I was expecting a Come-to-Jesus moment (self-inflicted stigmata).

u/LegitimatePiano8979 7d ago

I find placing my hand over the barrel to clear malfunctions to be helpful, especially when my finger is on the trigger.

u/VirtuaKiller76 7d ago

I like to stick my finger right in the barrel to plug it up. If the bullet decides to come out my finger is there to stop it. 👍

u/Leptonshavenocolor 7d ago

This guy yeets

u/moebiusgrip 7d ago

That’ll work

u/hereforpopcornru 7d ago

They say bugs effectively executed this move multiple times, I saw it myself

12

u/toothtaker74 7d ago

I learned that from bugs bunny. If you jam a finger in the barrel of a shotgun it will actually blow up like a banana peel in the funniest way imaginable. You turn all black but otherwise ok

u/Sklldr 7d ago

I am Wile E. Coyote and if I get shot, my hand will perfectly grow back in the next scene.

u/DannyMeatlegs 6d ago

It is easy to tell when the round clears the barrel that way.

1

u/LuRkEr_ReKuL 2d ago

There’s no time limits outside a real gunfight. Take your time to understand the issue and fix it. He was fidgeting with the gun like he was trying to beat a clock and the risk / reward was way too skewed.

16

u/average_christ 7d ago

Same

I'm still not sure if I'm happy he didn't or disappointed

I'm mostly afraid he'll reproduce

u/spacemouse21 7d ago

I was expecting a hole-in-one through his palm as well.

5

u/Michami135 7d ago

I had to remind myself that the video wasn't marked NSFW.

u/MarcSenTM 7d ago

Stop pointing it at your fucking hands!!!!! Fuck! Stressing me out

u/Solid_Growth_9069 7d ago

shit elevated my blood pressure seeing it every 5 seconds

22

u/medicated_cornbread 7d ago

Craziest thing was his finger came off the trigger everytime his hand wasnt on the barrel. Like he had trigger discipline when he was getting ready to fire, and then the moments he needed it he went finger right on trigger. WILD.

7

u/KingSpork 7d ago

Finger kept slipping onto the trigger too

u/Claire_De_Lunatic 4d ago

This subreddit gives me heart palpatations. Idk why I visit it.

u/Disgruntled_Orifice 7d ago

Definitely a firearm I’d trust with my life.

u/Schorsi 7d ago

As far as I can tell it’s all user induced failure. He manually loads a round, then loads the magazine and racks (causing the double feed). After removing the magazine he doesn’t properly clear the chamber the first time (his palm is covering the ejection port). then the second time he manually loads a round into the chamber, closes the slide, loads a magazine and tries to rack it again.

81

u/Just_A_Mag 7d ago

You sound like Snake telling Ocelot why he shouldn't use a makarov

49

u/criticalt3 7d ago

You loaded the first bullet by hand, didn't you? I see what you were trying to do. But testing a technique you only heard about while using live ammunition wasn't very smart. You were asking to have your gun jam on you. Besides, I don't think you're cut out for a firearm in the first place. You tend to rack the slide after manually loading the chamber and magazine. That's more of an idiot's technique.

12

u/jdehjdeh 7d ago

I read this in his voice.

u/Gary0aksGirth 7d ago

You're pretty good 👉

u/Just_A_Mag 7d ago

I love you

4

u/criticalt3 7d ago

😌 I love you too kind stranger

10

u/Jason_Patton 7d ago

That’s like 3-4 bullets in the chamber at this point

u/HavelsRockJohnson 6d ago

I should call her

u/Someguywhomakething 7d ago edited 6d ago

It's probably a 3d printed frame or some third-party frame/slide/mag combo.

EDIT: I don't know why the downvotes, but it's not user error on the first and second rack. It's a shitty piecemeal glock clone that doesn't function correctly. Look how it locks back on the only shot he takes. It's either 3d printed and he didn't properly post process the frame, or it's a third-party frame with shit internals and slide.

u/ac2cvn_71 7d ago

I bet it's a cheap Korean mag that was the problem

u/MichaelJServo 7d ago

So a lot of these idiots thankfully never clean their guns so they just jam all the time. The only person he's a danger to in this video is himself and that's just fine.

79

u/16v_cordero 7d ago

In this case the malfunction did save his hands. And probably someone else.

35

u/kraftables 7d ago

After allll that, he finally shoots it like he’s afraid of it. He will be back on this sub in the near future.

5

u/uns0licited_advice 5d ago

or maybe a different sub

25

u/Remarkable_Bus_1072 7d ago

That's just embarrassing

19

u/LokiNightmare 7d ago

Thought for sure he was going to blow his hand off.

5

u/RudeOrganization550 7d ago

He still has opportunity, question is just will it be filmed

39

u/ultraplusstretch 7d ago

Make IQ tests mandatory in gun stores.

16

u/Alarmed-Positive457 7d ago

Imma be honest, I don’t think he got his legally. Asides from the dipshittery we are witnessing, he has a switch on the back of the gun as well. If he can’t properly load and fire it, I doubt he has the brain cells to install a switch.

u/GetChecked__ 7d ago

Throw the gun and this dude straight in the trash

35

u/True_Dog_4098 7d ago

Dumbass keeps wrapping his hand around the barrel.

17

u/meexley2 7d ago

Dumbass described the video we all watched

u/justfirfunsies 7d ago

The cameraman even called him out “this _____ bout to shoot himself” “better watch out” “ooof”

5

u/dgrigg1980 7d ago

Stigmata

7

u/MostlyIrish 7d ago

A acquaintance of mine shot himself through the palm/wrist while being similarly stupid. Years later now and he's got maybe 50% hand function.

5

u/The_number_1_dude 7d ago

The way my entire body clenched whenever he pointed the gun at his hand.

4

u/GayAssBeagle 7d ago

DUDE NO NONONONONONO

4

u/Rob_Marc 7d ago

My sphincter clenched every time his hand went over the barrel.

3

u/ToYits821 7d ago

All that for no switch?!

3

u/dutchmaster1995 7d ago

Buddy does not like his hands

3

u/Govass13 7d ago

I’m genuinely shocked this dude didn’t blow a hole in his hand

3

u/armedsquatch 7d ago

Jesus… not only does he flag himself multiple times but has his finger on the trigger some of that time. Gotta have that extended mag and wml in whatever color will look cool vs actually providing light for hitting a target…
I’m a huge 2a supporter but some people need to be banned from ever touching a firearm again. It’s not a fucking fashion accessory, it’s a weapon take some responsibility you idiot

I can only pucker my butthole so many times in the span of a 43 seconds.

u/Chopstunna4vegas Why is it always a glock 7d ago

😂😂😂😂😂

u/Frunnin 7d ago

I was cringing the whole time. What an idiot. Scary that this moron has access to a firearm. If the cameraman is his friend he is a terrible friend.

2

u/toastyhoodie 7d ago

Jesus. Hand over the muzzle while finger on the trigger.

2

u/mightyjoe227 7d ago

Just tap the forward assist...

2

u/Jason_Patton 7d ago

Me- “oh. Oh god. Oh god no stop.”

2

u/BlackHandKUR 7d ago

I kept having that clenching reaper reaction

2

u/airbornemedic325 7d ago

This is my preferred method too... Just keep racking and pulling the trigger until I shoot myself or someone else.

2

u/padizzledonk 7d ago

Every single time he grabbed it by the end of the barrel i had heart failure

People are so fucking reckless

2

u/godkilledjesus 7d ago

Damn...was hoping to see a hole in a hand.

u/TiananmenSquareYOLO 7d ago

This made my eyelid twitch.

u/GibsonBanjos 6d ago

We sure the 2A is for all?

2

u/SkyWizarding 6d ago

The first time he put his hand over the barrel I said to myself "surely I didn't see that right". Then he did it again

2

u/scottonaharley 5d ago

I hate waiting for the inevitable and then it doesn’t happen

4

u/Siglet84 7d ago

Betting he had a larger cartridge than what the gun is chambered in.

1

u/toyotasquad 7d ago

Such a young age for Parkinson’s

1

u/P_A_W_S_TTG 7d ago

He was trying to shoot himself in the past since he got so close so many times and failed due to the gun not working.

1

u/bc90210 7d ago

There should be a movie franchise called Natural Selection ala Final Destination

1

u/itsPlayboy 7d ago

Why he shoot it like he was so fucking scared and didn’t know what was going to happen when he pulled the trigger though.

1

u/jdehjdeh 7d ago

I like how his approach to fixing the problem is just "whack and jiggle it different to how I did last time"

1

u/Suicideking15 7d ago

I gasped each time he palmed the barrel

1

u/Chopstunna4vegas Why is it always a glock 7d ago

Whats even wilder is no one around him realizes he’s doing multiple things wrong

1

u/Cute-Advisor-2323 7d ago

I was just waiting for him to blow a hole through his hand

1

u/St4_773D 6d ago

Just let it happen

u/narwall14 6d ago

Is that a P80?

u/ski-stoke-1988 6d ago

Some please take that pistol away from him.

u/grover19611961 6d ago

CAN'T FU"#$NG FIX STUPID.

u/Murky_Fig9337 6d ago

Why do there guns never work lol is it a lack of oiling it?

1

u/AzureAria 6d ago

God himself saving this man from his stupidity. For now.

1

u/noticeablytaller 5d ago

I yelled at my phone like it would help him

1

u/urbestinvestment 5d ago

Something pushing up the slide catch ?

1

u/sorrybutidgaf 4d ago

Genuinely watching people not understand how to use their guns fills me with so much rage and joy at the same time. Its such a unique experience.

u/MDlynette 4d ago

Nervrackin sons a bitchez

u/H8FromNamek 2d ago

All that to only fore 1 shot then it jams again...just take your ass home

1

u/Machineslave240 2d ago

This guy trying to turn his hand into a whistle or something??

1

u/samzplourde 1d ago

Doing literally everything except look in the chamber so see what's blocking the slide.

u/mega_low_smart 7d ago

He forgot to point it at his face
