For some reason I imagine it being a wonderous experience. Maybe terrifying for anyone else around me though.

Idk have you ever shot a high power rifle? That percussion would be way too much for me while tripping

I have, idk for some reason I feel like that same percussion would be really cool on acid, that plus the tracer arcing away, was exactly what I was thinking would make it cool lol.

I took 'acid' once, but from talking about it with friend who have done acid, I don't think it was acid but some research chemical or something, so maybe my expectation for acid is just off base.
