More Gun Fails – What not to do with Guns
Am Shooting Journal ^ | 8/2/2017 | J Certo

Posted on 08/02/2017 6:58:03 AM PDT by w1n1

Ok, its Hump day, here's your funny consumption for the day.
Could it be that the more gun fails there are, the funnier they get?

The footage of gun fails never seems to stop popping up on the internet. Here's six more minutes to add to the growing catalog of firearm mishaps and bloopers.

Most of these fails happened because people didn’t know how to properly hold the weapon to manage the recoil. They simply lost control of the gun once it fired. (because of fear) See the gun fail footage here.

These idiots need an IQ test before being allowed to handle a gun.

Hmmmn. Several different Muslims (in costumes) also training on shotguns at the same indoor “range” with complete sound system, lights, and cameras.

I could be wrong, but that fridge door flying through the air looks “shopped”.

I’ve watched the real video a few times. Not sure, but it is pretty funny.

At least the girl third from top kept the barrel down range.

There is no excuse for these type of things to occur, though, if a responsible person is present.

And I ain't talking a "hold much beer" type, either.

I've literally been scared to be around some of these types on the public ranges.

I had group ejected once at the P&W public range for muzzle sweeping everybody with a Saiga in one hand and a beer in the other.

Dumb asses.

I had the opportunity to be a part of the Range Cadre overseeing a unit of National Guard soldiers. Let’s just say these “citizen soldiers” were not up to speed with the U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit or any U.S Marine. A Drill Sargent would rip them a new one. Downrange was relative and the very basics of the handling of the M-16 was comical. I have also seen Gomer Pyle idiocy in the Regular Army more than one would think.

Here's the original video that footage was taken from: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7FCY3_5Bg1M

It's a .577 caliber rifle.

**There is no excuse for these type of things to occur, though, if a responsible person is present.**

I agree Sergeant Major, that’s exactly what I was thinking. The person with the camera probably knew exactly what was going to happen and thought it was funny to let it all unfold.

At 3:00 the girl shooting the AK, after turning towards the guy with the camera and he freaks out,
"Sorry. RELAAAAAX. I don't know how to do this."

Never give her a gun AGAIN.

There is no "Sorry, RELAAAAAX" when it comes to gun safety.

Her FEELINGS are unimportant.

He needs to freak her the F*** out, so that she never makes that mistake again.

Guns are not toys to be played with, or play practical jokes on people.

There needs to be a level of trust between the person shooting and the person instructing them.

Never set a person up to fail with a gun.

From that point on, they won't trust you when it comes to guns. Others NEED to be shown proper gun respect.
Practical jokes breaks that respect.
