Title: gunshots in uzumlu
Post by: mr efes on August 25, 2008, 19:49:05 PM
Mr Efes was sat savouring his favourite potion this evening, at about 9.30, when to my astonishment a passing car going towards kezibil (hope the spelling is correct) let off aprox. 10 rounds in the air, frightened the life out of me, hope this isnt a normal event, did anyone else hear it? I NEARLY SPILT MY BEER!

Sometimes guns are fired at weddings as a celebration.  It was an old tradition which is now against the law, but sometimes it still happens.  This may be what they were doing?

maybe a bunch of men showing off. Hear guns go off allthe time and even automatic guns, its just something you will get used to.

The hunting season started again a couple of weeks ago, so you're going to hear a lot more of it.

Heard the shots (live on the Cameli/Kizabel road).  Must admit thought they came from the back of my house and were automatics.  Too quick to be single shot.
