He was giving a demonstration in a school I would assume.

Ok .. it was at a charter school in Germantown .. the kid is ok

Police Officers go into the schools and teach the kids about their job ..

I am still amazed that he pointed the gun at anyone

HELLO

Why keep beating up on Glocks? You pull the trigger, it goes boom. I've run about 1500 rounds through my new 23 since August and I'm certain the number of rounds fired equal the number of trigger pulls. I've never heard of any Glock going off without the trigger being pulled.

BTW, most every revolver on the market does the same thing, some do have heavier trigger pulls, but so what? Keep your finger off the trigger. And, any Glock owner can tell at a glance if the weapon is cocked.

For me it's easy, I assume every weapon is loaded and cocked and ready to fire if I pull the trigger.

If Glocks make you cringe, you should probably find another hobby.

For the demonstration. Here's a transcript right before the accident:

"Now children, WHATEVER you do, DON'T EVER point the gun at your friends head -- like I'm doing now -- and then PULL the TRIGGER!!"

BANG!!!!!
