"You know, with the amount of equipment we wear sitting in cars with seatbelts and things like that, we're lucky this doesn't happen more often," he added.

The security guard will not be disciplined. Police say he was sitting down and leaning back in a chair when his holster got caught and the gun discharged. People at the show said they were surprised it happened.

Really.....

Dang, the bad luck..........not good even if it was an accident.

In today's political environment ( house, senate , Spkr of House , POTUS , etc,.... ) this CANNOT be good and will be used as an example as why gunshows should be shut down

accident or not, this does not help gun owners

They need to check the gun and holster. Mainly the holster.

Any bets on what kind of piece it was??

I'm guessing Glock.

I think they need to check the security guard. Leaning back in a chair, probably a folding chair?? With a loaded weapon on his hip?? Could have been much worse if he had fallen back on his ***** and the weapon discharged horizontally.

I was wondering how long it would take the Glock haters to come out.

Wow! I guess you can get to comfortable sometimes!!

[NateYJ]

wow!!

I have been in a gun show when a pistol was AD'ed!!! Talk about dead silence. Nobody was injured but a crate of ammo. Scary stuff.

I have yet to see a full size holster that would allow the trigger to be pulled by any object. Story sounds kinda fishy to me.

[Maddox]

I bet it was a Glock and a holster not made for it.
