Ouch! I hope you will be able to make a full recovery. I'll bite my tongue and hold off on the rules of safe gun handling lecture, but I'm a former IPSC range officer and my blood is boiling.:banghead:
 
Ow! Capital OW!

Excrement happens!

Hope you have a complete recovery Cirrus, no wishing a speedy one, that's going to take some time. You take care of yourself kid.

Hey Cirrus,

Sorry to hear about this.

Do yourself a favour though and speak to your doc about putting you on some sort of nutritional supplement. Also try to get yourself into physical rehabilitation as soon as possible.

The longer you leave it, the longer the recovery will take and the less usage you will recover.

Edit: One more thing... I'm not a doctor but you mentioned your hand was in a cast. Just watch the cast. If it's on too tight it can restrict blood supply which can lead to other problems.

Cirrus, I'm sorry to hear of this and I hope you have a full recovery. Don't be concerned with the project. We're not in any hurry.

I'm betting you've gained a bit more respect for your...toy.

Get well quick!!
 
I am very sorry to hear of this..
I do hope you shall heal completely.. And I shall hold you in my Prayers..
May Our Lord, care for you during the healing process..
 
Ouch, that smarts. I know this won't make the situation better, but you could have taken the bullet in a much worse place. I hope you recover fully.
 
Yeow!

Sorry to hear about your hand. I hope your recovery is swift and complete, and that you are able to get back into the game soon!

las vegas csi have it right now
 
Hey Cirrus,

The way I read it I thought your knuckle had been shot out entirely... Good to see everything is still there for the most part.

Is it common practice for the CSI's to take a weapon after an accidental discharge?

Sorry to hear of your injury...but glad it was not worse than it is....could have been a lot worse. The number of times I heard about people shooting themselves in the face or head while CLEANING a loaded gun....I'll just say that some people don't have the brains God gave a goose. Not that this applies in your case....accidental discharges happen.

I was talking to my older brother today and he told me that he found his .380 APC pistol that he had put into his drawer over 3 years ago and forgot about. The last time he had it out shooting at the gun range near Camp Adderberry (old US Army camp in Indiana), he popped the empty clip, loaded the clip with 7 more rounds, snapped the clip in, pulled the slide back and let it spring forward. The gun went off and fired all 7 rounds in less than a second. He took the gun to a gun smith to see what made the gun do what it did....the firing pin had broken in such a way that when the slide was all the way forward, the pin hit the primer in the rounds....without having to have the hammer strike the pin.

Sometimes something as simple as a broken firing pin can cause a fire arm to discharge. Like I said, your accident could have been a lot lot worse.

I hope you have a full and speedy recovery.

And that is why you never, ever have a gun pointed at something you are not willing to shoot. Even when loading and unloading, the muzzle must always be pointed in a safe direction.

Having the muzzle even unintentionally pointed at anything other than downrange is reason enough for instructors to punch cadets in the army.

Can't blame 'em.
