Only the military and the police can be trusted with guns!

Car:
Chevy Suburban

Description:
Sobering shot of an SUV that got lit up by mistake, by an F16 driver near the air-ground gunnery range outside Dugway, Utah.The 'light paint and body damage' is the result of a one-quarter-second burst by the fighter's 20 mm gun, which fires about 3000 rounds per minute. An estimated 70 rounds left the gun; the results are as you see here.

What's even more astonishing is - the SUV was being driven at the time. The driver and the guy in the right-hand passenger seat escaped with some light glass injury to the driver, and a dislocated shoulder to the passenger. The shots hit the gas tank, but didn't explode; the gas just leaked out.

The passenger who normally sits in the back seat had just moved to another vehicle.

The vehicle was on the military reservation, but a full three MILES away from the gunnery range.

Big ******** oops, boys in blue. First the whole nuke scandal and now this? You need to learn what the ******** is going on.

All of the tires went flat?
...

Also, what kind of s**t is that?
I'm sure there's a number of safety switches you have to flip to engage the 20 mil. Or at least one covering the trigger or button.


And who said 'Minor paint and body damage'?
Sure that's minor! Compared to a car hit by a 105.

It was probably rock shrapnel from the bullets hitting the ground that blew out the tires.

Yeah, he INTENTIONALLY shot that SUV. What he forgot was rule #3... BE SURE OF YOUR TARGET...

So what, thought he was on range and had a moving target thrown at him?

Didn't think too far into that one I guess.

I thought rule 3 was to keep the finger off the trigger till you are ready to fire.

I've always used that as #2. Not that the numbers really matter, so long as all the rules are there.

That was a few years ago, I remember hearing about that.

Yeah as long as you have all the rules that's what is important.

Though the wording changes, rule #1 is universal, I think.

I took some test once, a test that actually counted for something important, where you'd fail if you mixed up the numbers. I forget what it was for though...

I always thought it was
1. its always loaded
2. dont point a gun at something you aren't willing to destroy
3. finger off the trigger till you're ready to fire
4. be sure of your target and what lies beyond

Move #2 to #4, slide the rest up to fill the gap, and that's how I do it. razz
