A salute to Rob - Death to Technology

As I finish up my spring in winter cleanup, I'm feeling the need to terminate technology Rob style, but with no strong wall handy, Im planning on an afternoon at the range.

For my first activity, I cant decide between trying skeet with 2.5 IDE drives, or just lining then up on the backstop and mowing them down like bowling pins.

I also thought about maybe a penatration test module, shooting them with:

22
38
9mm
357
40
44 mag
45ACP
45LC
10mm
223
308
5.7 x 28
12 slug

Other calibers on special request, these are just what I have on hand.

Then Im going to branch out to some others, including a cf-28 and a pair CF-47s, some MPC x1000, and end with some 28 and 29 damaged lids.

Any other suggestions?

 

been told the cf-28 lid is level 3 SA - put a couple 5.56x45 M855 through one for me.....

 

M855 it is, will test that report and advise

 

12GA slug should tear a hole through anything close up but try distances on the lids and let me know

 

I have almost penetrated the cf-28 lid with only 2 shot from a .177 (4.5 mm) hw30 airgun fired at a point-blank range... 7.5 joules per shot..
a 22lr round is about 100 joules..

(interior damage)

Not so tough...

 

The rifle range is seven hundred yards, but most of my stuff is SBR so I'll be a little closer.

I do have a Serbu super shorty in 12 gauge, basically a remington 870 with a pistol grip and 5 inch barrel, so a slug should be interesting, not to mention fun to hold onto.

 

Most def need to end it with a 7.62x54 That's just what I would do. Not sayin' jus sayin! haha

 

OK, I will end it with the SCAR M17, 7.62, that or break out a buddies Barret M82, but that thing is almost to much.

 

Sounds like a BLAST, no really it will be a B L A S T !!!!!!

 

if ya got some tracer rounds it might ignite the magnisuem that would make a show. have fun.

Speaking from experience, the HDD skeet shoot will be a disappointment and a rather serious PITA when you have to go searching for the victim HDDs.

Even a direct, close-cluster hit at 30 yards yields only moderate damage; sometimes knocking off a few SMDs and cracking a PCB or a few dings in the platter cover. By far, the greater damage is done by their contact with the ground; 3.5" drives especially like to roll edge-on due to considerable rotational velocity from the traps. I've actually seen a couple laptop HDDs dig in or separate the PCB from launch velocity though. :laugh:

For maximum explosive potential, I recommend shooting them off of fenceposts with a high-velocity round like your 7.62 NATO; set them up on edge and place a high-visibility yellow or orange paint mark at the axis of the spindle as a target. Once you get a little experience, you'll be exploding them all over the place with one or two shots like I used to do with Grand-Dad's old Enfield.

Shot.

 

HEAT round from 106mm recoiless should do the whole pile it one go.

Why not simply tape a grenade to it? I mean, if yer going for overkill, why the heck not?

 

Well, not sure I can get a 106 round at Walmart, but I'll check....

And I havent played with grenades since wearing a bright blue wool cap and vacationing in Kosovo during the 1999-2000 serbian sporting season.

Not a bad suggestion as a grenade were only 10 DM on the blackmarket, while a box of 7.62 is about $32. USD. I should have stocked up.

 

Thanks for your service.

 

Might try the Walmart in Baghdad or Kabul. They seem to have an abundance of explosives readily available from SOMEWHERE over there. I think they may be special ordering them from the Tehran store.

 

Do you think they have free shipping with in-store local pickup here?

Probubly not if the Tehranians are gonna block the straight of hore mouse

 

I vote for the Barret M82, please post a picture
