Video: Guy Shoots His Hand At Shooting Range

[Hooker]

He should have told his friends, "GO ON WITHOUT ME!" like they do in the movies.

Thats a pretty calm walk off for shooting himself, and then he grips his hand... WOWW

 

[J10]

Hope he has a girlfriend or else he's going to be lonely

He could put that new hole in his hand to good use...

Epic fail. It doesn't seem like he was a very experienced shooter but still you would think his friends would at least show him how to grip it better.

That'll buff right out

His grip wasn't an issue, the pistol had a front vertical grip that dismounted the weapon in mid burst and resulted in the shooters hand being in an unfortunate position.

I would think that that hand would be attempting to pull the weapon down, and that when the grip dismounted, his hand and the grip would've been traveling towards the floor while the recoil had the gun rising.

Regardless, he did take it like a man.

EDIT: I maximized the video, and I see it now. Recoil pushed the gun to the rear on him. Seems to me like he was probably holding the gun forward via the front grip, and so when that disappeared, the recoil shoved it back towards him, while his off-hand went out towards the front.

Anybody notice the target?

...practicing how to hit a moving target?

Apparently it was in the "bob" mode ...wonder if they had a "weave" setting too!

Just goes to show that guns do shoot people. Surely he wouldn't have done that to himself. And, assuming that the vid is real (I'm a skeptic always), he did handle it pretty well. Too bad they don't show him passing out from seeing his own blood

I love it how he flags his buddies too. It's like shooting himself wasn't enough....

Full auto pistols are so cool.

At least the pistol looks alright.

Sure took him a bunch of shots to hit his hand directly in front of him... wait til his next lesson.

 

[dead2rights]

He took getting shot like a man

Just walked away, didn't run, cuss, or freak out

I know right? Even though it was just his hand I guess it can happen just like in the movies. I know you should always try to keep a cool level head at all times. Personally if I ever got shot center mass, thigh or arm I feel it is my God given right to freak the heck out!

Aaaaah I see that now. The first time I watched it, it was lagging and looked like he just rested the front loosely on his hand. That would really suck.

Glock makes rifles now???

Thanks for the explanation. Seems like an unfortunate experience.
