Re: Husband of TMS .50 victim launches gun control website

I do feel for the injured woman and her family. It is certainly an example of what can happen if the four rules are broken. I pray for her recovery.

That said, "5 miles" seems a very long way for a stray bullet to travel.

Normally the "max range" of a .50 cal is closer to 4 miles. It sounds like the gun must have been fired at a very high angle and the wind caught it, from an elevated location??? Very strange.

Clearly the shot fired was no "miss"... this had to be a high angle shot into the air. For a stray round to reach 5 miles is extraordinary(in a bad way in this case) even if you were trying to do it.
