Big Wild Boar?

[deanbmw]

the springer is holding onto that stick in the pigs mouth

have a look at the photo again kleinboet the reason the gun looks so big is because its about 6 ft closer to the camera than the people standing behind the boar(its an effect called forced perspective peter jackson used it a lot in the lord of the rings and sea angler magazine use it a lot to make small fish look like big fish) the log the boars heads on looks a different size in the 2 shots because the photos are taken from different angles as well as ranges. The smith & wesson .500 is a big handgun though weighs in at around 73- 83 ounces depending which model you have, mind you it needs to weigh that much to make the recoil comfortable to handle.

True i just thought i'd elaborate on it hope you didn't mind

[Newt]

i would certainly fish for them if they came up the wey

 

Chesters1 - sorry but you can only go fishing for fish. If you target dolphins you would have to go mammaling.

[chesters1]

if they came this far up their fair game

if i didnt get them the highwaymen would ,an i think i spotted a rouge last week but it may have been a cutpurse

Elton,

Number three may be a pig but it certainly is not a boar.

 

Can not believe no one else has picked up on this, apart from CG.

Not so wild, as it turns out - it was actually a stockie. In fact, it even had a name – Fred – and had only been bought a couple of days beforehand!

I think that the danger here is when that kids schoolmates get to hear about it. I would suggest that he is in for a bit of a rough ride and bearing in mind the sort of artillery that he has apparent easy access to that may not be a very good thing.
