How much of a concern is lead on your clothes, shoes, body, etc

>>33183773
I'd imagine it would take pretty chronic and intense exposure for it to be a concern. Like if you were an employee at a high volume indoor range with sub par filtration. Doesn't hurt to wash your hands though

>>33183773
Pretty much 0 concern.
As an adult, it's pretty harmless in normal amounts.
When I shoot pellet guns or bare lead bullet 22lr, I definitely wash my hands off since it turns them black.

>not taking a shower at the range

Haha, scared of penis inspection day are we?

Very minimal, I might wash my hands to knock some of the smell off. But after 21 years in the army, I'm sure they shot medicine into me that is much worse.

Also, why worry about late life illness that it might raise the chances of getting by a slim amount?

Far, far, far less than the trace amounts of lead already present on your belongings, your house paint, your food-- plus all the radio and phone and shit waves bombarding your brain like page 3 of a marvel comic.... All the toxins in the air from your moms old car that she has to give you rides in because neither of you can afford a new car after your third step dad walked out on you

Being afraid of lead exposure at the range is like being afraid of getting sucked up by a tornado while you walk barefoot through a desert with no water or compass

you're supposed to shoot the boolits, not eat them

>>33183773
Wash your hands before you eat or smoke. The only real way lead gets into your system is through ingestion. You can get it through inhalation, but only through seriously long term and consistent exposure.

-t: A guy who used to work at an indoor range who had to clean the traps.

>>33183773
I wash my hands promptly. I change clothes and shower when I get home but I'd do that anyway.

Main thing is avoid ingestion. That's why when I do much more dangerous activities like soldering (fuck ROHS, I use tin/lead for most work) and welding I ensure more than adequate ventilation.

My redneckbros evenmoreredneck wife got lead poisoning because her idiot white trash daddy used to cast lead bullets indoors. She found out later in life and had to get chelation therapy, but you can't undo any accumulated lead damage.

Lead, like galvanized coating, is no joke and merely because you may have been exposed to other HazMat is no reason to be silly.

I'm already late in life (AF retired) but don't need to encourage cognitive decline!

You mean zinc, you fucking moron? It has low toxicity, it's in your multivitamin dipshit.

>plus all the radio and phone and shit waves bombarding your brain like page 3 of a marvel comic
>non-ionizing EM is dangerous
Wow better stay out of the universe, shithead.

I have dedicated clothing, shoes, hat that I wear to the range and change after a session. A big tub in the back of the car to hold range bags gear, and dirty clothes. A bladder of water to hang on the car to wash up with. Also put sheets on the car seats though not really necessary. Nylon gun cases for toting from car to bench, pelicans for the car ride.

All this stuff stays in the garage when done. Only the guns come inside after a wipedown.

Might be a little crazy, but lead can build up in a house on furniture and carpet and I have multiple young children and a breastfeeding wife.

>don't give a single fuck

>>33183773
I'd be more worried about inhaling the vapors from the lead since it's been proven to cause some brain damage, but a cheap respirator should be fine.

>>33184174
Go heat up a galvanized pipe and get back to me.
Make sure you're in an area with inadequate ventilation

Hey I just figured out why my Howard Leights volume goes up too high.

Double up!

ignorent fag here. how get lead exposure from jacketed bullits?

>>33187058
Jacketed does not equal hermetically sealed

>>33187058
lands on rifling cutting into the jacket....

>>33187058
also exposed lead base

>>33187058
Primers.

>>33187206
>Primers

Used to do construction and shoot Hilti guns all day. Hundreds of rounds fired everyday. Pockets filled with spent rounds, filthy Hilti gun in the toolbags. Came home everyday and never once thought about lead. My apartment was probably full of it.

I guess I just don't care... If it's convenient I'll wash my hands before I eat or something.

>Find what you love, then let it kill you.

>also exposed lead base

I never considered that.

Does gunpowder burn hot enough to vaporize lead while pushing bullet down the barrel?

>>33184870
If you're on 4chan you already have dain bramage.

>>33187471
Yes, and it produces quite a bit of lead vapor as a result. Use bullets with covered bases to reduce that.

>>33185563
U trolling or just that dumb?

>>33189950
Are YOU that dumb? Welding is a quite a bit different from 'heating', wouldn't you say?

This is also not specific to zinc. Get over yourselves, you're a couple of retards who fell for some old wives' tale.

Putting galvanized steel into a campfire is enough to create toxic fumes.

Could lead exposure be the cause of gun nuts going on shooting rampages?
