first time Ive heard of a pellet rifle killing someone by being shot in chest..
Have heard legends of people being shot in head and dieing
[quote]Orange Park man struck by pellet dies An Orange Park man struck by a pellet fired from a pellet rifle died, the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office said Saturday after he was taken off life support. Charles Howey, 22, of Orange Park was injured Thursday in an incident that police said happened when two friends were playing with the rifle when it went off. Investigators were questioning Corey Barnes, 21, of the 8200 block of Hewitt Street in Jacksonville, the friend at the scene of the shooting. Howey underwent emergency surgery when the pellet lodged in his heart and was listed in critical condition Thursday. But the Sheriff’s Office said Saturday that Howey “was taken off life support under the authorization of his parents and medical professionals.” The Sheriff’s Office said the investigation into the incident is ongoing.

Damn that is crazy. Before airsoft guns were around we would 1 pump and shoot each other with bb's. We would play war games which were actually pretty fun.

Must have been one of those crazy fast pellet guns you see in the Cabelas catalog

It must have missed ribs to be able to lodge in the heart.
I wonder if one of the higher powered [1000fps or faster] would go through bone

I have one in my right hip. Was shot as a kid by my big brother. Never bled or anything, assumed it didnt go in and just left a red mark. About 5 years later I had to have an xray and there it was.

Well, that settles it. Trading in the .357 for a Daisy at lunch. Cost of ammo, mainly.

I had a buddy that was in pretty bad shape when we were about 6 or 7. His older brother shot him with a pellet gun and ended up with a collapsed lung.
We were playing Nintendo and minding our own business and he just walked in an popped him at PBR. He was getting ready to get me too until he realized that his little bro was really hurt. Scared the shite out of me. He was probably 14 or 15. I still wonder what he was thinking when he did it.

That shite is bad. I was in a fight one time and a cop was behind a guy I stuck. When the guy went down a cop was standing there and he got me good with it. Fight was over
