Let’s see..... “Hey Harry, did you see my new Glock 40 cal.”? “You know they don’t have an external safety. It’s sort of built into the trigger.” “Oh no, I didn’t place that much pressure on it.”
I hope they also take his pilot’s license.
The story told...is only half the story. There are numerous details that they failed to question or put into it. I’d bet that the pilot had the gun out and was simply playing with it...and it dropped to the floor. As for why a bullet was in the chamber...that would be fascinating question to ask. The pilot? He’ll be suspended for at least 30 days...while they investigate...and he’ll get some type of demotion....I doubt they would fire the guy.
