NewsWatch [image] Stupid Gun Tricks: Florida Concealed Carry Permit-Holder Reportedly Shoots Self In Leg At Wal-Mart
» by NewsWatch on July 12th, 2008 Permalink

The fact that this man is probably a “law-abiding gun owner” with concealed carry training didn’t seem to prevent him from shooting himself.

Hopefully he’s all right.

In the Pensacola News-Journal:

A man accidentally shot himself in the leg Friday evening in the Wal-Mart on Pensacola Boulevard south of West Nine Mile Road, authorities said.

The Escambia County Sheriff’s Office responded to the store about 9:20 p.m.

The man, whose identity was not available Friday evening, had a concealed-weapon permit, and the weapon accidentally discharged, a Sheriff’s Office dispatch supervisor said.

The man was transported to West Florida Hospital. The extent of his injuries was not available Friday evening.

By the way, this is the sort of person the NRA’s Marion Hammer wants to be able to bring their guns to work at Disney World in Orlando.
