Throw away for very obvious reasons. I had my first ever ND yesterday. I’m shooken up.


Bright and early in the morning. Ready to go to the store on my day off and I grab my pistol out of the safe. Grabbed the holster and put it in the holster.As I put it in the holster it went off. I don’t know if my finger slipped. I don’t know if I caught the trigger on the side of the holster. I wasn’t devoting my full attention to the loaded firearm I was putting on my body.I. Don’t. Know.I of course had it pointed in a safe direction. Straight down and angled in front of me.BOOM.I whipped my head and closed my eyes my ears were ringing. I saw the flash and the smoke. My wife jumped up horrified.We have no kids thank god.I’ve been the one to teach young adults to shoot, preach gun safety and it happened to me. I’m a wreck from it. It’s almost a depression that it happened. It was my fault I wasn’t paying 100% attention.I shot into the wall connected to our closet and it made it into the vacuum on the other side of the wall and stopped.Again thank god. It didn’t go nearly as far as what I thought it would.Everyone was ok. That’s all I cared about. It stayed inside my house and I found the round to confirm.About 15 minutes go by and police are cruising down the street to what I assume they were trying to see if anything crazy was going on. I shut my mouth and didn’t say a word to them or make it known.I’ve been through my CCW class. I do 3 gun, I used to work as a armed guard. I have countless hours of experience and training and it happened.I’m ashamed, I’m embarrassed. I’m upset. Please handle your guns with the utmost respect. I was complacent for 1 second and I lived one of the biggest fears all of us have.Be safe everyone. via /r/CCW https://ift.tt/2OtCMWj
