Ok, So far i have tracked it back to 2009, Looks like the blog of a foot doctor who got sent the images by a friend. No mention of the how or why or caliber size.

Maybe you're right.  I have no idea where this story came from. Copied the title exactly how I saw it on FB.  I just thought the pictures were knarly.

Looks like a Liberal attempted suicide --- brains are in their big toe!   :crazy:

Bring them to the range. I have a rifle frame built specifically for hanging things to shoot at. LMK and I'll bring the frame.

I was thinking about bringing it to a LIFE fun shoot one day and try shooting it.  It's a pair, so I can offer up one to the black powder gods.   ;D
