Hey, might have to go pull up the video of tex grubner shooting himself in the leg with a kimber 1911....:tu: :tu: After all it was a 1911 he shot himself with...so that just goes to show how dangerous the 1911 really is...:humm:

mexican carry is called mexican carry for a reason..and yep it will kill you...and as far as the leather holster, it was worn out & it was the owners fault for using a old worn out holster...where the leather had softened to the point of being dangerous...again noting to do with the pistol...

You can chalk up every single AD/ND to stupid human tricks, no gun will shoot you or anybody if a human is not involved...it's like saying a hammer will smash your thumb...cuz it does not have 3 safeties...

Just for gunman......:tttt: :tttt: :tttt: :tttt:

I shot myself! Original Upload! - YouTube

I was wondering how long it would take you to post that vid! I'm willing to bet more people have shot themselves or someone else accidentally with a 1911 then ANY other pistol. Either while thumbing the safety off on a "cocked and locked" pistol (with their finger on the trigger... kinda like numb-nuts up there) or attempting to thumb the hammer down. There's a reason why the military changed to manual when it came to carrying a 1911. HAMMER DOWN ON AN EMPTY CHAMBER.

I could swear you blamed a holster for a bunch of them just last week...:tttt:

Human error for not replacing a worn out piece of equipment.

The best part about this is he says he had been doing it all day with his Glock, when he switched to his 1911 he shot himself... Someone need sto tell him he messed it up, the Glock is supposed to be the gun that goes off and makes you shoot yourself!

Actualy the vast majority of military guys carying the 1911 now carry in condition one...round in the chamber, hammer back & safety on...

HOWEVER, they train daily...shoot more rounds in a month than gunmanwill in 5 years..and they shoot/train hard...

The 1911 was designed to be carried in condition one...that is the safest way, a empty chamber will get you killed...but it is a weapon that requires training..and not just playing on a range and then a skill set that the average gun owner does not have, or want to achieve...

Did I forget to mention.....in 1989 I saw my 1st 1911 ND/self inflicted gunshot...a Navy seaman guy shot himself in the thigh...accidentally while on the range qualifying on that weapon...

Was really rather cool....:c: :c: :c:

Go navy :jump: :jump:

Accidental Discharge of a 1911 in a Thumb-Break Holster

On January 19, 2008 I had a negligent discharge of my pistol. It's a Rock Island full size 1911.

Actually, I was referring to back when it was first introduced. Agreed, John browning had intended the 1911 to be carried in condition one, but all the "accidental" discharges involving it forced the military's hand into eliminating condition one carry some 90 years ago, at least in some regiments. Not sure when it was 'officially" reversed. Please don't ask for my source on this. I read it in one of the ump-teen articles the gun magazines were churning out for the 1911's 100th birthday.

This is not a problem with glock its a problem with stupidity get a holster that covers the trigger and the problem would be solved
