    We train so our autonomous responses do not get the better of us. I had a hot shell burning me and melting light my synthetic shirt (it was over 100 degrees outside). I was well-aware of my trigger, it hadn't reset - I can hear it reset as I put it down, and a second shot wasn't going to fire unless I intentionally wanted it to. The trigger before reset is safer than the trigger after reset, and waving-around a once fired and cocked DA/SA auto is safer before the trigger resets - especially in a self-defense situation where a good grip is required and a second shot is imminent or de-cock requires a compromised grip.
    This wasn't as big a deal as it might look to some.

    I'm not saying that what I did was the right thing to do, and it most likely will never happen again because of this experience. Without the slow-motion, this happens very quickly, and it really wasn't dangerous until I bent over more, and even then. My purpose in posting was to give an example of how your autonomous mind can easily control or distract your conscious mind. When it happens to you, you'll immediately remember this post, and possibly save yourself or your neighbor from hurt.

    I had the stones to post this to help my community, not to take abuse from people with little to no experience trying to set the tone of my message. If you troll, post something of yourself doing something positive (or even negative) as a helpful example. I bet none of you trollers can - or can you? Show us and redeem yourself, or thank me for trying to help you. Never mock someone who is trying to teach you something. It exhibits ignorance and self-importance.
    You're missing the point. It's good that you posted your violation of important safety procedures. We take issue with your statement "The trigger was being managed consciously." It wasn't....your finger was on it. And you pointed the gun at your foot.
    As I said, count your blessings. And your toes.
