Guest JohnGalway Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 My worst nightmare! when it's not bog/swamp all the ground here is pretty rocky. I can well understand how ya feel, any damage done? Anything come loose or the barrel get clogged up? I hope all is ok! What sling was it by the way? I use the Butler Creek Comfort Stretch ones.

Guest Ditch_Shitter Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 Horror! I have a BC Bouncy on mine, John. One night I was walking up the metaled track when I felt something leave my shoulder. I'll tell ye; It's just amazing how fast and hard an older man can react when a message screams in his brain that his rifle is headed for the road!!! I clamped my elbow against my side like a trap firing. Just managed to grip and hold that damn heavy piece of kit long enough to contort my left arm round my back and get a hand to it. That was about six months ago. And I'm only now getting over it enough to begin to accept that the guy in the shop simply hadn't secured the pin right when he put the strap on for me. I do carry it on my shoulder again now ~ but I've Always got my hand on it. Just in case! Quote Link to post
