wow! sorry to hear that this happened. I can only imagine that it must have been a shoulder holster since he was shot in the chest when removing the gun from a holster. Could have been a belly band i suppose. It could also have been that he dropped the gun and was trying to catch it in mid air. Bad thing to do with loaded gun. Let it fall, they have drop safeties you know.
I just don't understand why people do not index their trigger finger when handling a gun.

Its such a simple and intuitive thing to do.
