Guns are serious, dangerous tools that command attention and respect at all times. Good there wasn't much damage to personnel or property. Hopefully everyone present learned a lesson. In truth these things can happen to anyone who is too casual with a firearm. I've seen a Marine Colonel blow off three toes with a shotgun while hunting back home, probably more humiliating that painful. Sh!t happens, but that doesn't mean it has to.

Yup, we had a scary incident here today, too. I'll not go into details, but education, practice, and range time is the key, the key, and the key!

Today I was noticing a bunch of little pock marks on the wall adjacent to the accidental discharge. Found a few little bits of copper jacket scattered around on the floor. I'm sure glad the bullet didn't skip off the ground; I have a few boxes of MRE's in the closet right in front of the place he shot!
