My Stupid Dangerous Discharge Lesson. Even the best make mistakes

At 4am I had to lift the neighbors mailbox out of the ground, wood stand and all.
I ran to my carport and with very little light removed their white aluminum mailbox from the pole and installed the black one I bought. (I couldn't find another white one anywhere!!!)
I put the pole back in the ground, the old one in the box that the new one came in and left to go hunting.
(With a brief stop at an undisclosed dumpster to dump the remains of the old mailbox.)

A couple weeks later I exit the house and the neighbor is looking towards the street.
I said, "Hi Mark, what's going on?"
He said, "Somebody stole my mailbox!"
I look down the driveway and with a confused look on my face and said, "Your mailbox is right there!".
He say's, "I had a white mailbox."
And I with a perfectly straight face said,"Sure Mark somebody stole your white mailbox and replaced it with a black one?" as I shook my head and walked away, lol.
Oscar winning performance for sure. :becky:

Still feel bad about the whole thing, lol.

OK how did you manage to shoot a mailbox with a 44?
Reporting federal crime and reverse discrimination.

It's easy for an idiot!
You wipe down the Ruger Super Redhawk with the 2x Burrus scope you borrowed from your brother for a hunt.

(Having only removed 5 of the 6 nickel plated rounds from the nickel plated revolver, because it's pretty bright in the sunlight when sitting on your front porch and you clearly can't count to six without ****ing it up!)

(I had the rounds right in my hand, looked at the cylinder and they were all empty, looked in my hand and counted six.):twitch:

Then when it's all nice and clean and the scope is a crystal clear you look at the neighbors mailbox and drop the hammer, just one time, to get a feel for the trigger you know ........ and it just happens to be on the only round in the cylinder!!!!!!

The gun goes off and you're too shocked to even move at first....... :shocked:
Then you realize the cop is home across the street, because his cars in the driveway, so you better move quick!

Nothing happens for 1/2 hour, no one knocks on the door, no cops in your driveway.:spy:
One hour later nothing. :behindsofa:
Two hours later and it's getting dark, still nothing, time to pretend to go check your mail, so you can see if you hit your neighbors mailbox....

Yep, kind of a small hole going in and a huge one going out. Oops!!
You look through, line up the 2 holes and you can tell it came from the porch!

Go to Home Depot, go to Lowe's, go to Ace, go to Cumming Hardware nobody has a white aluminum mailbox.
So you make due.... :becky:

I should have kept is as a trophy! lol

EDITED TO ADD - That was my first and I pray to God my last, my hearts not that good and if I got scared as bad as I did that day, I'd probably topple right over!
