    Wink There's always one.

    Is he a member of the UBC? if not sign him up he will fit in nicely.

    You Muppet!!!!

    At least it's not the hand you shoot with.

    Hope it all goes well at the hospital.

    Dont worry about it. I once put a wood gouge through the palm of my hand trying to cut a groove on a very glossy counter top.

    On the other hand, you're never going to live this down. Ever.

    I notice that my PX4 often leaves a pellet in the mag, especially when used with quick successive shots. The gas pressure drops far enough that it can't eject the pellet, but if left for a few minutes, the gas pressure returns as the cartridge warms up. I don't always notice that it missed a shot, so I now eject the mag and turn it manually with my thumb to visually check each chamber. I've been caught too many times like this, so I don't take any chances now.
    Hope all goes well with the extraction.
