Why Use Eye Protection
I used to be the “one” who hated eye protection. It has been years if not decades that I begin to always wear eye protection of some kind.
I seen this photo and it shows you why you SHOULD always wear eye protection.

Thank goodness he is wearing a mask. It would sure be bad to get Covid.

Re: Why Use Eye Protection
Holy crap! I always wear eye and ear protection. In the 80's saw a guy get hit on the hand with a richocet at an IHMSA event.

Wow, that's scary close to being catastrophic!
I hate eyepro too, but wear it.
Pardon my ignorance, but what gun is that?

I should not have seen that.
Having confidence that the gun won’t explode when you pull the trigger I’m sure improves my accuracy.

Re: Why Use Eye Protection
You are probably right. I thought it looked a lot like S&W SD. What throws it off to me is the “Glock Like” trigger.

Carlson got it right, I think.
He should have bought a Glock.

Re: Why Use Eye Protection
The serrations on the front of the slide are different. But on further examination, that also rules out my earlier guess of a Walther PDP. Now I have no idea. I can't find anything with the slide serrations quite like it shows.

Well, whatever it was, it was striker fired. Should have stuck with 1911s.The Annoyed Man wrote: ↑Fri Mar 26, 2021 7:06 amCarlson got it right, I think.

Could have been either a squib load or over powered hand load which with either one would have taken out pretty much most handguns.
