Did the poor guy manage to break into your garage?

MJR Metalworks · 05-05-2006, 09:05 AM

Wow! Can we get any more details on this?

What kind of Knock Down Power did the fotay display against this individual?

On a more serious note, how many shots did it take and what model XD were you using?

Thanks,

- Mike

Rob caught Hell for killing a snake. I pitty you on this one; this group is tough. Do you have your flame-retardent underwear on?

You can't show something like this and not offer details. That is just wrong.

I'd say a alligator gun belt must at least be in order.

Isn't killin' gators illegal?
...nice shootin' there pardner!...how about some details?

Sorry it took me so long to figure out how to get the picture to work, I forgot to put the details in.

My brother and I do part time work for a trapper, so we got the call Wednesday night as this guy was playing in the road and stopping traffic, he moved out of the road but would be trying to cross it again in search of love as soon as we left it along.

So we pulled up behind the cop and that's the best how many times can you get out of the truck with xd40 strapped on and not get questioned, she just said there it is and asked what it was after the first shot, after we cut the spinal cord as these things don't die easy or quick.

So anyway the cop ,did I say cute cop were talking about my 40 we were about 6 foot in front of the gator when my brother tried to flip it to drain the blood out when he started towards us and I side stepped it and she followed the first move, then when the gator turned at me again she hit her cruiser and I shot it again.

Next time I remember to switch mags and use hard ball ammo, the hollow points worked, but I could do without the face spotted with blood from 10 foot away and ball would have better penetration.

Gators are tough and he was still kicking and trying to slap me with his tail while we were dragging him in the skinning shed to get the picture 30 minutes later.

Oh he was 10 foot long since I left that out and my XD40 is the service model and yes the meat will be sold and leather tanned and sold but all we get is 12 dollars a foot and the fun of getting it, the cute cop asking about my 40 was a bonus.
