This was not what I was expecting but is something to keep in mind for sure. Story and pics.

Thank you for sharing. I guess we all will look at holsters a little different now. The area that covers the trigger and trigger guard need to be reinforced so that never happens again. He needs to thank his lucky stars he wasn't carrying appendix.

Try to look unimportant. Your enemy might be low on ammo.

Another good reason to carry a well tuned 1911.

Yowza! That'd get your attention.

Makes me appreciate my kydex and XD with the 1911-style grip "safety."

The side of the holster didn't just bend. Probably been like that for some time.

Just another dummy.

Or just a cheap dummy. I can hear it "That holster is just fine. I'm not spending my money for another one. It should last me a lifetime."

Not sure what makes that graphic. Not like he blew his brains out all over the windshield.

My intention wasn't to impress anyone with blood and guts pictures, but to provide some food for thought for those of you who carry safetyless pistols.
The slightly graphic warning was for those who may have younger kids or wives, or even weak stomached ninnies. Big Grin
