The plaintiff, Larry Jones, a police officer from Arkansas, argued his Glock 19C pistol, a compact 9mm handgun, was defective because the design lacked adequate safety measures like a manual safety and a de-cocking device. Jones’ argument stems from a June 2013 incident in which the gun discharged and struck his foot. At the time, he was at a shooting range trying to put a light on his weapon. He said it discharged without a pull of the trigger. [More]The foot again? What is this, Lee Paige Day?
See, you're supposed to mount accessories by bracing the gun against your abdomen with your thumb on the trigger to keep it steady, and point it up toward your face so you can see what you're doing.
Conversely, if you're into decocking, do this and point the muzzle the other way.
Don't these people read the manuals?
This just keeps happening. You gotta watch those Glocks. They have a mind of their own.
