“I ain’t buying it. I’ve been hit by 9 Makarov ricochets from 10 feet. Wouldn’t hurt a mouse. A .380? Sumpin’s wrong.” I agree.. there’s something fishy here.

I just read it quickly, but I think it said he pointed it at the tank, didn't fire, then pointed it at his head and fired.

Thanks doc.

I clicked on the link and read this:

The teen’s girlfriend refused to handle the loaded weapon, so he pulled out the gun’s clip and aimed at a butane tank, but he “thought twice” about shooting it and instead pointed it at his head, Treviño said. “He fires one time and shoots himself in the head,” Treviño said.

No ricochette invloved at all.

You read correctly Doc.

“He fires one time and shoots himself in the head,” Treviño said.


That round in the chamber is often a surprise to the uninitiated but once they're initiated its usually too late. Oh well ... definitely a Darwin Award candidate.
