Today, my boyfriend and I went shooting. While I was showing him how to properly hold and adjust a rifle, he accidentally pulled the trigger. The gun kicked back and hit me in the face, breaking my nose. FML

Fall

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Same thing different taste

You were teaching him how to shoot?

dont put your finger on the trigger until your ready to shoot. first thing you tell him is that its not a video game. you can get killed. there are no respawns in real life.

this is what happens when women leave the kitchen. & i should know, i am a woman.. with a laptop, in the kitchen of course ..

You know, having the safety on until your ready to shoot would have prevented that.

Why was the safety not on? Also your finger should never be over the trigger unless you are ready to actually fire the weapon. Neither of you should be handling guns unless you get the basic rules of safety down first.

#257 If you question is about the weapon's safety, YOU shouldn't be handling any weapons. One instructs, AKA shows, another with an unloaded and cleared weapon first, then once the student has the action down, does one use a loaded weapon.

I'm from Australia and am amazed by the sheer number of Americans in awe that someone doesn't know how to fire a gun. It's really nothing that unusual here for someone not to know how to shoot. I thought the gun rotting American image was just a stereotype... and all the questions relating to he sex of the person learning and teaching is equally surprising, as I'd that makes any difference.

"totting" not "rotting". Stupid iPhone autocorrect!

Well said. I'm an Aussie too, and reading this is so bizarre!

**** that bitch

WTH - why wasn't the safety on? First thing I was taught when learning to shoot: keep the safety on until you're ready to shoot. YDI

I can think of five of my firearms that don't have safeties. two of which are combat/law enforcement models.

you were showing him? sounds like a pussy

Go and read comment #150.

What kind of bonehead does demonstrations with a LOADED weapon? You're lucky he didn't shoot someone.
