When the accountants get guns

Oops!

Oh no. That's too bad.

Reminds me of the video of the "safety instructor" teaching trigger awareness while blowing a hole through the ceiling. Then proceeds to act like he did it on purpose. "See? That's how quick it can happen".

Did he shoot himself? Is that what the screenshot is attempting to say in the title?

No shot by another agent

Something similar happened to my mother years ago. My dad had an overnight trip scheduled so my mom, who kept a .45 in her nightstand at the time, got it out to check things before going to bed. Yep, you guessed it, "unintended discharge." The slug went through the headboard, through wall, and embedded itself in a newel post in the railing at the top of the stairs across the hall outside their bedroom. (She was alone at the time so, no, nobody got hurt.)

Anyway, my dad decided he was going to leave that slug in the newel post as a constant reminder NOT to put your finger on the trigger unless you're ready to pull it. I don't know why he thought this was a good idea. Daddy's always paid a high price for his condescension and he's been married long enough to know this.

(Disclaimer: This story kept intentionally short for Dale Moser. There's more to it but Daddy doesn't come out smelling like a rose on this one, so...)

Sounds deserving of it's own thread. You know... For educational purposes.

Hard to imagine where the IRS will ever find 87,000 new agents who can be firearms qualified. Heck even the Chief of Police where I live says it's near impossible to keep all 100 officers qualified and therefore still on the force.

Who knew Alec Baldwin started a new career? I guess he had to do something since Rust went into the toilet.

My old man is in his mid 70s now. He has been around firearms his entire life but with age comes carelessness. Went to clean a loaded weapon and blew a hole in the table my mom was sitting at. No injuries but the point is it can happen to anyone. I always follow FLETC clearing procedures so it CANNOT happen to me.

Drop Mag. Lock back slide. Observe empty chamber. Place pinky inside empty chamber. Remove pinky. Look away. Observe empty chamber x2. Place pinky inside empty chamber x2. Weapon all clear.
