High Speed Photography

Hey all!

I decided to play with high speed photography tonight...And with my Tokarev. So why not combine the two? Off to the range!

Here's some pics taken within one second, showing the result of a hit from 7.62x25mm on a 2 litre bottle full of water.

The bottle exhibits a clean hole on entry and a slit on exit where pressure cracked the bottle in a straight, clean seam.

That means the military 85 grain steel cased ball does not expand, nor dump energy into the target the way a deadlier hollow point will.

But look at that spray! And in the last picture, you can see how much water is "bleeding" out of the bottle as it falls, becaus of gravity alone.

Nope, the pistol round of a Russian soldier in the "Great Patriotic War" wasn't as deadly as the hollow point, larger caliber rounds our police and we as civilians use today...But nothing to laugh at! And that's from a pistol, not an SMG. If Fritz caught that round in major blood vessels, he was down for the count. A well aimed shot would be all she wrote. Chalk one up for the Motherland.

CTV's Paula Todd: Gun owner "Freakish"

Hey all.

Does anyone else here remember Wayne Chiang? Simply because he had posted pictures of himself with firearms, he was mistaken for being the Virginia Tech shooter.

Well, Wayne was invited to do a CTV interview to speak about Virginia Tech...Instead, he was ambushed on air and insulted off air.

Here is what Wayne has to say about the affair...


"Hey all, thanks for all the support! It means so much to me. The interview with Paula Todd was aired live on Wednesday April 18, 2007. I was supposed to talk about my experience at Virginia Tech, but ultimately ended up blindly walking into a firearms debate/ambush. That's why I look so retarded answering the questions.

The second video with the comments were off-air. CTV was nice enough to send me a copy of the interview and someone let the off-air portions slip through. After watching all the off-air parts, it was interesting to see how she personally greeted all her guests, except for me. She talks to at least seven other people and tells them the topic of discussion before hand. For me, I just ended up on camera talking at a wall to someone I couldn't see or ever heard of before. I suppose this must be the new tactic these news networks use...

The other piece of infamy is the picture mixup debacle. This one is just absurd and needs no explanation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQtdxPl4Ew8"


Hmmm....wait...since I posted this one...something new has developed...

Wayne received this...

Oh.

Okay.

So it's all well and good for terrorists like Hamas and Hezbollah to post their propaganda which actually recruits children to be suicide bombers...But we can't have Wayne posting HIS CTV video! That's crazy talk!
