Overall you shouldn't feel too bad about NDs. It's part of owning guns, and you should get used to them.

It takes a lot to post something like this. Good teaching moment.

Hopefully, you heal fast and aren't in too much pain. Get well soon, OP.

Not an expert but, shouldn't you apply pressure, pack wound, apply hemostatic dressing as a first step?  Tourniquet only upon failure to stop bleeding, and once applied not removed unless by a doctor?

Thanks for sharing, we all need to avoid complacency.

Good luck with your rehab, hopefully not too painful or permanent damage.

My daughter did a compound fracture of her tib/fib. They were sticking out the front of her leg. This was at a ski resort. There was another boy with a broken leg beside her as they waited for their respective rides.

Her remark: "He was screaming like a little bitch".

They splinted her leg with cardboard and plastic wrap and my wife drove her to the hospital. No pain killers. No screaming. No fainting.  She was 16.

The other day....at age 20, in college, she face times my wife showing a little slice on her finger from cutting veggies asking if she should go to the hospital and that she nearly passed out from the blood sight.

What the hell happened to my tough little girl?

About 10 years ago I had an ND. I will never forget it and how worried my wife was. I regret most that I made her upset.

I was pointed at the floor in front of my legs.

I am more careful now.

Who de-cocks  a pistol with their hand over or in front of the muzzle?

This is where my OCB helps, drop the mag and cycle slide three times.

Assume you went to a doctor.

what was that like? did you tell them you shot yourself, were the police or a police report done?

Inquiring minds want to know.

BTW: clerk at a local 7/11 had his hand bandaged up for a few weeks. Few weeks later I pull in next to his truck and(finally) notice a bullet hole in the door. Very evident it was from the inside out.

Ask him about it and yes he somehow shot himself thru the hand and bullet passed thru the door.

I've shot myself 8 times but that's our little secret

Sorry to hear it OP.

I shared my story a few years ago. Bad day at work, mind was somewhere else, & BANG! Luckily I got the blast & not the bullet. It happens, it shouldn’t but it does. It’s a lesson I’ll never forget. It also taught me that some things can wait.

Yeah same when I sliced my finger down the middle with a deli slicer. Someone got my attention and I looked away and continued the task. There's weird fat blobs inside your finger and another fun fact is it does not bleed right away. Very weird day.

Anyways, I'm sure you'll get piled on enough so I'll just quote Mr_H:

"If your weapons firing procedure is the same as your weapons clearing procedure you need to rethink your procedures."

So did the police get involved and what did they say if they were? Around here hospitals call them if someone comes in with a gsw.

... Owie.

OP, when it happened, what did it feel like and how long did it take you to realize what happened?

This may be of interest to you...
