I never knew Aj was so suspicious.

I'm beginning to wonder if he even believes any of my posts.

 

Frank,

My take on the wound is that it went through soft tissue, not bone. It sounds to me like it just grazed his shoulder.

I say 9mm vs .22 for shooting yourself without dying because nobody carries a .22 caliber handgun. How many times have we heard of someone being shot 10 times with a 9mm and being released from the hospital a few days later, expected to make a full recovery? The 9mm is great if you want to make a bunch of holes in someone, but it doesn't have impressive stopping power.

The story made me think of another one from a few months ago. A young fella said he stopped to help a stranded motorist on a rural Minnesota road and they shot him. He drove to the hospital and after a few days, admitted that he'd shot himself to get out of serving in Iraq. He too used a 9mm and shot himself in the shoulder.

As for you, Raoul: I found my T-50 star bit so you're in the clear

 

2 cents sure does go a long way

Guard: FBI Suspects I Shot Myself

 

I can't wait to see what comes of this. If the guy shot himself, he should've just finished the job.

 

AjRagno, very impressive.

I admit I thought you went way too far out on a limb that time.

Funniest post in the thread goes to Bloomquist, it tickled me pretty good.
