kung fu

speaking of wanting to kick ass, what's with this guy in the machinery threads asking for a business partner, only 4 posts, sounds a little suss, he re-threaded himself into the bandsaw section now and does'nt want to talk much...

Lets see - a few years of Judo (retired broken leg) plus a few months of Dai Dao (big choppy thing on a stick). A few years on & off 'Modern Medieval' sword & shield, polearm, 2 handed sword.

A couple of decades on & off archery: European, Japanese & Central Asian.

Many years with Rifle, some years with Pistols, Machine guns (LMG) & other automatic weapons. Indirect fire is a bit beyond me. I'm hopeless with a shotgun unless I use it like a musket - can't hit moving targets.

And I'm always much wiser half an hour AFTER any threat situation, by which time it is safely too late to do anything.:D

i admire your ability with guns, but i just hate them, infact all weapons give me chills, much prefere hand to hand combat, braking bones, internal damage etc...besides unless it's a war ,what the hell are you going to shoot at in real life anyway, and unless your a cop or live in Texas, your not likely to have a weapon handy when you need it...

Just remember that the knife & fork you eat with are weapons, as is the hammer you hit nails with. Some years ago I could get access to the raw data for crime statistics before it was 'massaged' for public consumption - more people were killed with with weapons like 'hammer/chisel' and 'foot' than all firearm related casualties listed on the system.

If you are an 'Aunty Jack' fan, you might remember how the 'Nowra Ninja' got his - a chop stick in each ear :eek:

My feet are deadly weapons, just that while I'm taking off my shoes and socks I get the crap kicked out of me Courtesy of the late Dave Allan

I did Goju Kai for a couple of years but never got very far with it. Yellow belt with 2 green stripes. I did learn to count to 10 in Japanese though, so it wasn't a complete loss!

Now listen carefully chaps:

Like Clinton, I am a grand master at the art of Hideind Ark and have had more than 50 years practice.

With the onset of age, and this may be in part due to the fact that as one gets older one's wardrobes have a somewhat less sulubrious content than they once enjoyed, I have noticed a distinct wheeze creeping into my hiding technique, which of course will eventually give the game away.

I am rather proud of the fact that I won my last fight by nearly 200 yards, and to this day am mystified (no offence) by the need of some of our number to learn "self defence" techniques.

On the rare occasion that I have inadvertantly placed myself in danger, I have relied entirely on the traditional Australian art of Pic Khandles Winging, and to my knowledge remain undefeated in that art.

Cheers,

P (Who would never take a knife to a gunfight)
:cool: :cool: :cool:

that sounds similar to the 'crouching under table hidden in the dark' technique...


bsrlee...your right about the common household items are weapons, i once hit my thum with the hummer, and stabed my self in the hand with a chisel, yep good weapons....

paper cuts can kill too...

Are Biting Midges related to Grasshoppers (or indeed glasshopper):confused: :rolleyes:
Or as a friend of mine used to say (wif criff wodga voice) what kung fu dat.......

I still prefer to dissuade the attacker, usually only a small amount is required, I find that 9mm is enough to have them saluting. Not Seig Heil, Sig Sauer:rolleyes:

Isn't that .38 or .357 in imperial:p

One of the things to love/hate about Imperial, as you know they're both the same calibre except the little one has far more bang behind it. Sort of like the difference between getting hit by an orange or a house brick. :D

9mm Black Talon is house brick material too. ;)

this gun talk is good and all but what if you are unarmed at the time...that's were 'steal hand" comes in handy, (not a myth), imagine being able to hit so fast (about 8+ punches per second)and so hard that one punch will cause massive internal dammage to the attacker...


brutal...

Hi all,

Had a burger at the golden M today and i am sure it had a kung fu on but it tasted like had been run over with a truck and allowed to mature in the sun for a day and scraped up of the road especially for me :p :p :p :p

Regards Mike

yes MICKYG it was, did'nt you know that...they all are
