AggieDave 6 #2 April 19, 2002 hehe, yeah, I've seen those, they're pretty cool!(and for the Peta types, you use non-living birds, the training birds you use for gun dog training)A human cannonball, I rise above it allUp higher then a trapeze, I can fly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeflir29 0 #3 April 19, 2002 Quoteyou use non-living birdsDammitt....now you ruined the whole gag. You should have let them picture helpless little quail being catapaulted through the air to their death......"It's all about the BOOBIES!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sabredriver 0 #4 April 20, 2002 Actually I have three of them. I use them with "live" birds. The launcher will catapult the birds about 10-15 feet into the air. They are used to train bird dogs while teaching pointing, the launchers prevent the dogs from getting too close to the birds by remote control from the trainer.

freeflir29 0 #5 April 20, 2002 Boy those PETA people would shit themselves if they had been around the day I bought 30 quail. Let them go in a field and then hunted them down. Shot them and then ate them....."It's all about the BOOBIES!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kingbunky 3 #7 April 21, 2002 cool, but i want one of those chicken launchers the military uses to simulate bird strikes on fighter canopies. can you imagine launching a chicken at an office building? some guy, sitting at his desk and all of a sudden a chicken flies through his window? too funny! ...or maybe it's just way to early to be up on a sunday and the coffee hasn't kicked in yet.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~bunkyget crazy, before it gets you.

One in my car. One of the other ones was classic; I had to maneuver four times before I finally hit it. flyhi"To understand Mankind, you must look at its two root words; Mank and Ind."

airann 1 #12 April 21, 2002 Actually you are suposed to use live birds for the sporting dog training. I have never seen this aperatus before nor have I seen anything like it used for training dogs..... and I have seen many a trained duck dog and bird dogs and rabbit dogs. Instinct combined with retrieval training and gun training is all we ever needed. Skeet is alot of fun. (not my dog - the dummies like Clay)I mean the dummies made of Clay......Also Dummies made of cloth with bird scent on it, maybe some blood.......Ann ~ www.AirAnn.comAnyone want a Kitten?
