I could have gone my whole life without seeing that.
I will say this though - you have a nice camera |
|
I told you if you did not stop doing that you would hurt your hand.
|
|
Why did I click on this? It said, right there in the title, that it was going to be gross. But I just had to click anyway. Hope it's not too painful, twonami. |
|
Are we going to get the back story on this?
If you have already posted about it how about a link? James |
|
Not much damage for an ND. Must have been a "Glok forty" |
||
|
I am sory that your ND resulted in hurting your hand. I had one too, but only shot the floor with a 22lr.
ND into your hand? Got full use? Heal quickly, and learn that hard lesson. Sory man. |
|
A glock would have taken his hand clear off. |

This is follow-up surgery. The main surgery took place a little over a year ago on March 10th.
This recent surgery was to free up a tendon. Whenever I made a fist it looked like my ring finger was standing straight-up, kinda like flippin someone off The damage was caused by Black Hills redbox 9mm +P hollowpoint 147 gr. |
|
That aint no vagina. I would know. I am an expert. |

|
It's a knee I reconstructed from a guy whose chute got tangled. Nearly a 1000ft free-fall |
|
|
tag for the backstory...
What kind of gun? What lead to the accident? How bad was the pain? Would you volunteer again just to show us how weak 9mm is? |
|
XD 9mm Stupidity and gun cleaning "I swore the gun wasn't loaded" First reaction was "oh shit 1,2,3,4,5 still there" 2 seconds later amazing burning 5 seconds later the pain started kicking in |
|
|
It's damned good thing that NASA jobs have good medical benefits.
Thank you for making me all the more careful with my muzzle awareness. |
|
I'll say it.
If it was a .45 you wouldn't be here to talk about it. Seriously, from the first pic I thought it was a shitty job on some kind of finger surgery........ and then I saw the earlier pics. I guess you're lucky to have all your fingers. Sorry that shit happened. |
|
BS, Someone here did the exact same thing with a .45 black Talon and they are fine. He's going thru pretty much the same surgery as me. |
|
|
Wow!
Those are really big pics... Glad the surgery went well, and is behind you now. |
|
I seem to recall a cover story! Something about a snowmobile or something.
Well I am glad you are doing better. |
|
shhh |
|
|
I was just playin' about the .45 .
You know, a 9mm is like a slap from a little girl. That Doc did a sweet job for the long run though. |
|
380 is a slap |
|
|
Dude, you were/are seriously blessed and you should've played the lottery that day. I'm neither a doctor nor an expert on handgun wounds but, from the looks of some of those pics, it seems to me that you could have seriously lost your entire hand to amputation surgery. I bet it hurt like hell. Oh, I bet the insurance company just loves you by the way. Seriously, please be more careful next time. |
|
Dare I ask........................what was the estimated total cost of this project.
|
|
the first 3 surgeries I had in 05' the total was 15-17K, I can't remember the specifics. No statement yet on the latest but I'll post it as soon as I get one. I'm ultra careful these days |
|
|
I should be ready to go |
|
|
see above |
|
|
Note to self.......always check the chamber.
Was the thought......oh shit i really fucked up ........running through your head? what did your wife/gf say? |
|
I beg to differ. I have first hand knowledge that it wouldn't have. |
|
|
+1 on everything but the gun...... |
||
|
Glock Thur-tay..... |
||
|
Call ARDOC ETA: I see he's already been called. Good to see that the surgery went well, Twonami. 9mm isn't a joke, despite what some folks may think. |

|
they fixed it up nice!
Hope this surgery fixed the last of it! |
