I made a M&P9 turn into a Glock, with pics

[Kegger]

Was over at Mike's place today to get my pistol stippled and do some shooting.

In the course of fire, I went to reholster to transition back to the rifle, and made a big huge dumb ass mistake. All of the years of handling firearms, and dry practice with holsters, and I leave my finger on the trigger as I went to reholster.

Bout shot my damn leg off. Lesson relearned today, you can never holster too slowly. And always keep your booger hook off the bang switch.

Glad you where not hurt.

[Rightwinger]

Geez man....glad your okay.

Where did the round hit? Concrete, ground, ??

[Kegger]

I got lucky, I was still bent over slightly and the round went through my shorts and into the ground.

[kesava]

Thanks for posting. I will definitely think twice next time I holster.

[Guest truthsayer]

Much respect to you for posting that. Glad you're okay.

[DavidD]

Glad you ar OK, you got lucky. I guess we have a new TGO term, M&P Butt.....

Nice stippleing btw.

[TGO David]

Guys like you keep guys like you in business, Medic.

[BigK]

I bet you are glad that you don't appendix carry.

Hahahahahahaha

I bet you are glad that you don't appendix carry.

You ain't kidding, but thankfully, the chest rig and rifle prevented that.

[Jasongar8]

Damn that was a close one. Glad you are ok. Thanks for posting, it reminds us that we can never be too careful.

[Trekbike]

Damn that was a close one.

+1 on that for sure.

Kegger you didn't show a pic from the back side for us to see if the seat of the shorts is a dark brown.

[JeffL]

I thought this was going to be a Kaboom thread. Glad you're okay!

[G27]

Dang, thankful you weren't injured, doubly thankful you didn't post a pic of your undies...

[Kegger]

No brown stain, lol.

I actually wasn't sure what happened til I looked down.

[Guest m&pc9]

Glad to see your ok.

I came close to that a while back. Same thing had my finger in the wrong place while holstering. Stopped just in time. Man thats a wake up call.

[Guest 10mm4me]

You lucky S.O.B. Just goes to show you, no matter how much training you've had, it only takes once. I've had a ND myself. Went to fieldstrp my G19 on the range "cleared it" (or so I thought) got a phone call, got distracted, came back, pointed downrange and pulled the trigger for disassembly. I was quite surprised needless to say.

This is impossible. Only Glocks are capable of this.

[Kegger]

I got very lucky, could have easily ended up with a severely damaging GSW.

I immediately thanked god for only having a small powder burn.

[R1100R]

Glad your ok.

If it had been a Glock it would have torn through his leg. The superior design of the M&P mitigates user error.

[Mike]

Talk about a "Whoa, WTF just happened" situation. I look over and he was looking down at his holster. I looked and saw the powder burn and hole. Scary situation.

We didn't have a med kit out with us or anything. Bad stuff when you are out away from immediate help.

Pretty scary stuff, glad you're alright.

Guess all my Glocks are broken. Mine never do this.

Just glad you're ok... wow... just goes to show it ain't a brand thing...

I saw a guy catch a ricochet in his hand when I was shooting a 3 gun match one time. Not just a piece but the whole bullet came back and went into the top of his hand where you could see the bullet sitting under the skin. He was bleeding pretty bad but thank God there was another shooter there who was a former Army medic that had a med kit with him. He was able to stop the bleeding and they went to the hospital. Since that day I haven't been to the range without a med/gunshot kit with me. It is just as important as eye and ear protection to me.
