Reminds of a scene from The Long Kiss Goodnight. Gina Davis suggests to Samuel L. Jackson that he hide his pistol in his pants. He wisely responds, "And shoot my [self]?!" She retorts, "Oh, so now you're a sharpshooter?" Ouch.

Chandler police say 27-year-old Joshua Seto and his fiancée, Cara Christopher, were walking toward a grocery store when the shooting happened last week. The gun fired, striking Seto's penis and continuing through his left thigh.

If one carries with holster, is to carry with no loaded chamber, and load as the pistol is leveled.

I'm a native Texan by temperament and loyalty.

I just wasn't born here, but got here as soon as I could and I'm doing my best to come up to speed on the lingo.

I thought I was doing pretty well gettin' along too - that is, until Greybeard ratted me out..... :totap:

This drives a point home for me: those belt clips that are sold that attach directly to the handgun are bad ju-ju. I'm not saying that the guy was using a device like that, but I imagine it wouldn't be terribly hard to replicate the same type of incident with such a device. Yeouch.

My question, which I'm sure will remain unanswered, is if trying to carry without a holster was the issue or was it that he had his booger hook on the bang switch when he stuffed the gun in his pants?
