I friend of mine works in a bar. She just told me a story of what happened on Thursday:
Her, and her boyfriend were asleep. Their dogs started the 'something is wrong, AND close bark.' He kept a .22 semi-automatic on the nightstand, not my first choice, but that is what he had. He reached for it, and it hit the floor, discharging. The round hit him in the right arm, passing through, but hitting a artery.
She had enough composure to get a towel, put direct pressure on it, and call 911. The medics said he would have bleed to death if she didn't slow the bleeding.
Most of us know how to treat a wound, but does your spouse/girlfriend? It could save your life, it did his.
