My wife shot at me today.

I'm a Christian man, but I gave her some negative expletives.

I'm sure.... but you're both ok soooooooo

You need to trade that one, unsafe! Don't know what you can get for a used wife but I would list her on here tonight if it was me.

So, I recently purchased a .38 revolver off an awesome member of the trader. While chit chatting with him I had my wife put the pistol in the glove box. Fast forward in time... I had at some point loaded the pisol, placed it back in the holster, and back on the glove box. Well an hour ago when I asked her to retrieve it; the stars lined up perfectly an whether DA/SA or what the pistol went off aimed at me, and flew out of her hands. AT A RED LIGHT. (My wife is competent in handling a firearm). 158gr hollow point flew in front oft chest between my ORGANS and the steering wheel and hit the door 2 MAYBE 3 inches from my arm. The bullet went through the interior and was stopped by fords patented bulletproof exterior. Guys, my scenario wasn't the safest; but it wasn't the most dangerous either. No idea why I had to ask her to pass it to me at that moment in time; but I learned my lesson. There's no such thing as casually handling a firearm. And no precaution is too cautious. I never in a billion years thought I would ever see a negligent discharge but low and behold. Please be careful with your firearms, and thank god for the day. Cuz your wife might kill you at a red light. God forbid that bullet had exited my vehicle. With the drop of a hammer life could change forever. Again please be careful guys!!!

Ive been shot iwth a 9mm, 38 its like a love tap.

My wife has attempted to kill me via her "cooking" a few times, she has never shot at me.

I mean, let's be honest...lots of folks keep loaded firearms in their glove box. I've had one there on and off for years, so did my father, and his. Handling it at a red light was not God Damned Dumb, though.

Never play with guns

Must have been one of them "shake fire" Taurus guns I seen in a video a few weeks ago...

Bet your ears are still ringing and your underwear can be thrown away.

Had a similar situation bout 15 years ago but it was just me after a hunting trip with an old 357. Cost me a hole in the dash and a windshield and I haven't had a hammered revolver since.

Glad you were both ok.

Sorry, man. But if a bullet exited a firearm and through nothing but sheer luck missed a human by mere inches with no idea how it happened, then by definition, someone WAS doing something ignorant with a firearm.

Investment by both of you in some quality firearms training by a competent instructor will help you identify the cause and make sure it doesn't happen again. Glad everyone is ok!
