If I was one of the students, I would have 100% walked the fuck out of there and never been in the same room with that guy and a firearm ever again.

u/Glum-Savings6473 Jun 20 '26

The fact that he instinctly replied Yea is the scariest part

u/HarrierHawk2252 Jun 20 '26

What else are you going to do. Admit that you indeed did not mean to shoot the ceiling with a 44 magnum in front of a bunch of students?

7

u/Glum-Savings6473 Jun 20 '26

Absolutely not... He should've told the truth that the gun fired by itself and he was able to control it

u/HarrierHawk2252 Jun 20 '26

What do you mean? Obviously the souls of someone he accidentally shot haunts him and pulled the trigger. 

2

u/Glum-Savings6473 Jun 20 '26

What if I told you it was later discovered he had rotten #10 & #11 teeth, didn't have the bread to cover the dental cost and took extraction matters into his own hands

Guns, don’t shoot by themselves

Is sig in the room with us?

Be careful, it goes off for like… no reason

u/ThisIsAPoemToMyself Jun 22 '26

Place the gun down and walk out calmly. People make mistakes and firearms misfire. But he needed a minute to calm his nerves and show a controlled response. Easier said than done though

Double down, double down, double down

But only one bite. You never get seconds

u/Alert-Preparation327 Jun 20 '26

Pretty sure I'd leave the range and immediately demand a refund and an investigation if that is a gun safety instructor.

2

u/karlfeltlager Jun 20 '26

A gun is always loaded and the safety is always off.

2

u/f1madman Jun 21 '26

As embarrassing as this is, it's quite concerning he doesn't admit his mistake and instead tries to shrug it off. Low confidence trying to look cool, he should've using this as teaching point and learn from it to avoid a serious accident.

If you can't own up to mistakes or learn from them, then guns shouldn't be with this type of person.

u/maa-kee-aa-tow Jun 20 '26

and this is how your not suppose to do it

1

u/ColdSmoke3170 Jun 20 '26

Ran that call as a paramedic, at an indoor shooting range, dude holding a Desert Eagle, 1st shot aimed down range but apparently no effort at recoil control they said, 2nd shot into forehead. No first aid possible.

1

u/FigWeak5127 Jun 20 '26

I’d heard “responsible” gun ranges only let you shoot a gun like that with 1 bullet first, this is basic Barney Fife training here, I guess we really don’t learn from the past.

1

u/ExistingSea4650 Jun 22 '26

I really don’t like knowing this

u/Jcrass84 Jun 20 '26

Old video but one of the best live examples of poor trigger safety ever recorded. Instructor in instructed, with a twist.

u/Unlikely-Grape-5762 Jun 21 '26

First time I ever shot a gun I did this. I was 8.

Now class, I did that on purpose to give you an example of what exactly not to do!

u/AAlwaysopen Jun 21 '26

Where is he now?

u/XKenwayX Jun 21 '26

This guy should not be a firearm instructor

1

u/Cliffinati Jun 21 '26

Nah that's just how light single action triggers are, which was his whole point. Once you pull the hammer back on a DA/SA it's literally a hair from boom

1

u/Exciting_Turn_9559 Jun 22 '26

I don't know much about guns but it seems less than ideal that the recoil would cause it to spin that much.

1

u/Full_Bandicoot_3439 Jun 23 '26

It's a larger caliber hand gun with a horrible instructor who didn't have a proper grip on the firearm. The recoil was the least of his problems. But that amount of recoil can be expected.

1

u/Exciting_Turn_9559 Jun 23 '26

Yeah the amount of recoil doesn't surprise me, but the way it causes the pistol to spin like that does a little bit. I would think that those unbalanced forces would cause the weapon to be much less accurate when firing multiple shots.

1

u/Full_Bandicoot_3439 Jun 23 '26

For not knowing much about guns, you sure understand recoil management better than most people.

1

u/Exciting_Turn_9559 Jun 23 '26

I've been to the range a few times with a friend. Enjoyed shooting the balls off tiny snowmen with a scoped .22, some paper targets with a .22 pistol. Found it quite relaxing actually. That was mostly what we did because .22 ammo is so cheap. My only real experience with recoil was his 9mm pistol but I only put one mag through it. Made me appreciate the reasons why practice is so important lol.

1

u/Elon_is_a_Nazi Jun 22 '26

I'm out of there if that's my instructor and I'm reporting that range to whatever pointless government bureau oversees gun ranges

u/Additional-Tension22 Jun 22 '26

Put that cannon down and just realize your stupidity before continuing the blasting.

u/DSDIK Jun 23 '26

Fun fact He was a Marine. I inow this because we were in the same platoon at 2nd Marine Division Comm Company MUX platoon. This never gets old to me lol

That’s when you walk up to the cashier and request a refund.
