Not much to add here, but this guy wins the Darwin Award for yesterday. From the Oregonian:
The mishap occurred Sunday night when Nicholas J. Ellingford, 29, brandished his Glock 9mm in the checkout line at McKay’s Market on U.S. 101 and tried to show it off to a buddy, according to the Lincoln City Police Department.
Ellingford mistakenly pulled the trigger as he stuffed the piece back into his pants, police said. A bullet tore through the gunslinger’s groin and exited his thigh, just barely missing the man’s femoral artery.
Oh yeah, he got a helicopter ride to save his stupid ass, and did he have a concealed carry permit? Of course not.
