[QUOTE="svtfocus2cobra, post: 16573657, member: 21786"] Well I have one for you that is petty to the max and sorry for the long story. Reading this thread just reminded me of an incident a couple years back when a group of us were shooting on my friend's range at his own home way out in the sticks. It was all legal yet his junky neighbor got irritated and decided to shoot in our direction. He was about 50 yards away on his property and while the shooting from our group was going on I was standing towards the back of the range when I saw a flash from my peripherals on the right and heard a distinct loud bang from my Walker hearing protection (electronically cancels out the loud crack of the gunfire but amplifies all other noise) that was coming from another source and I immediately recognized what it was and so I moved quickly towards the corner of the house to take some cover and peak the corner for a better look to see who it was, and as I was moving for cover another shot came past my direction and I could tell that it was a shotgun blast. At first I thought someone had come up his driveway and was attempting to attack us so I was scanning the area for threats, but once I took the barricade on the corner of the house I could see the neighbor in the tree line that divided the properties and he was standing by his truck with the headlights pointed in our direction. We were protected by the house from where we were shooting but anyone standing further back from the range like I was could have easily been in harms way and hit. As I was on the corner I attempted to get sighted in on the guy which was hard because it was getting dark out in a heavily wooded area plus with the headlights all I could see really was part of a silhouette. At that point everyone looked back and saw me and put two and two together since they had heard the shots too, but didn't think anyone would be shooting specifically at us since the neighbors all shot often as well on their own ranges. Things got a little intense after that because about 5 of us with rifles all kitted out had guns raised at the ready and we were moving towards this guy and commanding him to drop the gun. Since he had moved back behind the truck last I saw we didn't have full sight of him due to the headlights shining back. I just knew that if I saw anything resembling a person with a gun that they was going to die or if that truck started backing up to leave then I was going to light up the front of the truck. He ended up running off before we got close enough, but it turned out that he wasn't the neighbor that owned the property but rather he was one of the neighbor's tweaker friends who stayed with him sometimes and was tweaking at the time.
