An 18-year-old Florida woman was only slightly injured this week when she was shot by her friend’s oven, police said.

Aalaya Walker was visiting a friend in St. Petersburg Monday when they decided they wanted some late-night waffles, The Tampa Bay Times reported. So Walker began preheating the oven—unaware that her friend, JJ Sandy, 25, was storing a magazine from his .45-caliber Glock 21 in the oven.

The magazine exploded about 9 p.m. ET, spraying casing fragments at high speed and striking Walker. She managed to pick some of the fragments out of her leg and chest and then took a bus to the hospital, where she was treated and released. …

Who stores ammo in the oven?

The same nut who buys a gun to carry concealed that has the ONLY safety on the TRIGGER!

There are PLENTY of videos on youtube of people shooting themselves with guns that have a “trigger safety”.

People are dumb...they defend the safety of carrying concealed a gun that was designed for holster use. (Nothing wrong with a trigger safety used in a holster that COVERS the trigger until gun is drawn)

Darwin effect. Now watch all the nuts defend their glocks. (and pit bulls, and driving without seat belts, etc ad nauseum)

Aalaya Walker should be getting many calls... Lawyers reading this story and wondering if there are any warning labels on the oven stating...Do Not Store Live Ammunition In This Oven
