    Just taking this spot so noone can say f**** ;)
    I can imagine that guy got the marksmen status too ;)

    • Bronwyn says:

      Thanks for not using the f-word. :)

      I’d imagine this is why the military is asking for a larger budget.

      • jack mehoff says:

        If they can stop people from saying f—t in blog comments, I am not opposed to paying slightly higher taxes.

        I would be willing to pay grossly higher taxes if I could watch how they do it.

  2. Bochulain says:

    You know, always been curious about those things. I know *nothing* about guns and hunting, but I see these at sporting goods stores. I’m told they’re used for killing small game. Is there a military application? Particularly mean-spirited bunnyrabbits?

    • siobhan says:

      nah… you would us the holy handgranade on bunnyrabbits… or was that rabid bunnies?

    • Jack Squat says:

      There’s no military application whatsoever. Assuming this is real (which knowing some soldiers, it very well could be), the guy was just bored and thought it’d be funny.

      They’re only good for small game if you’ve got a pretty decent sized rock…I’ll stick with a .22 any day.

  3. Simon says:

    I wouldn’t know about practical applications, but I’ve got one of those and they’re surprisingly powerful.

  4. boaks says:

    lol, I’ll be the first to call ‘shop, but this is one of the cases where ‘shopped is better than not!

    • Des says:

      I don’t think so. Unless they managed to ‘sop his hands into different positions as well.

      • charro says:

        Hey you can perform miracles with todays Photoshopping technology.
        But I agree that it’s highly unlikely. I think boaks just felt the urge to cry “‘shopped!” out of jealousy or some other such emotion.

  5. BAW says:

    Remember David & Goliath from the Bible?

  6. BAW says:

    It would be advantageous in a situation where you didn’t want a lot of noise.

  7. Destin says:

    Awesome….

  8. Danielle says:

    Hey my brother is in the army and I just bought him a sling shot anyone know who this picture is of or where it was taken My brother is stationed in Texas and I cannot tell if that is him or not.

  9. SwantonDiva says:

    And they say the Canadian military needs funding…

    • I don’t see why they need funding, I can’t think of anybody who would want to attack them but that is probably my blatant American ignorance showing.

      • FaileV says:

        actually i believe they’ve been acting as an ally in Afghanistan. they may have left by now mumbling about stupid americans, but thats a little fighting at least
        and Switzerland keep stealing their stuff

      • ubr says:

        the russians want to cut the pipeline and invade canada through alaska. haven’t you ever seen red dawn?

        • BAW says:

          What with the melting of the polar icecaps, there will be a feeding frenzy over mineral resources under the Arctic Ocean. The RCDF will have a bit to do up there.

      • PortlandMark says:

        I think they need it to keep the US at bay once we cut down the last of our old growth forests. Plus, didn’t I hear they found billions of barrels of oil there? Shale, or something like that? I wouldn’t want to be canadian when we start looking into that!

    • GiganTick says:

      I see someone’s never been shot with a slingshot.
      Let alone one of the good ones.
      D;

  10. AC says:

    They’re referring to the annoying blonde Dennis, aren’t they?

  11. Alverant says:

    There’s a perfectly reasonable explanation for this. If anyone knows what it is, please post it here.

  12. Unknown says:

    Why does that guy have a little sling shot instead of a, oh I don’t know, A GUN?! Makes me wonder… I really hope this is fake and that guy just wants to be funny!

  13. DeathWyrmNexus says:

    *hugs* Thanks love

  14. DeathWyrmNexus says:

    *hugs* Thanks love

  15. ErnieSteele says:

    Man, the edit on LOL Pundit has gone WAY down. How did a caption like this even make it into the running?

  16. ascatal says:

    when your a buck private your the first to feel the defense department budget cuts.

    or to parapharse Godzilla

    ” I thought i said we need bigger guns!”

  17. Zero says:

    It was probably a drill sergeant’s idea of a joke. The guy probably wasn’t hitting anything with his rifle on the range. I saw a DS once throw rocks at targets to mock a private’s poor marksmanship. He actually hit a few, the private didn’t.

    • “Private, are you unable to complete the simplest of tasks? I said to shoot the target, not attempt to get its attention for your sordid sex games. Bullet cost money and you are wasting Uncle Sam’s money. Do you not care that we’re in a deficit and your incompetence is hurting America? Grab a slingshot and use rocks. When you can actually hit the target, Uncle Sam might find in his mercy to allow you to use bullets again. Now sound off like you got a pair and get back to practicing!”

  18. Falcon63 says:

    I don’t know what is worse… the fact that some people didn’t know what he was using, or the fact that some people actually thought the Army used those. And no, the image isn’t photo-shopped. Soldiers tend to get incredibly bored and do stupid stuff. Taking a wrist rocket to a shooting range is well within the range of stupid shit even I have done when I get bored (Yes, I am a soldier in the US Army).

    • SPCOsborne says:

      Agreed. I had a Staff sergeant play “super mario brothers” with me today out of boredom, lemme tell you: he looks chubby but mario’s gotta have some stamina to keep doing that stuff.

      I’ve also seen one of our guys run outside the wire and into an Afghani National Police station wearing an inflatable sumo suit (there was minimal risk actually: only 6 people lived in that town, the rest commuted), Two guys go sledding off a 40 foot drop into a snowbank, and other such sillyness.

      We get dumb when we’re bored.
