How long does it take for someone to die after they have been shot in the stomach?



A prize for anyone who gets the time right.

Shot in the stomach, as in the organ or simply that general area? Was the wound bandaged or is he lying in the street bleeding out?

The organ, and not bandaged.

~30 minutes before he looses enough blood to be fatal.

15 miniutes before the bloodloss and acid get em.

Hmm... I think it actually can take up to two hours

*is more curious as to 'why' someone would want to know....*

The question is irrational and fails to take into acount the large number of variables involved with such a silly equation.

Shot in the stomach with... a blow gun.

Shot in the stomach with... both barrels of a shotgun.

Shot in the stomach with... a poorly maintained .22 handgun.

Bloodloss is relative to the wound, and as such you can expect someone shot in the stomach with a .50 calibre machine gun an point-blank to live considerably ... less long... then someone shot from twenty meters with a single 9mm round.

The answer:

Zero seconds - roughly 6 hours.

Oh, yeah... you've also gotta consider the fitness level of our shot subject, his ability to tend his own wounds and....

Well, you get the point.

i r teh win.

I'm going to guess several hours.

Also depends on ammo being used. Hollow point or solid shot. Buck shot, etc. Or if your using bigger guns, High Explosive or Armour Piercing.
