OK, so you shot yourself in the foot.

Let's review:

The fundamental NRA rules for safe gun handling are:

1. ALWAYS keep the gun pointed in a safe direction.

2. ALWAYS keep your finger off the trigger until ready to shoot.

3. ALWAYS keep the gun unloaded until ready to use.

YOU BROKE EVERY RULE.

CASE DISMISSED!

How did this even get to court? Because he’s a cop? That’s WHY it should never have reached the court, it’s ridiculous!

If you’re going to do some gunsmithing, even something as rudimentary as attaching a light, unload the weapon first - mag and chamber.

The plaintiff in the case, Larry Jones, of Cherry Valley, Arkansas, was injured when his Glock 19C pistol discharged unexpectedly at the shooting range in June 2013, the lawsuit says. At the time he was trying to attach a tactical

Oh, good grief.

4. Don't service or alter your gun when it's loaded.

5. Do not rely on the safety to protect you if you violate any of rules 1. through 4.

This WILL BE how Hillary ends the legal purchasing of guns - it will by her judges allowing ridiculous lawsuits like this to go through.

Of course the NEVER-TRUMPERS don’t really care if they have to give up their guns - as long as they get Hillary elected.

At the time he was trying to attach a tactical light.

And the darned Glock didn't say to him "wait, unload me before trying to put accessories on me, dumbass!"

Yeah, don’t f’around with a loaded gun. Don’t f’around with a gun until you have checked to make sure it is unloaded.
Don’t f’around with a gun ever.

There IS a manual safety on the Glocks - it's called keep-your-dang-finger-away-from-the-trigger-until-ready-to-fire.

I guess everyone who has bashed their thumb with a hammer will now be in court shortly.

I imagine all the trampoline accident folks will flood the courts too.

Too many people have careless moments with their guns that have safeties in the trigger.

If I was Glick’s lawyer I would put the gun on the witness stand. Say ‘your honor I have no further questions’ and invite the opposing counsel to cross examine.

Guns are great. We have a right to them. It’s those evil bullets that kill. Like while you are cleaning or altering your gun.

Boolets, tiny boolets ...

Fired at high velocity ...

Them boolets will kill you and me.


Why use Extreme Shock when you can now have newly created XRBR ammo?

Xtreme Rabid Badger Rounds signal a paradigm shift in home defense and anti-terrorism ammunition. Utilizing the same state of the art technology that puts foam dinosaurs in those plastic capsules that dissolve in hot water, I’ve been able to enhance what would be otherwise boring hollow-point ammunition with a rabid badger core. The exact process is like, totally secret and proprietary.

Upon striking the body of your target, a rabid badger is unleashed through a process that involves a lot of really hard to understand math and physics calculations, and possibly some magic. The resulting stopping power goes beyond devastating, and is actually completely unable to be measured. In every ballistic test conducted, the badger ate the gelatin block, and then quickly turned on the testers.

My cores use very expensive laboratory grade badgers that are 99.9% pure, and 100% insane with rabies.

The shock of a rabid badger bursting from a teammate’s body and then going totally nuts adds a psychological warfare element unmatched by any other ammunition maker in the industry today. To further enhance this, I took a cue from the A-10 Warthog, and painted a scary face on each and every round.

Already in use by Elite Team Fighting and many other highly trained special operations forces around the world, XRBR rounds represent the zenith in small arms ammunition technology. Get yours today!
