    Something tells me that “a guy fired a gun near me” is not going to get him the tiny amount of sympathy “a guy’s bullet nicked my ear” got him. You can’t wear a tiny pillow on nothing.

      Dude didn’t even get a shot off. And at 400 yards, an AK might hit the broad side of a barn. This was an assassination attempt equivalent to a palsy patient attempting to do brain surgery with a pipe wrench. (shamelessly stolen from Sin City)

        You can expect 4MOA or better from an AK, which means a 16" group at 400 yards. Not great, but not exactly gambling odds if you’re on the receiving end, either.
