re: #518 wlewisiii

Er, I’m having an extremely difficult time seeing how this could have happened as described. I don’t know of any 9mm on the market right now that will just “go off” from being dropped from a height of 1 or 2 feet. This may be the official line that they gave the cops (who in turn gave it to the media) but I can just about bet you that someone was dicking around with the safety off and his booger hook where it didn’t belong.

Firearms don’t just “go off” even if dropped. That story sounded better than “I was just a complete dumbshit”.
