Like an Afghani Farmer

Who needs an 'assault clip'? Tonight I did.

It's 4am and I'm sitting here still a bit wound up. About 30 min ago I was woken up to the sound of a pack of coyotes (at least half-a-dozen) in our yard. About 20' from the house and likely heading towards the animals to try for a late night snack.

I grabbed the SAR-1 (AK clone) w/ a 20 rnd magazine, ran outside and started firing at them. Don't think I hit any (it's not easy aiming w/o my glasses) but between me firing and the pair of large collies charging towards them, they turned and ran off. Had they decided to be more aggressive and go after the dogs, I would have needed more than the five rounds I popped off.

My only regret is those first five rounds in the mag were Glasers.

Glad you're alright, shame you didn't get any of them. Have they been a problem for you lately?

Yeah, they've been getting closer the last few weeks. This is the first time they've come this close as a pack, before it was the occasional individual.

Coyotes don't normally run in packs; I wonder if these aren't hybrids, with some dogs mixed in. I've seen a lot of hybrids, and they will pack up the same as dogs or wolves.
