Weird View Quote we didnt go 20 yards in the woods line from neighbors house while firing guns, trespassing, and shouting intimidatingly, no Im not quite sure how you can even equate that to being the same If they got a group that spooked easier they might have caught some rounds. So its a pretty dumb 'revenge' tactic. The chainsaws and them screaming about. Whatever. Them shooting a rifle at unkown directions in the immediate vicinity of camp? Not fuckin cute at all |

Weird View Quote I thought that when I read the first sentences of the OP..."Shooting all day til 11pm, two days in a row? This is going to be a pissed off neighbor story." That did look like a good time though OP and glad nobody got they caps peeled. |

Sounds like the dirt road locals in their methy trailers didn’t like the rich guys with the DJ and the machine gun fire all weekend until 11PM. Fucking poors.
Good thing nobody got killed. |

Shot at while Camping, Long Version. Probably my favorite YT thumbnail, shocked no one else posted it. I don't get to shoot MGs or anything for that matter in my yard. But I don't have methbillys running around hooty hollerin with guns and saws; a bunch of guys in something called a Bearcat would show up with MGs if that happened in my hood. |

Hopefully the other guy will come through with the video from his NODs
Im impatiently waiting to see it |

Quoted: Yep it worked well. I saw two individuals pop out with the COTI from the woods. Think there were 3 though based on the voices. 2 men and a woman and others came to the same conclusion Granted I could have also seen them simply with the nightvision since they were walking around with flashlights. Although they would kill them from time to time. Once back into the woods though the thermal wont pick them up with the vegetation covering them. I could see their lights on the canopy of the woods as they moved about Supposedly the other guy I was with has action shots of all this with some nightvision recorder. I havent seen the footage yet however View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: You didn't pick up any heat signatures with the coti? That said, AK mag dump into the tree line.

You should have gathered everyone, worked out a plan and scared the crap out of them with your own shooting, hoop'n and hollar'n, mixed with "get 'em", "there they are", "fuck their shit up", "I've got two in the trees on my thermal", "pop that fat fucker", etc.

Lol I'm surprised the homies of GD didn't jump your ass for making above a cricket's noise after 9pm with a neighbor only 2 miles away.

Few years back had something similar happen at our hunting camp. We were on FS land and a dude came walking down the FS road screaming at us around 11pm about being on his property. We were miles from any private land. Dude sounded high, and similarly there were meth shacks down the road before the FS land started. We were camped at a fucking USFS horse trail landing.
My uncle and I almost ended up shooting this dude when he started walking into our camp. We couldn't see him and had no idea if he was armed. The next camp over was a few women and kids, the men were out in town. One of the women had came over and asked us what was going on, she grabbed a shotgun and went back in their tent. We yelled at the dude to stop and turn around, we were armed and this was not his land. Shining at light at him we could only see his silhouette when he got close enough. He was fucking jumping up and down and waving his arms around as he screamed at us. The freaky part was when he just turned around and left quietly disappearing into the darkness. It was like he went from 100mph to nothing and he was gone. I was ready to shoot this fucker with my AR thinking that he was going to raise a gun at us. I had a big ass adrenaline dump shortly after he left. I had never aimed a gun at a person before. My uncle wanted to pack up and leave that night fearing that the tweaker would come back and set our camp on fire. We hid all our gas and generator. Nothing ever happened and we never figured out who it was. |

I would've launched a flare in the air near their direction. Any legalities of doing that? Dry/drought down there?

Even if you weren't willing to go full SSS, a few suppressed rounds popped into nearby tree trunks as a form of demonstrative warning would likely have had some persuasive effect.

Occasionally i get the urge to sell my pistol ar with 60rnd mags and rare breed trigger at an obscene price.
Then a thread like this comes along and i say, "nah". You never know when you might need a bullet hose. |

Kentucky and Tennessee isn't Indiana.
We have backwoods here with the people type to fill it. And I've been shot at a number of times over people PP envious of big toys in eastern KY. My full rig stays in my POV. |

Quoted: What were they yelling? View Quote Hooting mostly. The rest was mostly just yells. If youve ever seen the hills have eyes the sounds those bros make in the hills to scare them is basically spot on what they were doing The only other thing I heard clear enough to say is they did scream "burn the witch" It was fuckin weird man |

time to add a mission recorder /gopro to ur gear.
shitty situation. |

Just why no one thought to call the law is beyond me. I know the phrase "don't invite the man into your life" but in this case they might have been handy to have around. Shit could have gone real sideways real quick.

Im betting if you had a bullhorn and said XYZ Sheriff's department they would have took off.

If the red boxes are accurate, you guys let some hill billy metheads literally surround your camp?
I’d either be gone like the other dudes or have formed a team to flush them out. No way in hell I’m getting shot or butt fucked by Cletus the toothless wonder. |

So let me get this straight. Y'all were armed to the teeth, kitted up and had nods and thermals. You then proceeded to turn tail and run, and the ones who stayed didn't form up and at least confront them?
Ok, you do you. |

Quoted: Lol there was a DJ there and I had to drown out the sound of his weird music choices . If you listen close you can hear the 8675309 song at one point in the video View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Maybe they heard that song in your video, I would have wanted to open fire just to make it stop! Seriously though, sounds like you crossed paths with some drunk, dumbass, rednecks. Glad nothing bad happened. Lol there was a DJ there and I had to drown out the sound of his weird music choices . If you listen close you can hear the 8675309 song at one point in the video And you think the song in your video is better than classic 80s music? I mean if you were playing the song in your video in your campsite the methbillies probably thought you were kindred spirits. |

Just confronting some people who are already throwing errant shots in the dark seemed like a bad plan of action We didnt want to get shot And we didnt really want to shoot some meth billys fuckin up our otherwise nice little weekend getaway |

“Why do you have a bullhorn in your camping load out?”
Well you see… |
|
lol y'all got punked by local rednecks. The mental image of you and your friend hiding behind a vehicle debating the legalities of defending yourselves while Jo Bob and Jim were drunkenly whooping and shooting into the night sky made me laugh.

If you started yelling “ they shot Frank” a few times they would have booked. Ain’t no meth head that wants to catch a murder charge.
A silenced .22 shooting the guns out of their hands might have been fun to watch. |

People drive around in the dark all the time and accidentally run over random chunks of metal and nails and stuff. It often happens when you're some place you shouldn't be out on other people's property. I think Paul Harrell has a similar story where someone was going to drive over his wife in a tent.
