Bicycles and Guns- Good Idea or Accident waiting to happen.

[P5 Guy]

Cowboy Action Shooting.
Bicycles were quite a big deal in the Gay '90s. Riding a High Wheeler and shooting? Now that is something I'd like to see!

Horses have a built in autopilot and autobalance processor. Bicycles have neither.

I know there's bicycle polo and the carnage can be pretty major in the pileups.

Also even primers or primers and a touch of black powder can shoot that corn meal or cob dust out at a fast enough pace to seriously hurt at very close range. Like what would happen if the rider falls and lands on the gun which is then set off.

All in all I can think of lots of great sports that could involve firearms. This isn't one of them....

I know of a couple of guys that mountain bike with contenders and XP's for antelope.

Not exactly the same thing, but stranger things have been done with bicycles.

Well, not exactly bi -cylists, but I saw pictures of WWII, motorcyle corps guys with Thompson Guns on s handlebar mount. Never heard much about `em, tho, for some reason!
I saw a movie with a cop on a motorcyle firing his revolver. Of course, it being a movie, he managed to both hit his target AND not spill himself all over the road.Suspect that`d be WAAAY harder to do in real life!
Sounds like a project for Myth Busters!
