More Challenging Than Skeet
Tired of trying to shoot those little clay birds? Looking for something a little more challenging? Try the latest thing!
A Michigan man has been sentenced to six months probation and ordered to perform 50 hours of community service for shooting at his neighbors model airplanes.
"Nuttle used a .410-gauge shotgun to shoot at the planes. He said his shots hit only one plane, causing two tiny holes in it. The plane he is paying for crashed when the child who was operating it lost control of it after being frightened by the shots, Nuttle said.
Nuttle told the judge he regretted his actions.
"I felt I was defending my family and my property from these airplanes, and I called police several times," he said. "But I made a bad decision that day and I realize that."
All joking aside, this guy is a complete idiot and should NOT be allowed to own guns. Jerks like this make it harder and harder for responsible, law-abiding gun owners.

Agreed, that was his first mistake, and the most egregious. However, don’t overlook his selection of inadequate firepower. You need more gun to bring down those pesky model airplanes. They may look fragile, but they’re actually tougher than a boiled rooster. And, you need to extend the lead, they’re faster than a ruddy duddy duck, but pretty good if you soak them in salt water overnight then fry them in butter. A cast iron skillet works best.
