    Arrow UN instructor from France Shoots His Thigh @ S&W re-cert class

    Would be interested to see the AAR on this accident (he's fine according to the article). Was it improper trigger finger placement, or a Serpa holster? etc.

    Failed drop safety.... Do the French even know how to re-holster? (Sorry, too easy.)


    Maybe the UN should control their own guns before they try to control mine.

    Seriously, hope the guy heals quickly. Being a gun instructor at the UN must be like being Abstinance Only counselour at the Kardashian household, or Ozzy Osbourne's speech therapist- they are just never going to get it.
