Woman shot in the butt with .45 at Bass Pro Shop
Well, here's an odd one -- watch out for those negligent discharges...
"A Chino Hills man who brought six guns to test fire at Bass Pro Shops accidentally shot a woman in the buttocks inside the store Sunday.
The 52-year-old man, whose name wasn't released, was checking in the weapons at the front desk when he noticed one of the guns had the hammer cocked. He reached for the .45-caliber weapon and it fired.
"(The bullet) exited through the bag, traveled about 40 yards away and hit a female shopper in the left side of her bottom," said San Bernardino County sheriff's spokeswoman Tracy Dorsey.
The round penetrated the woman's clothing and gave her a minor wound, but didn't penetrate. The round fell to the floor."

Oh yeah, unfortunately this happened at our Rancho Cucamonga Store. I found out about it last week and it's true.

Not me...those people are going to rise up against us with their implements of enslavement...you could get run over by a lawn mower in your sleep pushed by Paco or Pedro...or beat to death by a toilet brush...or suffocated with a trash bag...or cleaned to death by an old woman...or maybe they will just paint something dirty on your house using refried beansOakRidgeStars wrote:I know that guy, he mows my lawn![]()

Hit in the ass at 40 yards by a .45 and it pretty much bounced off? That must be one tough tushy.

Re: Woman shot in the butt with .45 at Bass Pro Shop
Wait for it. A change in store policy is likely to follow.
This is a fine example of a failure to follow basic firearms safety, specifically #1 and #3.
As an aside, I have to ask how Bass Pro Shop ensures its employees know how to clear every type of firearm that comes in the door?
This is a fine example of a failure to follow basic firearms safety, specifically #1 and #3.
Even with all those "safety" policies, the booger hook still found the bang switch.Customers who bring weapons to the store are required to check them in at the front desk, where an employee places the firearm in a metal box to make sure it's not loaded. They put a gun lock on the gun before a customer is allowed to bring it to the range, or to carry around the store to shop for gun accessories.

I would love to see this metal box that determines if a gun is loaded or not. I thought only people did that.
