I just got a whole bunch of suppressors in that will be demo units. I needed host guns to try them all out, and I also recently decided to re-evaluate my everyday carry weapon. To that end, I bought some new stuff to play with.
Today was the second time taking most of the new stuff out shooting and I had an H&K USP Tactical .45 blow up in my hand!
While reloading a mag, I had taken off my shooting glasses. I stepped up, shot 2 rounds, and my wife looked over (to take a picture) and said "Hey, you need your glasses." I thought: "Yeah, I really do. I'll put them back on after I empty this mag". VERY next pull of the trigger and BOOM. I get a face full of powder and plastic fragments. My wife snapped a picture about 1/2 a second after. You can see a look of oh-(*!%& on my face, a cloud of smoke around my head, and a piece of the magazine at my feet! My hands were numb for 5 minutes or so, and the gun is destroyed.
Tonight's prayers include: "Thank you for the continued use of my eyes and fingers!"
