Figured as much. The ad's are kinda funny. They make it seem like grazing somebody's toe with their shells will send the victim into immediate shock. Ahh.. the glory of advertising.

Coincidentally, I just took a pistol safety class today.  

That guy put quite a few people in danger.

Gtora: I know that. But sometimes you do stupidities. I _tried_ to give her advice on how to handle it.

Needless to say I haven't given her a gun after that. :)

I always make everyone either come to my place or I go to theirs and give them a class on gun safety and my firearms features to make sure they are ready for the range.


Most of the times I have taken people shooting, I end up barely shooting making sure they dont do stupid stuff lol.

:eek:

Did he shoot himself in the foot?  He was limping.  But he carried on talking!  OMG!  You know he HAD to have been in "shock".  Then the crowd getting jittery and one woman yelling "Put it down" in the background.  Holy moly batman!

That guy will never live that down though...lol

Glocks are notoriously unforgiving to carelessness due to their simple operation.  I own a Glock19 and I am very very aware of how simple it is to shoot intentionally and how easy it is to screw  up and shoot unintentionally

This guy made a simple mistake.  Thankfully he didnt hurt anyone else and a whole room of people saw firsthand how dangerous firearms can be when improperly handled.

Its a glock they have no safety other then that little level on the trigger.


That is somehow more safe then JUST a trigger.

In Marshalls excelent study of all recorded gunfigthts a second or follow up shot increase the chance of stopping the bad guy a whopping couple of percent.   you were far better off simply hitting them good and square with an effective round.

LMAO! I've had that exact same experience at the range before :)
