Thread: Funny what a bullet will do

Firepower displays in the desert in Waiouru: belts of tracer show that bullets hitting hard surfaces even a km away can indeed circle back at you. Quite spooky watching these fireflies floating back towards you

A colleague in the British Army that I worked with in Germany had just come back from a tour in Northern Ireland: He had shot a 'terrorist' in the calf as he was departing the scene of a crime. Bang flop. FMJ had ricocheted off the tibia and turned 90 degrees, worked its way all the way up his leg and exited after gutting him.
