Melded springs, and what ever that blue ring force clan/league crap was, remember?

Question is, did you want too? :P Sure we could have found you a firing squad .

Yeah, a thread only for posting of video/pics w/background info only on these things. Ie. there was that vid of the guy pulling the BB out his head.

It's actually not a bad idea to leave it in if it won't do any damage. I fucked up my had a couple years ago and had either a piece of glass stuck in there or i had nerve damage. X-rays showed nothing but it's a piece of glass, had to try and find that, but they decided not to go in and look because of all the nerves in your hand and the possibility of severe damage. I can only imagine what could happen to the nerves in a homemade precedure, especially if your body has already started to form a scar around the bb (which it would after 7 months)

I once removed myself a piece of glass that was stuck in my palm (near the thumb) half a centimeter deep.
Was there for a month... The ''operation'' didnt even hurt a bit because the flesh has healed around the piece of glass.

i got hit by 9mm shrapnel in the chest once my winter jacket and 2 layers of clothing took most of it left a bruise and a slight scar. anyways, take that to a doctor don't piss around with something that deep or just leave it be.

[Ronan]

Thats nasty deep, have a doctor take it out or you will regret it on the long run.

Never cheap out on health.

Get a doc to do it... don't take a risk with infection. If you leave it in it'll become calcified. The body naturally calcifies any foreign objects so that it can't break up. However being in your hand (lots of nice delicate muscles tendons nerves) I'd recommend getting it removed, and by a doctor at that.

the AEG used in that is around 390fps... at point blank, burst fire.

and yeah.. some insane people here make their guns reach 500fps. If you live here... you won't blame them. There are a lot of zombies in the game.

Yikes.

I've had a BB in my left bicep from a 400 FPS TM G3SG1 at point blank range... Luckily I was able to pop it out quite easily..

Right bicep for me. n00b with no trigger control/concept of what a "10ft mercy rule" means lighting me up point blank with a hot kraken. Took two out myself with tweezers. There's pics on here somewhere.

[incrediboy729]

Is it safe? Let's say i want to keep it... will it breakdown in time and run through my system?

2 words. BRAGGING. RIGHTS.
But yes i would see a doctor, is it really worth screwing up your hand?

[TokyoSeven]

A few years ago I fell on some crushed glass and wound up with many splinters of glass inside me, after over 2 hours of a doctor ripping through my leg with tweezers he believed he got everything out. A few months later I noticed a sore, well I didnt notice the sore was there for a long time but it finally had begun to itch so I was scracthing at it. One day I wrapped my fingers around this tiny lump as if I were squeezing a pimple and just pushed as hard as I could and fuck me running a sliver of glass about 7mm or 8mm and about as thin as a quater stuck right our of my skin. I pulled it out and looked at it for a while. I taped it to a sticky note and wrote "WTF" on it, but I think I left it hanging up on my cork board in my office and was still there when I quit my job, so its most likly thrown out now.

But still, if you can afford it, get it removed.

... i really didnt think that a 390 fps bb could do that.... what was the weight of the bb??? hehe the zombie thing yea we have a few zombies around here but yea just keep shooting...

I'm guessing his left is the joy hand and he just likes that extra little wiggle.

You'd have to deeper than the BB is do any nerve damage.

If you want, go to your GP for some trumped up reason, and if he's like mine, you can grab Xylocaine and 2.0 silk if you feel the need. But a BB's sized hole should require neither, depending on your pain tolerance of course.


FOR FUCK SAKES TAKE PICTURES!




Once again, an awesome Zombie Apocalypse find Scarecrow!

I wouldnt use an exacto blade, too flimsy, i would go with a hobby scalpel, cheap at the dollar store just make sure its 100% steralizied.
