Awsome. 3 pigs and 2000 rounds or there about?
Looks like they may have been released from a cage.

Three very holly pigs.

 

[Texasgordo]

Holy shit!!! That is cool

 

[Chupacabra Hunter]

where is this? very cool !!!!!

 

[Nullrejector]

Sorry, I don't think it's cool.

 

[Stukaman]

That's wrong

The tree huggers think those pigs are cute little "Miss Piggy" type animals. I guess the haters don't have to endure the destructive behavior of overpopulated pigs. Still, it would be pretty hard for the antis to see that flick and not get revved up. Gun guys need to be more discrete when they pull a prank like this because it makes all of us look bad.

The trigger man was ineffective and I'm glad I wasn't buying his ammo. Short bursts would have done a better job.

I could see how you may see this as cruel.....a full auto killing machine... but i guess it depends if they leave those pigs for the coyotes or feed some people....

either way....the land-owner has a few less hogs to worry about!!!!!

What a hoot! I loved it.

I get the negative sentiment, but...

Have any of you who disapprove ever had to manage ranch land, manage farm land or manage game populations?

Unless you understand the context I don't really think you have any position to talk about it negatively, because frankly, you don't know what you're talking about.

 

[Nullrejector]

Yes, I've managed ranch and farm land. Yes, I've dealt with hog problems. In my opinion, there are better ways than that.

 

[matefrio]

Doesn't matter how many holes in them if they're dead.

That mini gun most likley dug up the ground more than the hogs ever could.

Most likely those hogs were in a pen cooped up and let go for the sport. Not unlike most canned hunts, pidgin shoots, or even high fence hunting that goes on.

That said someone's making a buck off those hogs.

Someone, I think, is going to helicopter mini gun them from the air soon.

Maybe not the most effective or humane way to do the job, but it was still pretty epic.

Humane? those hogs were only standing cause the wind was keeping them up with all their new holes.

 

[Stukaman]

I'm all for taken out wild pigs don't get me wrong, just using a mini gun is a little well like using a pneumatic nail gun too hang a picture.

 

[Mexican_Hippie]

So a mini gun "overkills" pigs, but it's less humane?

This logic does not compute.

 

[Stukaman]

Just not how I would do it doesnt mean you can't is all I'm sayen.

I help "manage" the hog population on a 5,000 acre ranch in South Texas. I think you need to consider that someone "spraying and praying" with a machine gun increases the possibility of something less than an ethical/clean kill. I am not talking about filling a pig full of holes; I am talking about the pig that gets hit in the ass, runs off and dies a miserable death. Maybe that's what some of the "naysayers" are thinking too. Bottom line: don't forget about hunting morals and ethics; they are critically important.
