Why is Nancy Reagan being protected at taxpayer expense. She wasn’t president. She wasn’t queen.

Cease any protection for her. If she wants it, let her pay out of pocket the actual cost incurred.

While he recuperates, he can watch the DVD "Guarding Tess"

I bet he prefaced it by saying, “This is a Glock 40. I’m the only one, that I know of, in this room professional enough to carry it.”

Don’t go off half Glocked. USSS carries Sig.

“His name was not released. “ Thank goodness for that.

Still, he’ll be picking up a new nickname from his SS buddies. “ol’ shoot TO the hip” is my guess.

Gun Safety Rules

#1 All guns are always loaded.
#2 KEEP YOUR FINGER OFF THE TRIGGER UNTIL YOU ARE READY TO FIRE.

The guy was plain sloppy.

Fun little shooting range there. My husband and I have shot there. Too bad about the shot in the hip.

I blame an idiot.

Why would a Glock fire unless he pulled the trigger JUST like a revolver?

I have been carrying a Glock for 20 years and have yet to shoot myself or ever have one “go off”, what ever that means.

I have never encountered anyone with extensive experience with Glocks to have a problem with them.

If he carries a Sig, my guess is he failed to decock it before attempting to holster it. That is one reason why I don't like double-single action autos like the Sig 226 and Berreta 92 and some older S&Ws. When the hammer is back it has a hair trigger.

Could have just been poor aim.

..." the gun went off as the agent was putting it back in its holster..."

I blame Glock.

Glock or no Glock, the gun went off because its trigger was pulled - probably because said agent attempted to holster it with his finger still on the trigger.

Hope the SS agent recovers soon. It would appear he was getting in some range time before this weekend’s Ronald Reagan 100th Birthday activities. Nancy will be laying a wreath on his grave today.

Happy 100th Birthday Gipper!

Maybe he needs something w/a tracer bar for his right hand and the Glock for his left hand (assuming, of course, that he is right-handed.) He’ll never live this down.
