•Incoming fire has the right of way

•Friendly fire - isn't.

•Placing a gun back in a holster with your finger on the trigger will cause you to walk with a limp.

All firearms are loaded even if they are unloaded. I hope your friend keeps the use of his hand. And thank god no one else was injured

Hell of a first post.....

My brother in law shot himself in the hand once with a 9mm.... it was a long painful recovery for him.

Once would be enough for me too.  ;)

Hello seuss, critical reminder, and a tough lesson.

EVERY firearm is loaded!!

Hope your friend heals with little permanent damage.

Make him fix your cabinet, when he can...
Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."
Col. Jeff Cooper.

The wound makes me think he was racking the slide.  Know how it happened?  What kind of gun was it?

Also a Previous post on the high road:

The gun was a S&W Sigma 9mm. Luckily for him its was only a flesh wound. The bullet didn't hit any bones or nerves. I'm not 100% sure but ill give you my opinion.  Hes shot plenty of my guns but is a relatively new first time owner. He asked me if he could use my supplies to clean his weapon and of course i said yes. Moments later is when the AD/ND happened. So i Take is he was just negligent on clearing the gun before he began to break it down. Although I'm not sure why it was loaded to begin with. i guess you could call it on of those mysterious "shot myself while cleaning my gun" stories LOL. I believe that's why Springfield changed the XDm to be able to field strip without having to pull the trigger before dis-assembly.

 I bet he jacked the round out of the chamber , He may have diligently checked that the chamber was empty, let the slide forward and then took the magazine out of his "empty" gun.
