When I was a tanker I carried a .45, so I already
knew what this poor bastard just found out first hand....there goes the marathon training, ouch:

Wow...that really sucks.

Big Time!

Blueface · 03-03-2010, 08:42 AM

There goes my breakfast.

Man, that had to hurt like hell.

This comment made me rofl...
"Heck that’ll buff out…A hundred years from now he won’t even remember he did it."
My sentiments exactly.

I bet it hurt like a mother. I sawed the pads off three of my fingers a couple years ago and it hurt worse than when I broke my back. There's a lot of nerves in there.

I should add...
"Kids, don't try this at home."

OUCH! Stupid, stupid, stupid.

ucla695 · 03-03-2010, 09:24 AM

Itchy trigger finger.

Gee the first thing I learned in firearms training was treat every weapon as if it were loaded.

I taught my daughter that years before I taught her how to shoot. When we're at the range, it's gone to "You better hope that thing is chocolate."
She smiles and quits mindlessly pointing it at my head. I hope I survive teaching the kid.

CheapHumidors · 03-03-2010, 09:51 AM

Just rub some dirt on it lol. It'll be alright.

neoflex · 03-03-2010, 10:03 AM

This is just proof that not everyone is meant to own a firearm. It's guys like this that give us responsible gun owners a bad name.

He will at least have a place on his foot to hold his cigar after he blows his hands off

SmokeyJoe · 03-03-2010, 01:02 PM

Can't believe he is taking the picture - and not in a hospital.

Quite the souvenir.

Savor the Stick · 03-03-2010, 02:31 PM

Further down on the post there is a link to the real incident. The guy was trap shooting with a shotgun and rested the barrel of the gun on his foot.---BAM!

I wasn't prepared for the graphic pictures...got a little queasy.

Commander Quan · 03-03-2010, 02:36 PM

I had a friend who shot himself in the leg with a .45. While he was laid up in bed he actually carved a cane out of a tree branch that he used to walk with after he could start moving around again.
