I've received a comment concerning my previous post regarding not do anything that would cause the death of the cat involved as its their in built instinct to hunt down hamsters and mouse and rats.
Well, of course I wouldn't kill the cat, just that since I have a BB gun, with a high end telescopic sight, might as well have some fun with it. I'll probably cause some lumps and bums on the cat, but you can be sure that I wouldn't kill it. So, no kitty is going to meet the Creator, well at least not through me.
Well, the original rifle needs 6 AA size batteries. But since I decided to get them modified, besides switching the springs and the motor, these modified version needs more juice to work. So, here's how the modified batteries looks like.
I don't know exactly the what's the size is called, but they are six of them packed into 1 and it's rechargeable. This adds the power of the rifle to about 40% more than then the original version. Well, it goes without saying ,obviously it shoots further too.
So,, in preparation for the "epic battle" between man and the beast" I would need to practice on my shooting since it's been quite sometime since the last time I actually shot something. So, my target would be .......
It's actually a styrofoam cup, and since I will be hunting down a felis domestica, it's only appropriate to draw the target as similar to the actual prey as possible, agree?
so, ta daa........
I have 4 magazines of pellets at my disposal on the show down. Each filled with over 200 6mm diameter plastic pellets.
And this ladies and gentleman, my favourite accessory. Besides the telescopic sight, it has an integrated red laser mounted on it's side.
Well, normally if you're into some fast, wild and raw action, the laser would be best suited, as the pellets always lands on where you point the laser at, that's if you have had adjusted the alignment prior. The only drawback about using the laser is that it always gives away your position by tracing the source of the laser.
But I am more of "sniper" person who tracks my prey, approach them quietly, position yourself, then BANG for the kill... Opps sorry, no killing here. I mean.... er.... I shoot!
Laser on!
Target located and locked in.
Well, lets move on..
The main problem with this telescopic sights is that they are actually meant for sniper rifle, and not assault rifle. Though my BB gun isn't a real weapon, but these accessories are. Like the fore grip for example, its the actual thing.
These babies ain't cheap. But shooting is an expensive hobby to begin with. Why can't i have other hobbies that isn't so taxing on my wallet, like stamp collection? (Yawn!)
This is how my G36C looks like without any accessories and it's stock folded.
When you are shooting a rile, it' s best to extend the stock and rest it upon your shoulder.
One thing I like about G36 is it's capability to attach accessories.This baby came with an in built Picatinny rail.
Well, normally for close quarter battle, you don't need a scope, the in built iron sights is enough.
And it's accurate. In close quarter battle, it's better to have your assault rifle in fully auto mode, and one thing I've learned about room clearing is that you have move fast with your eyes glued to the iron sights so that shooting the enemy would be instant, rather than aiming then shoot, by then, your enemy would have probably shot you first.
This is your rear sight....
While this being your fore sight. You would need to look through a tunnel vision but aligning the rear and the fore sights while moving.
This would be how your vision be like when looking through your sights.
Because all you need is to squeeze the trigger when you encounter with your enemy.
Ok, let the target shooting practice begin. I've placed the target under the blue lamp on the bed.
This target.....can't see it?
Yes, the grinning cat picture on the styrofoam cup.
This is how it looks like when looking through the telescopic sights. But ain't going to use it here.
Too close to use it. What you would really need would be your fore grip, as the G36 can be quite heavy.
I had an extra Picatinny rail installed at the bottom part near the nozzle of the gun. You could attach lights, lasers, the fore grip,etc...
There you go.
Now you can really stabilize the rifle despite it's weight.
Now, after about 5 minutes of target practice, the styrofoam cup looked like this.
This would be the exit wound. Now, in real life, what is an ideal calibre of rounds do you do use and how do you chose them? Well, perhaps in my next post.
The top part is the entry wound, and the bottom outer openings are the exit wounds.
Well.. Kitty cat, I am ready for battle now! So be aware where you go, look around and check that you aren't being followed, cause the "Sniper" is here to hunt you down! In the name of the dead hamster, I am going to have some fun with this bugger!
