Your going to handicap a Chiefs fans with oven mitts vs a Raider fan? I don't like the way you think RM

Anyone want to go into detail with how hard it would be to shoot a 30-30 with oven mitts on?

This seems to be the key question. Can you fire it? And you're also having to hang on to the ropes. The mitts may or may not be an advantage there, too.

The other wild card is that Carr4MVP is probably really good with a homemade shiv, being a Raiders fan and all.

I had to Google shiv.

Pennsylvania Raiders fans aren't familiar with what weapons our Oakland fans carry.

We are not all stereotypes.

I am more proficient in medieval weapons.

16 feet and mittens tied to hands is a pretty critical factor on this one. The CP Gladiator gods are throwing some crazy knuckle balls with special factors.

All TLO needs to do is sit down(hard but not impossible) and a determined trigger man can find a way to get a shot off with the mitts on. Calm down, breathe, use the sight and blast him back to 7-9 land.

Oven mitts = dead as ****.

Maybe TLO can bludgeon him with the gun but if I were Carr I’d just rock the **** out of the ladder.

There are oven mitts with fingers available: http://www.fivebop.com/fiveboptrade-...range-p-3.html

I think those would technically be oven gloves. We'll stick with the classic oven mitts for this definition.

**Buehler445** · 08-07-2018, 10:42 AM

But I voted for TLO because piss on the Faid.

Most, if not all, oven mitts have a separated thumb. He could easily pull the trigger with that.
