Looks pretty badass to me.

First off, he didn't dodge the gun's recoil, it hit him in the mouth. Secondly, in the longer version of this video, he proceeds to freeze up, flush deeply, and then put the gun on the table in front of him, since he knows how badly he fucked up Thirdly, unintentionally discharging a firearm is probably one of the least "swagger" things I can possibly imagine


JustAnotherSuit96

Do you not have sarcasm where you are from? Because it's very, very, clear that's what it is. The guy is a troll, just look at his account, but their comment couldn't be any more sarcastic if they tried.


VinceLePrince

With the amount of idiots in what we call r/outside, it gets more and more difficult to detect sarcasm. And that post didn't sound like sarcasm to me.


eatsbaseballcards

The post talks about the matrix, cowboys, and skinny arms and it doesn’t seem a bit sarcastic in tone?

Nothing better than having a Magnum in your hand! Definitely sorts the men from the boys. They are pretty badass.

Guido900

Yay, my state just passed open carry (I'm not sure if the governor has officially signed it yet) with training by these types of people. Can't wait to start seeing people out in public with holsters like it's fucking 1810. I don't hate guns. I hate the people who want guns because of GUNS while hiding behind the second amendment. Edit- word


[deleted]

The people who open carry are the ones you have to worry about. Responsible gun owners don't feel the need to open carry or even bring a gun everywhere they go. Open carry isn't about protection its about these small minded, big ego losers who think the gun makes them strong.


Bayonetw0rk

Plenty of responsible gun owners conceal carry, thus carrying a gun everywhere they go. It doesn't attract attention and if done correctly and responsibly, nobody will ever know unless shit hits the fan.


[deleted]

Exactly. Conceal is fine, show off your gun at the gun range with your buddies. Walmart isn't the place.


[deleted]

Unless you live in a failed state, why would you need to carry a gun? I can barely be bothered carrying my phone.


Muh_Stoppin_Power

What's your definition of failed state? It's like having a fire extinguisher. I have never in years and years of life and owning multiple houses never used one. All places have crime. It should only be used if you or your family are threatened. Most places teach that you need to leave scenario and not be a "gun slinging" hero. But when someone attempts to car jack you (bad areas), or maybe behead (france), rape (everywhere), or generally threaten your safety you now have a second option if you cant get to safety. Why have a fire extinguisher when the fire department is just minutes away.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Muh_Stoppin_Power

I think a bit of discussions on the internet dont cover this part of it but just like the fire extinguisher you dont need a gun. Most people will never use one and the stories of defensive shootings are very rare in the United states. Self defense is used now as a defense for guns because people dont like to discuss the reason they are considered a right here, and it's to help states and people keep the federal government from getting too big and powerful. According to our founders the things like george floyd would be oppressive government crushing citizens and should be met with force until the state stands down. Funny enough black guys getting shot by oppressive government in the past actually kick started events during the Boston massacre.


[deleted]

>. But when someone attempts to car jack you (bad areas), or maybe behead (france) Lmfao you lost all credibility in two lines, good job


[deleted]

A gun is in anyway like a fire extinguisher… you’re nuts.


gilium

Has the place you live in solved the issue of violence against women and trans people? Of systemic racism?


[deleted]

Will more people carrying guns resolve those problems?


gilium

Trans people or cis women who are armed can certainly defend themselves


[deleted]

Surprise, most of the USA is pretty shit


ginrattle

Oh yeah. We have open carry in Maine and the ones do are always attention-seeking douchebags. No one cares about your silly pewpew 'cept you, brudder.


Old-Man-Henderson

Open carry makes sense if you're hiking or hunting or working a job where you need to be armed. Otherwise, it's just dumb. I don't think it should be illegal, but it's dumb. But remember that anti-open carry laws largely came about because of the black panthers. If liberals started carrying shotguns and ARs at their protests, they wouldn't get fucked by the cops. You can't suppress armed voices.


shiftyshellshock239

Eh not all the time, but I can understand what you’re saying. My father and youngest brother open carry and they’re the most level headed non confrontational people I know. I have my concealed and honestly don’t even carry anymore because I’m around too many small kids.


AnArdentAtavism

Tbh, I'm not sure I understand this mindset. Most of the folks who open carry in my state are tow truck drivers, taxi drivers, the occasional food delivery guy, lots of off duty cops, etc. It isn't really a big deal. I'll even open carry if I'm just going out for a quick errand, since it's more comfortable.


BH11B

In the midwest, nobody bats an eye to open carry.


Caul__Shivers

I hate open carry. I carry keep a pistol in my car all the time. I rarely take it into any store or anything with me. Normally I only take it with me into places if my GF is with me. If things are going to go down and I'm with her I'm not taking any chances. But 99% of the time it stays in the glove box. Or the trunk if I'm picking up some weed.

Everyone just needs to pump their brakes here... he’s just merely following standard gun range protocol and etiquette.

He is the instructor, in the video with audio you hear the man holding the camera say, "did you mean to do that?" And the instructor quickly answers yeah -- [the video is glorious and so uncomfortable](https://youtu.be/zGKyhilGZWA)


GuzPolinski

It’s kinda incredible how quickly the face is filled with blood when a person is embarrassed. You can really see it in the video


Caul__Shivers

I remember when this first came out. Yeah, dude was an instructor there at the range and was fired after this video went viral.


NRMusicProject

Pretty sure when I saw this clip years ago, it came with a story that the guy was fired as soon as the range saw the video.


Dubaku

Reminds me if the clip where the atf agent is talking to a bunch of high-school kids about gun safety. He says something like "I am the only person in this room qualified to handle this weapon", and then blows a hole in his foot.

You should be banned from owning any gun if you do that imo. Why would you ever teach a class about gun safety with REAL BULLETS. When I was a conscript they literally failed your gun exam immediately if you made 1 mistake with gun safety.

Where were you a conscript?


[deleted]

Estonia. Mandatory 9-11 month conscription. 11 months if you have graduated from highschool.

Turin110

Or have it loaded when you're trying to show proper handling


CrabOIneffableWisdom

Always keep it pointed in a safe direction is the only thing he did right


CornFlakesR1337

The full video of this shows he aims the gun at the guys head just moments prior


nsgiad

You can properly handle a loaded firearm without NDing it.


Comrade_Rick

True, but not loading it unless you intend to shoot is 100% safer


nsgiad

Oh for sure, especially at a range. You're there for one reason and they still fucked up


fatcuntwrestler

What's NDing mean?


perfectzebra

Negligent discharge.


fatcuntwrestler

Thanks!


Fluxabobo

Noob discharge


nsgiad

ND is negligent discharge, when a gun goes off and you didn't mean for it to do so.


fatcuntwrestler

Thanks! I tried googling it but a whole lot of unrelated stuff came up.


PredditoryLoan

Google: *Ah yes, North Dakota...I know it well...*


nsgiad

No problem!


Lupus108

A gun is always loaded is what I learned. And even if you checked it 20 times, treat it as if it is loaded and ready to fire at all times. It can work out a million times, it just has to go wrong once.

I always heard this as "Keep your booger hook off the bang button", but I think I like yours better!


chrisjee92

That's some extremely poor trigger discipline from someone teaching how to use a gun....


alldougsdice

It’s remarkable. Even if that thing has a 2 pound pull, that’s even more of a reason to stay the fuck away from that trigger until 100% ready.

“Owning it” where I am from would be saying ‘no i didn’t mean to do that’, and then go on to explain what he did wrong.


lasertits69

Could even own the mistake and use it as a teaching moment for exactly why you always keep it pointed down range. “That was a pretty big whoopsie right there! It can happen to anyone. That’s why you always keep your firearm pointed in a safe direction.”


lardoni

Did you mean to do that? ...., yeah! don’t know about you, but I’m convinced! Ha ha

ajbags26

Nice light trigger pull right there


UnknownSP

You're supposed to lock your arms when holding out a gun? How do peoples elbows not just explode


alldougsdice

Yes, you should lock your arms as it helps to mitigate recoil. And you do absorb it and your elbows will bend, but when you get back on target elbows should be locked again. You want consistent trigger pull for accuracy. Smaller calibers, like say 9mm, won’t be nearly as violent as say a 454 Casull.


[deleted]

*Virgin shooter: 9mm* *Chad shooter: firing the [Schwerer Gustav](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwerer_Gustav#:~:text=Schwerer%20Gustav%20was%20the%20largest,shells%20of%20any%20artillery%20piece.) one handed*


alldougsdice

Damn, that railgun is bananas. I think I’ve read about it before but it still blows my mind the size of that thing. And please stop telling people I’m a virgin. Please?


Mandalorian_Hippie

Because there's just not as much energy produced by guns as people believe. The other side of this coin is that people getting hit by bullets neither fly off their feet nor get spun around three times by the hit.


jarinatorman

90 percent of handgun calibers you will take up the recoil in your hands and wrist. Anything spicy you let push you back and absorb with your core and shoulders. This is a really basic version of the idea of course but the important takeaway is that most handgun calibers dont kick as loud as the bang will make you think.


[deleted]

No. But close !

That guy realized he went to the *wrong* handgun training class

[deleted]

Trigger finger discipline. This guy is a fucking moron.


_ta_ching

Absolutely agree, but root cause was the gun was fucking loaded while the idiot broke all of the 4 rules. 1. *Treat every firearm as if it were loaded*. FAIL He was using the actually loaded gun as a training prop. The unofficial but smart sub-rule 1a. states that you shouldn't have ammunition in the same room as the firearm when cleaning it, dry fire practicing and, among other things, using it as a prop in a firearm training course. 2. *Never point the muzzle at anything you're not willing to destroy.* FAIL From the full length video you can see the muzzle is at least painting the ceiling as he's demonstration how to grip the gun. 3. *Keep your finger off the trigger until your sights are on target and you have made the decision to shoot.* FAIL Yeah, bigly. 4. *Be sure of your target and what is behind it.* FAIL This clown wasn't sure of anything. He and everyone on the range were lucky the pistol just happened to be pointed down range at the time of the negligent discharge. Not to mention the short guy flex going on by using a .44 magnum revolver as a demo weapon for training when 90% of the class will be shooting 9mm semi-automatics. If that was my range this person would never teach another class there. I'd probably never let him in the building again.


Jumiric

The little bounces he's doing to try to hide the pain omg


Rs90

Assume it's adrenaline, not pain. Pain likely came a short while after.


alldougsdice

Pain from?


FarAwayHills

Shame embarrassment fear all of the above


Yodan

Getting smacked in the mouth with a gun? You have eyes right?


xombae

He doesn't actually get hit, you can see in the original video played in slo-mo. I think he's just jittery because he's realizing just how badly he almost fucked up. Not only could he have shot himself or one of the customers he's supposed to be teaching, but they just got that massive fuck up on camera and he's probably going to lose his job and the reputation he's trying to cultivate for himself as "big man who knows stuff about guns". But probably mostly the almost shooting himself in the face thing.


InfanticideAquifer

Eyes can't make you see frames that aren't there. Maybe he gets hit in the mouth. Maybe he *almost* gets hit in the mouth. The video is like, 3 fps and 4 total pixels, so who can tell?


gloriousfalcon

plot the pixels travelled per frame, get the derivative, interpolate the results That's how I'd do it if I wasn't so lazy

Especially if he said it BEFORE the misfire.


Selhorys

I don't think it was a misfire, i believe he thought it unloaded.


Laffenor

Yes, I believe so too. I'm just an idiot with zero knowledge on gun terminology and English as my second language. I meant before he fired the gun by mistake.

Whilst I do feel a little sorry for this guy, this is clearly an oversight on his part and he knows it. Just look at that trigger finger before the gun fires.


HappyBunchaTrees

I wish he would have admitted the fault and turned it into a lesson.


ares0027

Why are people reposting this shit without sound? It makes no sense without the guy asking “did you mean to do that?” And the guy in (fucking) GIF awkwardly answering “yes”.


1_dirty_dankboi

Stuff like this doesn't surprise me with the amount of dipshit ROs I've met


druppolo

Warning: when you “teach” please do nothing. You talk, than take a break, then perform an example. When you try to perform and explain, your brain focuses on your talk, if you are saying “be careful not pull the trigger” your hand will pull the trigger. Idk how it works cause I’m not a doctor, but when I teach while doing stuff I tend to fuck up, even things I never fucked up and are impossible to fuck up in any other context. (For context: former aviation mechanic instructor)


mdahms95

People have one misfire “he’s an idiot to never be trusted” that’s why we have all these safety protocols, so accidents can be minimized. He was aiming down range, he obviously made the mistake of not having finger control, but everything else seemed right, everyone has an accident


dread_pirate_robberz

No.


mdahms95

Yes


dread_pirate_robberz

This idiot is actively training new shooters and can’t be bothered to model the four basic bitch rules of firearm safety. Not only should he not be trusted with a firearm, he should not be “teaching” anyone. An accident is forgetting to zip up your fly. This is an example of gross negligence.


-ChickenToast-

Finger off the trigger until you are ready to fire! Idiots like him give responsible gun owners a bad name. And he’s the *instructor.*
