Rome Man Shoots Himself. "Accident"
- Thread starter Distinctive
- Start date
So why was his gun out of the holster ?
I carry with a round in the chamber and decocked. I want the least amount of steps to think about if I'm in a stressed situation. I will not carry a weapon with an external safety. My booger hook is my safety. With my Sig it is impossible for the round to fire by dropping the weapon. As a matter of fact its impossible for the gun to fire without pulling that 10lb DA trigger, period. That's why I like Glocks, M&P's without the external safeties, DA/SA Sig's. Less steps decreases your chances of screwing up and losing.
Round in the chamber is the way to go...
$20 says he was "cleaning" it. Actually, someone I know shot himself in the leg about 4 days ago while he was "cleaning" his gun. That's really only one of the drawbacks to inexperienced gun owners with Glocks, having to dry fire the weapon to fieldstrip it. (Don't burn me on this one boys, I like Glock's, just stating my opinion)
I guess I'm mega screwed, I generally carry on my ankle and wouldn't have no where near the time draw in that situation.
+1.... I double and triple check before I pull the trigger.
I always check reguardless. With the Sig you don't have to dry fire to fieldstrip which is nice... I still give the champer a visual inspection just so I'm in the habit.
BTW, the video was great. Really puts things in prespective. Also, makes you realize that rocker-draw defensive shooting should be practiced A LOT, along with point shooting as well.
