A few miles out from Southern regional. They have been quiet the last 24 hours though. I have the vhf simulcast frequencies for Fayette Co and peachtree city FD and I've not picked up anything from the 2 in the rr database if someone has any feedback on that.
i dont think PTC even allows hunting within City Limits period. at least with a actual rifle. BB guns sure... arrows no problem. i had 4 BB guns when i lived in PTC..... one i loved! and then my father had his weapons.... never fired them in PTC though.... we always went to north outskirts of Tyrone or up into Fairburn at that range ( i cannot remember the name ) they had.
the BB Gun was a 950 FPS rated Multipump equipped with a HOLOdot RDS and a barrel fitted laser. i was god with that thing against squirrels, snakes, rabbits.... chipmunks.....
lots of snacks
and good quick sandwiches
good ole SR huh.... i hated driving and even worse WALKING around there... PUHLENTY of junkies trying to intercept you for junkie $$$ and junkie products themselves.... CVS has a ( i think he is still there too ) armed guard to chase off these idiots from almost attacking people for their script drugs.
sad, and exactly the reason i left "Ghetto of the South ATL" area. never to return unless i am passing through.
just seeing a Clayton tag stirs memories....... did you know in 2002 Clayton County was cited as the "Worst" Driving record in the state in 5 different categories? topped all 5 categories as #1
side note for PTC weapons.... there was one exception. my father, my brother and myself we were heading down Bernhard road between south PTC and outskirts of South Fayetteville. driving a 88 Jaguar Vanden Plas XJ-6 a deer was spotted by dad..... he slowed down as it was raining lightly. deer turned and started walking back into the trees........... when .......... POOF!! deer made a panicked 180 right back into the road just as dad is resuming speed of 45 on Bernhard........ SPLAT!!! rear quarter of deers butt clips left fender. body whips around sending the head and small 3 point antlers into the drivers window. inches away from dads head, i watched those antlers damn near punch a hole in his temple. locking the brakes down, we pulled over and parked.
there are intermediate powerlines running down Bernhard. i believe either 30-60KV lines. and these are the days of 1st gen cell phones..... MASSIVE interference.
im steadily trying to call Fayette SO, no signal, no signal, dropped call, no call back..... dad is fuming at this deer, squirming around. deer starts to get up and attempts to troll away... dad is like OH HELL NO! runs to Jag, grabs 92M Beretta with the 17 round mag. loads, charges...........
POP POP POP POP POP POP POP POP POP POP
out comes 10 rounds head and neck .
im looking at him with this expression of like "ahhhh"
6 minutes later a SO unit is HAULING *** down the road and stops at us.... Deputy is ordering us down...... im like HUH??? finally i realized someone heard the shots. there are homes within like .5 to .75 mile.... so when the sheriff realizes this by seeing the car and the deer butt guts on the fender and quarter panel... he relieves us of duress. he asks... sir did you fire a weapon? dad acknowledges yes, and requests to show the pistol. SO concurs, and allows to unload, clear and present. SO starts laughing ... after looking at the ext mag and only 7 rounds left, walks to the deer and sees the 10 holes. laughs harder!! okay sir, let me get my paperwork for a dead deer and paperwork for your accident.
found out the SO was a Marine also.... so we spent a good 60-90 minutes there talking back and forth.
