The Oregonian/OregonLive reports the mishap happened Sunday night when Nicholas J. Ellingford brandished his Glock 9mm in the checkout line at McKays Market on U.S. 101 and tried to show it off to a friend according to the Lincoln City Police Department.

Police say Ellingford mistakenly pulled the trigger as he stuffed the weapon back into his pants. Police say a bullet tore through his groin and exited his thigh, just missing the mans femoral artery.Me thinks alcohol was involved. (Here comes the Glock jokes)

BTW, I love my Glocks, but I never ever recommend Glock to others. If you need to ask which gun to get, you have no business holding a Glock.

I too EDC a G-19.
Interesting that the article doesn't blame the gun as is usually the case.

Mr. Ellingford on a happier occasion. Looks like he must have shot off some fingers too.
