Unless they are incredibly weak they really shouldn't. I have one that I shoot all the time and people are intimidated by it. When they actually shoot it almost always the first thing they say is "wow that doesn't kick as bad as I thought."

I'm pretty sure this is GunDrummer from YouTube. He pretty much always shoots at that range so I'm guessing it's indeed one of those two options.

That sounds incredibly illegal, I’m assuming you have to bring your own gun?

6

u/Obi_Wan_Gebroni 10h ago

I mean, you have to supply your own guns and ammo. They just leave the launchers and periodically restock them with more clays. It’s just some button pushing to use the course.

I’ve never actually been to this course but have some friends who have done it.

Yeah, seems like the mask and gloves are defenitly affecting his gun control. Not super dangerous, but not a safety first approach either.

7

u/skribsbb 11h ago

Lots of guns are designed to be used with gloves. He has good trigger discipline (it's hard to see because of black gloves over a black gun, but his finger is off the trigger of the .50 until he settles into a firing position). He has good muzzle discipline (always pointing downrange).

I don't see any safety issues.

2

u/Destroyer1559 11h ago edited 10h ago

How exactly? The guns were always pointed down range, or in another safe direction. I really didn't see any unsafe behavior, and I'm around guns a lot. Did you just not like firing from the hip, or a shooter wearing a costume? Neither of these actions are inherently unsafe. Both of those things can absolutely be done in a safe manner, and appear to have been.

Edit: ah, downvotes without an explanation. Unsurprising.

2

u/teh27 5h ago

Because this commenter hates guns and hates people having fun with guns. Yes it's a goofy video but there's nothing unsafe here.

3

u/CornPopThePornCop 10h ago

They can't explain it because there's nothing inherently unsafe here, like you said. Worst that happened was the muzzle blast from the .50 took out a drum and some recording equipment, which I'm assuming was somewhat disposable since he didn't even flinch.

1

u/Minimum_Apricot1223 Kanan Jarrus 8h ago

Obviously obscured vision, no target acquisition, high trajectory on multiple rounds fired (unless the berm is extremely close) and yes hip firing. You can have fun at the range but you can't be a dumb fucking ass hole about it.

1

u/Destroyer1559 3h ago

obscured vision, no target acquisition

Assumptions. They're tinted goggles, and he was perfectly able to move and handle guns without fumbling them, so I'm sure he could see well enough. He raised the Deagle to his eyeline so I'm sure he could see the sights. Plenty of people shoot with tinted sunglasses. And if you think it's shooting with a restricted FoV that's unsafe, wait until you learn about shooting under night vision.

high trajectory on multiple rounds fired (unless the berm is extremely close)

Another assumption. You don't know how close or tall the berm is, and neither do I. I shoot at a range where the berm is a hill, hundreds of feet tall, and some targets are dozens of feet up it. Again, perfectly safe.

hip firing

Again, not inherently unsafe when fired in a safe direction.

Just be honest and say you don't like guns or having fun shooting them, man.

Question for gun nerds: With massive recoil like on the .50, do they have tech that automatically "scrunches" the scope when the trigger is pulled? That seems like it would make a sniper more effective while reducing the risk of smashing one's eyesocket. I suppose that introduces the risk of injury through mechanical failure and another thing to replace/maintain so I guess maybe I answered my own question.
