The only REAL goat tests get done on my goat ranch. A new round coming up! I have been know to dress big stinking billies (posthumously) in denim! I assure you that in .45acp Winchester Ranger Talon (or old Black Talon) does the deed in a superior manner. :D

Weenies..............hmmm.

Goats And Things!

For the still curious, there's some decent reading over at The American Backyard in the Gun Zone if ya search up MagSafe there.
I think that rec.guns has the goat tests in their library also.
 
I think I'll go with 45ACP dropping cattle for real US Army tests over the fictional shooting of fictional French goats.

Between the magic of Genie and the Witchcraft of Samantha, I'd have to come down on the side of Genie.:rolleyes:

Hey! Someone might just do a search someday for The Arming of America by Michael Bellesiles. Why not have cratz repost it here in an easy to read format as if the information were true or even important to aid in the quest for "genuwhine" knowledge?:D
 
Seaching & Surfing-

I was over at The Firing Line on the same search (MagSafe) and stumbled on the thread with Dean, Shawn and Plus P:D
Some of the best stuff I've read in ages IMO! Real gun guys with opinions, I luv that!
One of these days I'll try some of that scientific ballistic jello stuff, all we have here is the unscientific spoilt meat to shoot (salmon/bear etc) and the occasional porcupine to test bullets in.

Hey, point me to that forum and thread! I raise Boer goats here in OK and I'm always looking for some new way to prepare it. I have to shoot one myself every now and then but I cheat! I don't want to waste meat so I get them to look at me and then put a .44 Special right in the forehead. Works every time!

I prefer my goat slow cooked (in a crock- pot or in a roaster with a tight lid in the oven) with curry spices.

My only "goat testing" just proved that if you've never shot at a living creature in your life, trying to pick out a specific goat with a brain shot out of a big herd is not the way to start.

Back on topic..."extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence." I'll leave it at that.
 
Be very, very careful with those Boer goats.

The Boers gave the British Commonwealth troops a lot of grief, and in the second war introduced the Brits to the wrong end of machine guns for the first time. Whereupon the Brits invented disease-filled concentration camps for women and children.

Maybe you should raise hogs. There isn't the historical baggage and the smell of bacon in the morning will keep em in line. "Cept those ones from Orwell's book.

GEM, how long have you been waiting for a chance to use that in this forum? Any forum?

And as for this bit of understatement, I just can't add anything.
"British Transport Police Detective Inspector Dave Crinnion, who investigated, said: "I saw the goat the next day — it did not seem too upset but it is difficult to tell."

Are the Brits that keen on chasing down and subdueing those who commit sex assaults on people? Of course, we don't know if the goat was consenting...

Is this the famous High Road in action? Are you insulting me or what?!?!

I'm 42. Ex-Army. I live on 90 acres SW of Vinita, OK. I currently have about 45 Boer goats along with a bunch of other animals. We've had livestock for quite a few years. You are welcome to come out and check for yourself if you like. I get one or more deer every year. I don't know you from Adam but there is a strong likelihood that I've killed more large mammals in my life than you have.

I never said I just shot one out of the herd. I said, "sometimes I HAVE to shoot one." So that would be one that was hurt or sick and had to be killed. Or one that we decided to keep and eat ourselves. In any of those cases, the animal would be isolated. If it was sick or hurt it would probably be down in the hole I dug for it before I even shot it. I don't like carrying them 100 yards once they are dead. I drop them in the hole. They are sick so they don't jump back out. I tell them I'm sorry and then I put a .44 caliber bullet into their forehead. And they die. And I cover them up.

Any more questions?

I seriously doubt these tests happened.

And if it did...look, I'm an animal lover, but I'm not a weenie about it. I like cats, dogs, horses, you name it, but I've got no problem with hunting, so long as the kill is done in a clean and humane manner.

To top it off, I'm not very fond of goats. I've been around them long enough, and they never got on my good side (they're a lot smarter than they seem, though).

That all said, does anyone else think it'd be cruel and wasteful to shoot over a hundred animals just to see how long it'd take them to die? I mean GEEZ.
