Pure incestuous whoring.
Yes, those are the characters/people of various webcomics:
Jen and Obbi of The Devil’s Panties.
Davan of Something Positive.
McPedro of Girls With Slingshots.
Some people only put characters from other comics in their own strips with permission. Fuck that. YOU’RE IN A GUN COMIC NOW, BITCHES. I <3 you all, especially Randy and his beard. Now link to our strip, you bastards. This strip, in panel #1, touches on a thing for me. We met Obbi at Akon this year, and he and Jen stayed at our place before and after the con. The boy has a deep fascination with Hornady’s Zombie Killer bullets. I tried explaining to him that there are better fragmenting rounds out there, for a lot less expensive. Feel free to argue with him in the replies to this post. Personally, I think the Winchester PDX line is fabulous, having tested it on watermelons and discarded printers.
YEAH, I’M CALLING YOU OUT, OBBI. YOU STARTED DATING JEN. YOU TOOK HER AWAY FROM ME, AND NOW YOU’RE FAMOUS TOO. SO STEP UP, BOYO, AND who am I kidding, I’d eat a hot fudge sundae off your chest. Your delicious, manly chest…
Moving on.
Let’s look at a good frangible round test…
Unless I’m using a rifle, no fragmentation for me, please.
You KNOW they picked that corporate name, just so they could have that acronym.
With all that noise and the relevant source links included, nobody should complain about the cameos. It’s not like that moron Goldberg hawking tee shirts with Dave Kelly artwork minus credits on them. It’s the difference between stealing and advertising!
I’ll stick with Hornady XTP. Frangible bullets work well in Jello but fail to take into account the possibility that the zombie is wearing a leather jacket and/or has an arm in the way. And, if one calls Hornady, they’ll admit that the only difference between their zombie loads and their regular personal defense round is that the polymer tip is green instead of red. I believe zombies are color blind so I buy the cheaper stuff.
They’re not going for the gun buff here… they’re going for the autistic geek type (like me) that wees his pants over stupid ThinkGeek stuff just because it mentions Dr. Who or Star Trek or something like that. How cool it looks is prime. How well it functions is secondary. Kind of like a Harley Davidson.
Or an AR.
what caliber for Zombie? suppressed .22 or .223 in a rifle, kthx. quiet, lightweight, incredibly abundant, and it’ll bust through a rotting brainpan pretty easily.
for attacking human, i prefer Ranger Ts.
SQUEE!! I got sent over here by DP ages ago….and this is just the awesome sort of love I love to see amongst my webcomics. AWESOMENESS!!!!
Specifically, Jen sent me to Two Lumps, which of course linked here…woot!
Yes, but they don’t have advertising like this: Z-Max
WHAT??? No Zombie killin’ bullets?!? Next you’re gonna tell me you can’t order me one of those Red Jacket Zombie Slayin’ bullpup 10/22s, I bet!
I didn’t get the references until the credit line at the bottom, I just thought these were run-of-the-mill weirdos who come into the store looking for crazy stuff, like most employees will tell you about. Ok, I started wondering if he was on some *good* cough syrup, for thinking the cactus was talking to him! Then I looked back up and I was “Oh yeah, that *is* Jen and Obbi!” Jen’s done a good job of drawing the guns in her comic, using real references, instead of just making a “gun-shaped object” like many editorial cartoonists will do.
i keep hornady critical defense in my .357 magnum lever action. although i am in the market for something a little more powerful, seems they don’t load em very hot, which is great for revolvers, not so hot in a 16 inch barrelled rifle.
That would be what Davan loads his guns with.
Yeah the stuff is just critical defense. Which I like but I am NOT paying extra for a green tip.
Just the tip?
Federal HST, personally.
Listen man, it’s great that you want to get creative and write your own comics, but your humor is a mix of tired firearm memes and the same humor you would find in a church pamphlet directed toward elementary school kids. your characters look like they were made with a “make your own web comic” app and they lack depth, direction and dedication. your plot and storyline remind me of a sad snobby girl’s journal. normally i would try to be nice and encourage you but you promised reddit something that you are just incapable of delivering.
I what?
You are obviously on drugs. I never promised Reddit a goddamn thing, and have no idea what the hell you’re talking about.
you went on reddit and promised a webcomic revolving around a gun store when it’s a comic about some fantasy romance you doodle about in your diary. i’m sorry but your premise sucks, your drawing sucks, the gun jokes sucked about 10 years ago when people on gun forums first made them. there is nothing original about your story other than the fact that it is shittier than most. this is not a comic this is a fantasy in the diary of someone who has had no real social contact outside of other gun owners. don;t promote your crap on sites unless you’re ready to be judged. the only thing funny about this poorly structured comic, is the fact that there are other people defending this garbage.
You realize I didn’t post this to Reddit, right?
How do you get to work in the morning without tripping and falling and killing yourself due to poorly tied shoelaces?
I don’t think you’re reading the same comic the rest of us are, tryingtobehonest. If you are, and you’re that unhappy, there’s nothing that makes you return. Just choose the website on your favorites list, remove it from your list, then refuse to follow any links to the site.
As for the name you’ve chosen to use – tryingtobehonest – the people I’ve found using that phrase followed or preceded by absolutely trashing someone else are usually people who delight in ripping people down and hurting them. They’re using their so-called honesty as an excuse to indulge both their sadistic side and their self-righteous side. It is not a flattering trait.
Deleted bullshit because this is trolling – not “honest” anything. -J
…Whattadick.
Like the man said earlier: You think you can do better? Get Cracking, then. Let’s see it.
Fuckwit.
Please ignore the blatant trolling, Mel and J. For every creep like this, there’s at least ten readers like myself who consider FTF one of the best new humor strips around. As someone who doesn’t know a lot about guns, but wishes she did, I’ve been finding the strip and the assorted links very useful, in addition to getting a daily dose of humor. Keep up the amazing work!
trolling is the last thing i am trying to do. but being brutally honest with someone who has isolated themselves in a bubble of praise. the honesty and the throwing of some colorful adjectives is the closest i’ll be able to come to getting the time i wasted reading this back. he thought it was good enough to promote in the firearms section of a website with one of the biggest user bases in the world, and, well it wasn’t
You’re an idiot. I did no such thing. Don’t like the comic? Move along.
You made Reddit cry.
Deleted more trolling. – J
On the Zombie Ammo, don’t use it for defense. Listen to Massad Ayoob on this one.
That said it’s merely a different color plastic plug in the round, but with the warning on the box a prosecutor could have a field day. The best bet is don’t give them the option. If you (or your buddy in this case) like the round, buy a box of Critical Defense and save yourself the possible additional legal nightmare should the worst happen.
But, with regards to the strip, I’m loving it. Just remember, haters gonna hate. (Yes I realize that centers around blogging but I figure most of it is applicable here too.)
Haven’t tested it on any watermelons, just fired it of course. Cor-bon n’ Glaser’s joint Pow’r Ball round. 9×19 100 gr +p from a all-steel framed Kahr Mk 9. Can’t vouch for what it’ll do, I just like knowing there’s 15 extra grains of weight hitting target. My barrel is only 2 and 3/4 inches, so these specs won’t be accurate for me:
Caliber: 9mm Luger + P.
Bullet Wt.: 100gr Pow’RBall.
Velocity: 1475fps.
Energy: 483ftlbs.
Test Barrel Length: 4.0 Inches.
And no, I wouldn’t dare put ’em through Kahr’s polymer pistols. Not after reading a review where a pm 9 blew out a grip panel with just standard-pressure jhps!
Just found this comic and am enjoying the hell out of it. Have been a target shooter for many years and this site gets me grinning. Um, you all do know that replying to the nitwits just brings them back, right???
Maybe. Or maybe not. In the end… no great loss, when I can just ban anyone who gets too unruly.
Huh. I’m still using Gold Dots and Corbon in a Kimber Classic (no II; barrel and receiver made in Oregon and Maine). Guess I’m just a stick in the mud, what with you kids and your candy colored rounds. But hey, I recognized Davan, Jenn, and Obi! Was. Reading them, along with some comic about a guy with a blender and a melon baller.
