Title: public safety announcment
Post by: 5 SHOTS on June 01, 2007, 09:57:22 AM
I set my spotlight down face down so if it turned itself on I wouldn't be blinded in the cab, but I didn't pay attention to what I set it on. the next day it did turn itself on and I didn't notice  :doh2: there was 4 LOUD bangs,  and a fire before I discovered my mistake!  :shck: DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME!!!            (http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m24/5shots_01/badspotlight001-1.jpg)   I think the pic speaks for itself.              Oh and no one was hurt!  ( somehow )

The bullets themselves never left the box the one piece of brass did, but it was right there with the box.  :whew: The only damage was mountain dew on everything, and my witts, (scared out of)!
