Finding Ways to Make Shooting Even More Expensive
FJR brings up a great observation: we have not had a firearm-related post up for a while.
Dread and awful Czar,
Followed a youtube link from Borepatch and stumbled on to this cool video showing dragon’s breath shotgun ammo. Thought you might enjoy the video if you haven’t already seen it.
Been getting bored and depressed with politics lately so I needed a pick-me-up. Southern girls just love ballistics!

Dragon’s Breath is a pyrotechnic round, which is a nice way of saying that you basically are shooting money out your shotgun. If you do not have access to Dragon’s Breath, you can create the same effect by using ordinary buckshot and firing into piles of your money until it shreds. If you do not have access to a shotgun, you can simply set fire to whatever you have.
The Czar mocks, but the video is a lot of fun—largely because he paid for none of it. The Czar, some of us may know, is not the best shooter with a shotgun. Had he any choice in the matter, he would spend his money trying to hit targets with real pellets. And if you fancy yourself a pretty good shot, the Czar would be curious to see you take on the Mandarin, who is an absurdly fine shot with a scattergun.
Hooray for FJR, who gives us something new to scribble about!
Божію Поспѣшествующею Милостію Мы, Дима Грозный Императоръ и Самодержецъ Всероссiйскiй, цѣсарь Московскiй. The Czar was born in the steppes of Russia in 1267, and was cheated out of total control of all Russia upon the death of Boris Mikhailovich, who replaced Alexander Yaroslav Nevsky in 1263. However, in 1283, our Czar was passed over due to a clerical error and the rule of all Russia went to his second cousin Daniil (Даниил Александрович), whom Czar still resents. As a half-hearted apology, the Czar was awarded control over Muscovy, inconveniently located 5,000 miles away just outside Chicago. He now spends his time seething about this and writing about other stuff that bothers him.
