Sunday is the 3rd anniversary of my uncle's tragic and fatal accident. Details are in the original thread, I'm not going to re-hash it here. (Summary: My uncle had been drinking, went to go to bed, picked up his 45, stumbled, reached back to catch himself on the kitchen counter, the gun cammed upwards against his finger, and put a 45 hollowpoint round through his spine. The bullet + bone fragments severed his Aorta. He died on the kitchen floor in front of my aunt and his two children.)

I'm posting this thread up with a link to the original, to provide a reminder to folks to put your guns away before you start drinking alcohol.
 
Thanks for the reminder -- being intoxicated/impaired and handling firearms is not responsible.

Keep it safe this holiday season, we want to see you all here next year!
