I'm sure we've all met that one guy who has the most extravagant gun or action related story's. Someone who clearly doesn't have any real world firearm experience whatsoever but claims to be an expert.

I was working with this guy recently and he was telling me how he can shoot a 9mm pistol 200yds and hit a quarter all day and was also recruited by the US government to do top secret work on a captured Russian submarine and how he had to be blindfolded while onboard.
🤣🤣🤣.

What kinda crap have you heard?

Please do not use anyone's name in your post.
 
Now that's funny :ROFLMAO:. It sounds like me when I use to drink 🍺🙃. Not firearm related, but were I worked, they were a few that told tall tales (and I like to debunk them with facts while they told them. I'm just that kind of guy). One gal told every one she drove the truck with the Space Shuttle on it from California to Florida. When I told her that couldn't be true (since I knew it was three teams consisting of three male driver each), she changed her story to the truck driving the Space Shuttle arm. One English gentleman told tall tales almost everyday. A few (I'll be brief, but his were really entailed), is that he met and invited into his house the Beatles who had car trouble in front of his house (nice lads, he called them), another was that he was personally captured by Field Marshal Rommel in Africa while in the British army (when I asked "you were captured by the Desert Fox", his response was no, it was Rommel), another was that he was in the Mafia in Canada as an enforcer for loan sharking (this guy was like 5'7" and weight about 120lbs. You'd laugh if he asked you for payment). We totaled up the years for all the jobs he told us he had, including the current job, and it came to 130 years of age. Coworkers used to get made at me for challenging him on his stories (claiming he'd stop telling them), but I always gave him an out, so he could continue with his regaling of his life's experiences. It was fun times listening to him and I truly felt that he totally believe the stories he told were 100 percent true. Perhaps the guy 10mmLife worked with was related to this guy 😉.
 
I can see the other side of the coin too. I relate some of my life experiences that are all true and get looks like I'm full of it. Now when asked I just say I'd rather not talk about it. Unless she's really cute. I do have my exceptions to everything. :ROFLMAO:

Well, here's another one of his "true" stories that may help you decide if he was being truthful. It does deal with shooting and it has some parts that are sexual in nature, so I'll try to keep it as clean as possible. At work, we called this story "The Magic Bullet" story. He told it starting out like this: "I have a story about a girl getting pregnant that you're got going to believe" he recounts that while in the British army during WWII, he and a group of soldiers were at the firing range training. He was shooting at a target with a mound of dirt background. He fires high, and unbeknownst to him, a fellow soldier if gratifying himself behind the firing range mound. As the shot travels over the berm, it picks up some self gratification and proceeds about a mile down range towards a farmhouse. In this farmhouse was a girl also practicing the art of self gratification, as the spent bullet enters and joins in, thus impregnation occurs. Nine months later, a child is born. Needless to say, my coworkers and I stood there mouths a gaping 😦🤯, as his "true" story concluded. I'll let you be the judge.

The guy I'm talking about has stories for days! He also tells everyone he has a commercial pilot license and he's also a boat captain. He's the most interesting man in the world.🤣

Urban legend: Been the Revolutionary War, happened in the Civil War, WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam...etc.
Truth is there had to be an explanation because we all know very well none of the troops were fooling around with any women. Surely had to be all those wayward bullets at fault.
 
Years ago I worked with two brothers who could stand toe to toe with any of the above story tellers. The best one was this .... they used to work out West as heavy equipment operators. so anyway one day they were talking abot how they were tired of eating coldcuts every day. He said there were Jackrabbits everywhere so his brother had a great idea to have a hot mean for a change. He took the D8 dozer he was operating and snuck up on one of these rabbits. He got close enough that he was able to drop the blade and chop that rabbits head clean off. :LOL:

Hunting: Don't need no guns, don't need no dogs, just a CAT named D8... love it!!:rolleyes:

Unfortunately the guy that told the stories with me has passed on, but the two sound like they could be related. I have enough stories to write a book from this guy.

Now that's funny 🐰👷‍♂️
 
I had a friend that did everything . If u did it he did it first or better. He was a truck driver for sure but if u add up all the years he did others jobs he was like well over 100. He was in his late 70 when he passed away.
Man, there sure are a lot of them out there. And I thought the guy I spoke about was unique.
 
I have heard some peoples stories but what is even worse is when I hear the same story from someone else that knows that same person and they start telling stories of the other person like it is their own.
