CHAPARRAL, N.M.— Getting a tattoo can be a painful proposition, but usually it's just the needle you have to worry about.
Two men trying to trace a loaded .357-caliber Magnum as a pattern for a tattoo accidentally shot themselves, the Otero County Sheriff's Department said Monday.
Robert Glasser and Joey Acosta, both 22, were treated at a hospital in El Paso, Texas, after the shooting Thursday evening in nearby Chaparral.
Authorities said Glasser was struck in the hand when the gun accidentally went off, and Acosta was hit in the left arm. Their injuries were not life-threatening, authorities said.

So, once it heals, are they gonna tatoo little bullet holes like you see on cars?

Sorry, I wasn't thinking. I hope everything turns out alright with minimum loss of use of hand and arm.

Ah yes, that word "accident". Relieves one of responsibility. Like it was not avoidable. Should be worded "negligently went off". Just like most traffic "accidents".

Ma' man! Raaht on, raaht on! Thank you.

There are no accidents with a round chambered or a key in the ignition but only negligence. You can always park the car or use the piece for a boat anchor.

Absolutely correct! I have educated many anti-gunners over the years about "accidental shootings" and "accidental discharges". They are always surprised that pro-2nd Amendment people are so vehement about proper handling of firearms and so derisive of people who do stupid things with guns.
