Here's my original gunshot x-ray from 1974, and newer one from 2004 against monitor w/ today's Rush thread behind it:

It's a .32cal, stopped just 3/8" from spinal coccyx. Missed all organs, nerves, veins/arteries, bones etc. I still carry it.

Damn.
Does it give you a lot of trouble, now, with changes in the weather, and getting up and down, or hip movement?
I'm guessing they didn't want to take it out, due to possible nerve damage and infections, if they did surgery around the rectum at that time?

Wow, you were lucky, but I would refrain from posting pictures of your coccyx in the interwebs ☺

You still carry it? Holy Mother Of God!

Look how close it came to your spine.
