Holsterless AIWB Fail

#1

Post by Excaliber »

An Arizona man shot himself in the groin while attempting to keep his gun from slipping out of his pants in the meat department of a 'WalMart.

The slippage problem was apparently occasioned by his failure to carry the piece in a holster.

The negligent discharge occurred when he also violated all 4 Rules.

Details here.

unholstered in the waistband of his sweatpants

I can't believe he made it out of the house, in the car and into the store before it slipped down?????

General Anthony McAuliffe had something to say about that.

McAuliffe was Field Artillery. :patriot:
