Imagine— horrible as it is— shooting yourself in the mouth with a handgun.
The gun-reversed-in-hand, thumb-on-the-trigger method would “work” “best”.
And your experience in suicide comes from where???

Having to investigate 13 suicides by firearms in my 30 years with the SO, thats the first time i’ve seen that. It would be interesting to know the actual trajectory of the round.
It’s been sometime now but I think I read somewhere that Vince Foster was left handed.
I am trying to picture that (ugh)... and I still don’t see that as being the “best” way - although I can at least visualize it. Maybe it is that it isn’t the Hollywood version of shooting yourself... I don’t know.
If you held the gun upside down, or even sideways, you could hold it in the conventional fashion.
Gruesome to speculate on this, but it does spark my curiosity
Something I noticed in the picture: the index finger is relaxed and straight. Would the fingers of the hand straighten like that in the throes of this sort of death?
