Lantern, 30, enjoyed playing a private game with his wife. He would pull down his pants, place the barrel of a shotgun against his scrotum, and tell her to pull the trigger.

Truly there are some things I'd just never admit to the Paramedics.....

And if we are really lucky, this happened before they conceived.

Touche.

Parents take note! Catering to a child's tantrum can have dire consequences, as a Caldelas mother recently discovered. When her four-year-old son refused to eat his soup unless she let him play with a gun, she handed it over -- and was promptly shot in the stomach by an accidental discharge.

And can someone explain to me how this was an AD???:confused:
 
Certain beaten-in Glocks can have the slide fly forward by slapping a magazine in hard enough.
 
My favorite was the one where the girl shot herself in the groin and it came out her buttocks. That is just so wrong its hilarious, and the stupidity involved. "Hey a gun. I should aim this at my most private of areas for a laugh! And now I shall pull the trigger because that's funny too!!"

You see, recoil is not the only thing that will displace the breech mechanism to load a round. Depending on the model, inserting a magazine will do that, too.
What model?

Some guns are designed to release the slide if the magazine is slammed in real hard. Kinda stupid if you ask me.
I invited (and am trying to patent) a mechanism that releases the slide through mechanics. I checked to see if something like this already exists and found nothing except a few gun makers trying to pull it off.
 
Reading things like this make me feel like I am the smartest person in the world.....ever.
 
I believe the number one self inflicted handgun wound is using an IWB holster without the actual holster it's self and without putting your safety on. More ball sacks have been blown off that way than by Anna Nicole Smith herself. :p

So call me stupid. I rigged a 1911 to do that and I liked it.

Bang x 7 drop mag slam new mag in bang x 7.

And that, by the way, is why they put clearance cuts (bevels) in the mag wells.

After all, you don't have to slam the mag in when just plinkin' and paper punchin'.

Nothing to it, by the way. Polish up the detent hole in the slide stop, polish up the slide stop plunger, polish up the slide stop and the cutout in the slide. State of the art. No inventing required.

On a related note...

Every year here in Maine we inevitably have a couple of morons who drive their vehicles on ice that is too thin to support the weight. Every year some if not all of them drown. Every year I pray that they have not yet had the chance to conceive children. Every time this happens some legislator proposes new legislation to try to keep them in the gene pool. I don't understand.:banghead:
 
These are just.......sad.

And CZ223 is right, too. Although I thoroughly believe that if they ice never froze enough to support a vehicle, they would keep on splashing through all winter long.

Redneck is not just a southern thing.
 
I think the 1 man ploice shootout is propably the best gem there. Fire 4 shots from your gun, with #4 being into your own head.
 
I would just like to know what kind of person would ask for someone to place the muzzle of a shotgun on their scrotum and pull the trigger...I don't care if I, as well as 50 of my closest friends and family triple checked the chamber...What would be "fun" about this?


"Ya can't fix stupid.":rolleyes:

BTW, the "glock fotay" video just never gets old no matter how many times I watch it. :)
 
I agree with you Black Bear

Now don't get me wrong, I wish no one any ill will but it is obvoius that stupidity has NO limits. Most of the guys falling through the ice are doing so when Ice fishing. Ice fishing it seems is less a sport and more a reason to gather with friends in extremely cold little shacks and proceed to get as drunk as you possibly can.:evil: Take a 5 thousand pound vehicle , load it to the gunnels with men, ice fishing traps and, assorted liquor and drive it on to a lake or river without knowinghow thick the ice is. What could possibly go wrong?:evil:

Nothing that I can think of.:p
 
The shootout is actually something very similar to what we had happen in my city about two years ago. A co-worker was chasing a criminal who fired a round while running from him. Apparently not aware of the difference between single and double action, the next (and lighter) shot went off into the criminal's leg when he started running again.
