cool, I agree.

Well, until someone outs this guy as a member here, or he comes in to try and defend himself, we don't have much else to do. It's not like we've got somebody arguing he was justified in his response.

yea i agree. we do have his name lol

like i said when people gave me trouble about my driving and it wasnt just i just drive past their house in a low gear at high revs. my exhaust is so loud too so i feel i delivered revenge for their idiocy lol

i got a decibel reader app on my phone with 110 as its max and i maxed it out before i even got close to redline lol i was around 90db at idle....inside my car :bowrofl:

I had a set of Norton Sonic Ear Valves that worked great for me. Very little attenuation at normal sound levels but they close off when hit with an impulse. They lasted about 10 years. On the range, you could leave them in for normal conversation but they would kick in when a shot was fired. Still needed muffs for full protection with big guns but seemed to work well when used alone with .22s.

I've been shooting air rifles indoors lately and haven't replaced the NSEVs. If anyone sees a deal on them (or equiv), let me know.

is it weird that i keep checking everyone's profile who's viewing this (besides people i know) to see if the person who shot themselves is on here reading this :tup:

Oh, I hope he ends up in here. It'll make the Shane E90 gangrape look like a pillow fight.

Makes me want to be even less associated with 370z community

Much like the Z community wants to be rid of you. Begone, troll.

Is this the guy who more or less hates Nissan?

Yeah, every post is some flavor of "Nissan sucks." He's been banned for it once, but it was unfortunately only temporary.

I'm pretty sure you were that kid in school

Which one, the one who had to wear a helmet at all times?

Just when i thought this thread was dying because the shooter hasn't surfaced as a member. Now the trolling begins.

man my meeting ended just in time to come back for the self-plexico-ing turned gun talk turned butthole flaming to begin.

so excited :excited:

Why bother coming back if you truly feel this way? I know you don't want to admit it but I think very deep inside you love us very much :tup:

Maybe we can put JungleZ and Rhonney Jacobs in the same Z. Maybe they could take turns shooting each other.

We asked him this every time he posted. Then I just ignored him.

Now I reported him. Tired of it.

lol I see. He is consistent. I'll give him that.

Some people are into the punishment thing.

it was plaxico
