They don't teach you this in gun safety class: A man in Roanoke, Va., shot himself in the hand while in class -- and then the bullet continued on and struck his wife in the leg.

Bubba,

Are you shooting (no pun intended) for becoming the official iboats news anchor?

Seems as though all parties involved were sleeping through the firearms safety class, including the instructor.

My usual reply to these is nice shooting, although I gotta wonder why he included his wife. His own hand I get, but why shoot her? A loaded .45, apparently in a classroom? I think the instructor learned something also :facepalm:

I bet you aren't the only one thinking that. Hopefully the bullet missed her leg bone.

I will remain silent on the subject so as to keep the thread open for others :facepalm:

This guy is a brilliant instructor way ahead of his time! What better way to drive home the importance of gun safety, than w a real example of carelessness and what can happen if guns aren't handled correctly.........Supergenius?

I wonder if he was letting the hammer down on a 1911, and it slipped? Just spitballing........

When I took my mandated archery hunting safety class the instructor was demonstrating how to mount broadheads, all the time emphasizing to be careful because they are sharp. He cut several fingers and had to stop the class while someone drove him to the emergency room for stitches.
