I am done playing with plasma rifles. I bought one of the early models (before the new MR.FUSION power packs were available). I also was limited to stay near roads because the 872 car batteries needed to power it are a pain to move around. As it turns out, I only shot it once. I tripped and fell and the damned thing went off.
You probably know that on several of the NASA moon missions the astronauts left behind mirror arrays so scientists on earth could bounce light of them for some reason or 'nother.
Well, this is what happened, no shit: That there plasma burst hit one of those mirrors thingies. That mirror must have been messed up by one of those Air Force guys that live in the secret base up there (I ain't supposed to know about it ...but I do). Well, that mirror, thank goodness, bounced that beam back to Earth about 15 miles from here (If it had toasted me, I'd been real mad). 'Course I didn't know anything about that at the time.
Well, that night on the TV they had a big story about some farmer who said that some of them space aliens probed him (I won't tell you where them probes went). Then they went up into space and fired some kind of super-duper raygun at his farm. Turns out that damned plasma blast ricocheted off of one of those moon-mirrors and blowed up a barn, three out-buildings, seven beat up old cars hidden in the tall grass and - now I ain't kiddin' - that farmers favorite outhouse.
That was when I buried the damned thing in the back yard.
Now I told you that story so's I can tell you this one....
That farmer said that he wasn't gonna let them space aliens probe him again, so he went out and got hizzself a brand new riflegun. And guess what it was. That's right, a 260 with a 16 inch barrel.
How's that for a coincidence!
