Ouch reminder for semi-auto folks

[five.five-six]

I did shooting from retention drills with my ported subcompact 1911 about a year ago, I didn’t feel it as it was happening but I noticed blood everywhere. I had little chunks of copper jacket working it’s way out my left arm for months.


Good times!

Is that akin to "Good judgement comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgement"?

Very much so.

Bad judgement is the "hard way" in my version.
Good judgement is the "easy way" in my version.

I once rested a revolver over a flammable blanket and the gap was a little larger than most.

Spectacular.

I've done it twice but never again..
