Clearly this grandpa needs to hug his grandkids and not be doing these things.

I will note that clip/magazine is very difficult for it to just fall out of the gun. The eject button is very intentional.

Also, even if the magazine is out, there is still one live in the chamber and can still hurt someone.

Mag button is placed above the usual firing grip to be intentional, my guess is he was so eager to draw down he squeezed the whole handle. Incompetent and shouldn’t be carrying, absolutely but..there’s one in the chamber and a gun is always loaded.

Can we just fucking kill the Nazis again already?

Honestly, I don't blame these people. I was once brainwashed as well (1x Bush Sr, 2x Bush jr) so I understand what he is going through.

They really do think they are the good guys and view everyone else to be lesser than him. And that's why a normal conversation with these people usually snaps them back to reality.

I came to the comments to say this exact thing. This is actually a leading cause of negligent discharge incidents. People eject the magazine and assume the gun is unloaded, completely forgetting about the round in the chamber. There’s a reason soldiers are trained to actually look into the chamber.

From the back, mind. I'm sure you know but its an important detail.

You're also allowed to use your friend's iPhone if he's not there to argue.

I remembered being stupid at 18 and owning my first handgun. I was too young and stupid back then and almost got banned from the shooting range because I was shooting sideways like a "gangsta".

There was a off duty LEO that was there that day and offered me some quick lessons on how to handle a gun. It was the best firearms training I have ever had.

His grandkids want nothing to do with him cause he’s a racist dirtbag

That's assuming this idiot actually chambered a round when he had the clip in.

For someone larping like this, best believe he has one in the chamber AND refilled that missing bullet in his magazine.
