Another reason not to clean the windows

Good Luck with the MRS.

ah yes..then a couple of them decided to come back for some Talon SS love.
Sweet, it went through two panes of glass no problem.
That sucks!Good luck with the wife.
I will keep you in my prayers.
yeah, the window saved their arses. From 10 yards away, it’s hard to miss…
I think the window I nailed is a two pane window that is going to cost around $300+. the wife is pissssssed.
Did the pigeons survive? 👿

Ya, somebody keeps your glass really clean. Maybe you need a sticker of some kind on that window…although something tells me that you won’t do that again.
Last October I was shooting at a rat and the pellet bounced back off of my backstop, richocheted off of a tall plastic water bottle and still had enough energy to put a hole in my kitchen window, (from the inside!). It was just a single pane and was fairly cheap to replace, but it was a good lesson. My backstop is made of softwood. Some pellets had stuck a quarter of an inch below the surface and I think that the offending pellet bounced back off of an embedded pellet. Now I dig them out and am considering a different backstoop material. These are reminders to be very careful!
I know it is difficult to share such embarassing events, but it helps us all to stay focused on safety. Thanks for sharing, and know that you aren’t the first…your are in good company! 😀
