Got any dumb statements by idiots?? (Muzzleloading shooting related)

that’s why reputable scientific works are peer reviewed part of which looks at observational bias and repeatability of results. Proper science begins with a question and a testable hypothesis not with and end result.

Works well when you choose those who are the reviewers. Covid reviews are a good example, just follow the money trail.

Why yes... it would also work on gold.

They already have invented it. It's called a shovel. Works on pretty much everything.

you don’t choose the reviewers. people really don’t understand how actual science works. I expect scientists don’t know how a diesel works but the they don’t come up with diesel engine conspiracy theories

I know nothing about knapping flints, but I cut, shape and smooth stone to engrave with a laser.
I can assure you, stone absorbs water, and the cutting properties, especially when using a chisel or a high speed grinder, are totally different than when dry.
And it is a really bad idea to try and laser engrave stone that you are not 100% positive has drained out.

if the stone you’re cutting with a laser is damp does it split flakes off the surface when the laser hits?

I wouldn't bet my life on it. The actual scientist might not have much input as to who reviews the theory, but influences connected to the theory are a different story, like I said follow the money trails.

'Is that a Damascus barrel? Don't shoot it, it will blow up! ' (at a Christmas turkey shoot, the fellow left the line after the first bird. So shaken up by the bp smoke and fire that he couldn't continue. ) The gun didn't blow up that day or any other since.

One of my old friends back in the 80's with the Bay Area Mountain Men was a feller named "Dutch". He had an old, original Damascus barreled (I think 12 Gauge) side by each with a blond stock that I absolutely LOVED. It was in great shape, too. We'd shoot some skeet sometimes during the monthly club shoots, and I hit almost every one I shot at with that gun. I tried soooo hard to talk him out of it... I failed. I still miss that gun. Him, too. He was a nice feller.

Yes, but they pop off with small steam explosions!

Yep, when "Science" isnt

You’re off base there. Have you ever ran a forum? You’ll see just what knuckleheads are.

And, the card is to keep scumbags from cheating others by fake selling guns. Maybe it’s not perfect, but it helps.

Again, have YOU ran a forum this big? You owe them an apology.

I can somewhat agree. I have however seen several harless threads that MANY were enjying be closed down for NO CAUSE ther thqan "personal choice". Dang I miss Zonie. He closed em if they got rowdy, folks began name calling etc. He always gave ya a warning though.

Was at a public range years ago. At the time, I only owned a percussion TC Renegade. Was shooting a target at 100 yards. Some guy walks up and asks which target was mine. I say "that one there at 100". His response, "oh, I didn't know them things could shoot that far". I just shook my head and ignored the clod after that. Numbnut!

Why didn’t you educate him instead of ignoring him?

So one or some of you made a complaint to the Moderators here on what they considered to be an "offensive" post.
I had no idea this forum encourages the Woke percentage.
Note to Coinneach, make no comment on anything here anymore.

 

[necchi]
