Also who the fuck doesn't drop the mag and clear the weapon prior to cleaning it?

Well, apparently that guy on both counts, but who else?

Lots of people, happens all the time.  Basic firearms safety rules avoided, plain and simple.  

It happens so much that Smith and Wesson incorporated and actually counts the sear disconnect as a selling point to their M&P line

How else are you going to know if it's loaded?!  Seriously, gun manufacturers need to stop making guns with closed chambers and guns that need to be empty to be cleaned!

Must have been a 40 S&W, if it was a 45 ACP his arm would be gone.

Takes a special kind of stupid, but it's all too common. Never understood why people do this, but I bet he don't do it again.

Complacency, it's a natural human trait and believe it not it can happen to anyone. Thread like this are good because they remind us of this.

How the hell do you not check your gun to see if it is loaded before cleaning it?
Now they can add you to the 30,000 shot since NEWTOWN.

I f-ing hate the small yellow lever of awesome. Forget about each time and end up swearing in front of the kids...

Did he keep his whole hand? One of our members posted a while back about his dad(or maybe father in law) shooting himself in about the same place with a .380, lost a finger and the metacarpal behind it. Ended up with a hand like a Simpsons character by the time they put the salvaged tissue back together.

Oh it was empty. He loaded it when he was finished and then pulled the trigger. Logic disconnect somewhere...

No, the real moronic thing is pointing a gun at yourself and pulling the trigger. I don't care if it's loaded or not - I ain't doing it. People say it happens to the best of us, well not this one. You won't ever catch me pulling a trigger with a gun pointed at my hand

been a few members here who have shot themselves. I hope they chime in with their stories, too.

Is that a man or a Sasquatch?  That is one hairy motherfucker. The hillbilly camo is particularly fitting as well.

Does he do youtube videos where he checks clear by pulling the trigger with the muzzle in his palm ?

I just don't get how anyone just pulls the trigger, not to mention the rest of it.
