Stern saw the Thing's red-gleaming eyes fixed on Beatrice. In those eyes he clearly saw the hell-flame of lust. And as the woman screamed in terror, Stern pulled trigger with a savage curse. The shot went wild. For at the instant though he felt no pain his arm dropped down and sideways. Astounded, he looked. Something was wrong! What? His trigger-finger refused to serve.
So the devil burst forth, and all unaware, for McCarthy found himself eye-high with the muzzle of a Colt's revolver. "Is it loaded?" he asked. "I belave ye. But why are ye lingerin'? Lift the hammer, will ye?" The correspondent's trigger-finger moved and there was a warning click. "Now pull it. Pull it, I say. As though ye cud, with that flutter to yer eye." St.
The bear crouched on the bull's back and actually roared at the girls who had come to disturb him at his savage feast. Ruth's trigger-finger was firm. It was an automatic rifle, and although it fired a small ball, the girl had drawn a good bead on the bear's most vulnerable point the base of his wicked brain!
There are three things in military life which make a great appeal to me; the rifle's reply to the pull of the trigger-finger, the gossip of soldiers in the crowded canteen, and the onward movement of a thousand men in full marching order with arms at the trail.
Men attaining supreme exaltation died in the instant of that attainment; pulses that leaped with the joy that comes when sight lines with bead, bead with living target and the trigger-finger begins to move, ceased their beating more abruptly than a machine stops when the power is turned off.
Needn't smash a feller's fingers 'bout it!" screeched Oncle Jazon. "I can't shoot wo'th a cent, nohow, an' ef ye cripple up my trigger-finger " Kenton had been peeping under the low-hanging scrub-oak boughs while Oncle Jazon was speaking these last words; and now he suddenly interrupted: "The devil! look yonder!" he growled out in startling tone. "Injuns!"
Most of them were tuskers and the sight of one magnificent bull near Dermot made the sportsman's trigger-finger itch, so splendid were its tusks shapely, spreading outward and upward in a graceful sweep, and each nearly six feet in length along the outside curve. There was a large proportion of females and calves in the assemblage. The youngest ones were about four or five months old.
You are a marvellous shot, lad, and you will have one satisfaction, which is, that when this affair is talked about, and it is known that you said beforehand that you intended to take off Marshall's trigger-finger, and that you did it, there is no chance of your ever being forced into a quarrel as long as you remain in the army." "Thank you, Major.
You may have a swollen head and a ready trigger-finger, but you were so far out of your class that you just weren't in the race. They could have blasted you into pieces, then shot the pieces into smaller pieces, while you were still thinking about pulling the trigger. You should just thank me for being your savior."
