Have you ever been shot?

[LtScott14]

In 1994, serving a warrant, took fire from the perp w an AK47. Rounds were bouncing everywhere and felt a sting in the side of my webbing for my helmet. Just a nick, but bled like a serious head wound and had to get stitches in my head.

Shrapnel did the damage. No slug recovered. Chief put me in for SGT. and more ERT training. Have hearing loss now probably from the incident.

Hit by a ricocheting bullet from a 22 handgun back in high school. It was a negligent discharge in a car. A friend of mine that had no business handling a gun set it off while in the seat behind me (I was driving at the time). It felt like someone hit me on the head with a hammer, I was wearing a hat at the time and you could see a mark on the hat where the bullet struck me (never found the bullet though), there was no penetration but I did have a split scalp. When we got home we hammered the dent out of the roof of the car and painted over it with a spray bomb so the parents wouldn't notice. I could have very easily been killed that night and have thanked the Lord on many occasions for sparing me.

I took some very small shrapnel from a .22 bullet to the left hand when I was a teen. It broke the skin but wasn’t too difficult to remove.

I had a .22 and a shotgun pointed at me on two different occasions but no shots were fired.

I got hit in the eye with a small piece of a hardened 40d pole barn nail. I got it out with a toothpick. I still have a brown spot about a quarter inch to the left of my right pupil.

 

[awittmer]

I would just like to post a "Thank You" to all of the current and former members of our military as well as the LEO's that have posted they were injured while performing their duties to our country. It is because of the sacrifices of these brave men and women, we can enjoy life as we know it.

1968 hit by 7.62x39 in upper right thigh. Knocked my down while running. Not knowing what had happened, got back up and tried to run again but no luck, down again!! Bleeding pretty bad but still was able to crawl so off I went, About 150 yrds. Later medics took over. An hour later in a field hospital having the bullet removed. To this day, I still have the spent round that was dug out of my leg. At the time, no pain, Numb, but feeling no pain until the next day. I will say this, while running when the bullet hit my leg, it knocked me to the ground as if a truck hit me. Kind of spun me half around and in the dirt pretty quick. Lots of blood and I thought maybe it had hit the femerel artery. Thought I was going to bleed to death, but thank the man above!!

Was shot at from a shotgun while riding my dirtbike. Lesson learned..."It's okay, I ride here all the time" is not a statement to be believed, even coming from a friend.

2nd lesson learned...it is possible to ride significantly faster than your best race pace.

 

[CombatVet]

Been shot at, does that count? Hoji can't shoot for ****.

 

[grimor]

was mugged in Chicago about 4pm at a McDonalds. I don't think the guy knew how guns worked since he tried to shove the barrel through my lip. The guy only got 8 bucks in ones, I hope the cops found them. My description; 2 black guys near the projects, one had a bulls jacket.

Didn't they know handguns are illegal in Chicago?

 

[hick185]

never been shot but had a stupid close call. twice a month me and my buddies get together and shoot skeet. then after we're done grill out and drink. well one of my friends(who just happened to be a girl i had a huge thing for) brought out her new boy friend. He told us he was good with firearms and used to dove hunt with his dad. so we figured he would be safe enough to shoot with. since he didn't have his own shotgun one of my friends let him use one of his. when we shoot i have the habit of counting the rounds left in not only my gun but in all the others as well. well this guy was up on the line with another person and they shot. the other person was empty and the guy thought he was. he come over to talk, wasn't watching where he was pointing the shotgun. I told him to watch where he was pointing. He said" but its not loaded" and pointed the gun at me while his finger was on the trigger. I new he had one in the chamber i told him to give me the gun. as he was passing me the gun i told him that "if there was one in the chamber i was gonna break his ****ing jaw." i racked the slide and out popped a round. so i cleared and safetied the gun and handed it to my friend, walked up to the guy and punched him in the jaw. well he went home only to later go to the e.r. and find out he had a cracked jaw that was the last time my friend ever talked to him. a week later i finally asked her on a date. a date that led to many good times.

Only with BB guns, I hope it stays there and doesnt go higher in caliber.

 

[Neo46121]

No. I've been drawn on once, but was able to talk him down. Started carrying the following week.....

I was shot by a pellet gun (was supposed to be a bb only war, yeah I know.. very stupid) in the left hand point blank when I was 12 (had to be surgically removed) and I also took a 5.56 mm ricochet to the neck when I was in the Marines (had to be surgically removed). Neither one felt very good, but when I took the 5.56 round to the neck I was in such a high level of shock the pain was even less than the pellet to my hand, go figure! The injury to my neck was a freak accident.. happens in the military more often than people realize. I also have nice scars from both "shootings".

I've also been shot at when I did armed security in the late 90's, cops caught them.

 

[JBob77]

We did our pellet gun wars with that cylindrical shaped rabbit food as ammo. you can break them in half, and they are just the right size to fit into a pellet gun. They hurt like hell, and even broke skin, but usually disintegrated on impact!

 

[MACHINEGUN]

Got shot in the eye with a homemade bow and arrow. Was a freak accident.

This happened to my Brother when we were kids.. he was using a compound bow.. ricochet'd off a tree and hit him in directly in the eye. He has had a glass eye since we were kids.. he is one tough sob too!
