Showing Original Post only (View all)Yet Another Responsible Gun Owner Shoots His Own Penis [View all]
This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Autumn (a host of the General Discussion forum).
I keep hearing about these responsible gun owners who are so very careful with their dangerous weapons, so I can only conclude that this guy did it on purpose!
A man in Macon, Georgia accidentally shot himself in the penis while attempting to holster his gun last week.
According to WMAZ Channel 13, the man was parked at a gas station and was attempting to put away the .45 caliber pistol when it discharged, striking him in the groin. The man immediately drove to a friends house.
According to police, the victim dropped his pants to find that he had shot himself in the penis and that the bullet had exited his body through the buttocks. As he disrobed, the spent round fell to the floor.

That's a pretty useless tool of argumentation. Every person is responsible...

Do you even comprehend the extent to which you have no idea what you're talking about?

A concealed holster would potentially point the gun at your nether regions.

Add to that the fact that he was sitting in the car while trying to get the pistol in the holster.

"As he disrobed, the spent round fell to the floor." Is that what they call it now?
