I’m sure the shell casing was painful, but if she wanted to take her mind off the pain, she should have found some other method.

Uh No. The pistol did not just accidentally discharged. She pulled the trigger and shot herself. I know the feeling of a hot cartridge stuck in various places. But I was never stupid enough to not render the pistol safe and / or deal with the cartridge.

Then again I was a welder and had to deal with such fun things such as slag dripping in my ear or other more ‘private’ areas.

As a lefty, I always had similar problems firing the M16, until the A2 came out with the built-in deflector.

[[Woman hurt in accidental shooting at Crystal Lake gun range]]

Why is this even news? Accidents can’t happen? What about the mriad carpenters who accidently shoot themselves with nail guns, staplers, cement nailers, accidently drill through hteir hands, saw their fingers off, or the plumbers who accidently saw their fingers off, burn themselves, lose an eye, or electricians who accidently electrocute themselves, or stick themselves with wire, or or or

The only reason this ACCIDENT is getting coverage is because a firearm is involved, and the reason it is is to ‘prove how dangerous firearms can be’- Yeah? Probably more people get shot with nail guns accidently every year than handguns, or cut themselves with any manner of sharp instruments, or or or

Pain is weakness leaving the body.

**Lord, make me fast and accurate. Let my aim be true and my hand faster than those who would seek to destroy me. Grant me victory over my foes and those that wish to do harm to me and mine. Let not my last thought be “If only I had my gun”; and Lord if today is truly the day that You call me home, let me die in a pile of hot brass.**

Amen

The only thing accidental was the hot casing going between the peaks. Everything that followed was negligence.

I’ve had brass land there - taught me to pay more attention to what I’m wearing to the range! But fortunately had enough sense to put the gun down before removing the errant brass.

She’s lucky she shot herself in the leg and not the head.
