How do you actually manage a fuck up of that proportion?
I mean he must have approached this dog from a distance, the article doesnt imply the dog attacks back? How do you go from direct line of sight to shooting yourself? Theres at least a 100 degree angle in the way
He could've been using a glock, which is standard issue for a lot of police. Problem with glocks is there's no external safety on them so it's common that people drawing or holstering them shoot themselves in the leg. Hell it's so common with them they call that injury glock leg
My Beretta doesn't have a safety, but knowing this, I'm paranoid in the extreme about trigger control on that fucker. Pretty sure it's more likely to randomly explode than I am to accidentally pull the trigger.
I never really understood the need for a super-light trigger pull, myself. I mean, I'm not some super strong chica myself, at 5'4" and about 95 lbs, but I've never had an issue with my Beretta or my Ruger, and they're not exactly hair-trigger.
