Tonight my wife and kids were helping load our 2 hoggs in the stock trailer to go to the locker in the morning. One of them was a real bear to get loaded. We all ended up knee deep in pig "mud". Anyway after it was over and all were cleaned up for dinner, my wife said she was sure I was about to pull my LCP out and " do in the pig Jersy style"
So I was wondering If anyone else had comments to post.
 
You should take that as a compliment!

I really, truly believe it was just her way of letting you know how much she admired your restraint, and your patience.

Takes a pretty good woman to put it in those terms...you're one lucky man!

Best regards to you both!
 
Well, since she brought it up, I have to wonder if maybe she had the idea of borrowing that LCP and doing in the hog "jersey style" herself?

Althought I'd recommend a different handgun for shooting hogs. :D

My buddy Gary called me up one friday night. Said he needed held killing and cleaning a hog. I asked if he had a gun, he said ''oh, sure we got everthang". I get there and he's got a .22mag revolver. It took like 8 shots to the head before it fell. I'd much rather have seen it shot with a .380! I thought it was unethical to shoot the hog with a .22, and now I usually go with @ least a rifle to shoot em.
 
My grandfather ran a butchershop and killed hundreds of hogs and beef with a .22 Its all in putting the bullet in the right spot.
 
None of the 8 gary put in it's head seemed to do much more than **** it off. But my grandad worked at a beef slaughterhouse, and the .22lr did the job on the bovines, so you're right. But he did say sometimes a cow needed a blow or two from a sledgehammer to finish the job.
 
I killed a lot of hogs when I was kid and the weapon of choice was a 3.5# Plumbers hammer(Ball Peen) with a steel pipe welded on as a handle. That hammer was deadly. One smack to the head between the eyes and a little high on the forehead. Gone to the big mud hole in the sky. These were domestic hogs.
