That reminds me of when I and the kids I hung around with went down to the hardware store and bought a bag of #6 lead shot.mukwah said:We did the same also! We would have BB gun wars with all the neighborhood boys! No shooting above the waist! Everyone would wear 2 pair of jeans. Still stung but not as bad. Man, we were really lucky nobody was seriously hurt!
Away from public view, all but one of the guys in the group would crouch at a line. Then, the one guy - the "shooter" - loaded a pinch of shot into the pouch of a Whamo slingshot and then told the others to run (away from the "shooter"). Then the runners then got a load of shot blasted at their rear ends from about 20 feet away. After that, we changed shooters. Other than a few "owies", nobody ever got injured. Everybody had their eyes intact.
