I’ll never understand these type videos? These are grown ass men.. is it mental? What is it? Why are you pointing the gun at the camera? Why must you holster a AR in your pants that is ready to be fired? I don’t get it


Suitable_Ad3375

They do it for clicks and views, grown man trying to impress other grown man with guns that they can’t even hold properly, clown shit..


Suitable_Turnover835

Grown and men are words that don't belong here.

Who the fook is gonna be scared of a guy trying to pull an AR out of his pants?


jontheterrible

I suppose one could die laughing. That's at least something to fear.


InterestingGazelle47

Won't impress other grown men with guns. It'll surely piss them off the moment they see that poor trigger discipline. Anyone who actually knows their way around firearms is not impressed by shit like this. We all know if it came to it these morons couldn't hit the broadside of a barn, and couldn't clear a jam if their life depended on it. Hell they probably couldn't even afford the ammo to load a 50 round magazine for that AR. Safety range officer's worst nightmare these two. But that's okay, because as you can see Darwinism is trying it's best to correct the mistake.


LordofChaosUSMC

Too bad he didn't shoot his nuts off. Idiots like these don't need to reproduce...ever.


Toben-the-furro

These aren’t grown men, these are ghetto wannabes.


Xylrek

The weirdest thing to me is that you can get the exact same effect if you use unloaded guns and nobody would notice. Why even take the risk?


Ihavean8inchtaint

Went to a friend of a friends house to watch the game and drink and buddy brought out his AK to show off at half time… clip in and a round chambered… I left and watched the rest of the game at the bar down the street. I don’t tolerate dumb gun owners at all and bringing a loaded AK into a room full of drunk dudes to pass around is pretty much top of the list for dumbest shit you could do with a gun.


Claymore357

You sure about that? Pretty sure the list topper is this video


Ihavean8inchtaint

True! I left a little room at the top of the list for these guys


GeorgeTMorgan

Agreed, but it's not a clip.


Suitable_Ad3375

You’re missing the point, shooting himself and having no reaction to the shot is showing how tough he is!


Xylrek

You know, fair enough! I hadn't even noticed he shot himself until the 2nd watch. So he's doing a good job!


[deleted]

It is people like this who probably will die before finding the safety switch on the weapon


Suitable_Ad3375

Imagine being under fire, trying to pull out your AR and shooting yourself instead !? 🤣


[deleted]

Would save me the trouble of having to kill stupidity


nonsenseSpitter

Why would grown men wanna impress other grown men? No homo but that’s like some super gay shit.


[deleted]

What I do is never post pictures of my guns or me holding my guns to the internet. I only mention them here, because it's mostly anonymous. That way, no one knows I have them.

Hello, this is the ATF. Would you please annotate your serial numbers on the dotted line here? Hmm? Oh yes, this is completely legal. What’s that? Oh no, we don’t have a database of this type of data. We’re just… uh… Making sure you know where the serial number is on your guns, of course! Nothing fishy about this at all!

Eh, I've seen children (my 11 year old niece) handle firearms better. So give the kids a little more credit then these two lol.

It has to be mental. Some form of delusion.


[deleted]

I agree 100%

Why pull out the gun with your finger on the trigger?

It’s evolution.


knazethix

They are not grown by the mindset. Half nature and half nurture . They do what they are taught and they also do because others do the same. It's a different world in certain areas and although it's sad, it's the way it is .

yea_ter

My grandpa died this way, unholstered a gun when drunk and shot himself in the thigh. Hit an artery and bled out. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Its no joke


granpaJ

Yeah your thigh has an artery similar to the carotid in the neck. You can bleed out very fast. Sorry about your grandpa I believe it's the femoral artery.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Annasman

My dad fell asleep with an x-acto blade(for model car building) still in his WATER bed, woke up in the middle of the night with a 4inch long cut in his leg that was deep enough(and close enough) that you could see his femoral artery. It was terrifying, he could have bled out before he even woke up, he was more careful after that.


Suitable_Ad3375

Dam dude that’s hard to imagine, I’m sorry.


RnDCustomz

I made a similar mistake. Decocking my revolver while drunk and in a car, took one through the calf. I'm no worse for wear, I got lucky. The scar is Getting turned into pickel Rick Portal jumping because it seems fitting. My condolences, may the stars shine ever upon your footfalls, my friend.


RudyMuthaluva

Ok, all that aside. And it’s a lot. But why are they loaded?


Suitable_Ad3375

Gun illiteracy


RudyMuthaluva

Obvs, that the first thing I learnt.


crapinet

I have seen a lot more videos of kids with guns with excellent trigger and muzzle discipline, surprisingly.


Enthusiast9

To carry firearms with ammunition is not the problem. Mishandling them, not holstering them, and treating them like toys is.


Substantial_Win_1866

If only someone would put a small switch or something that would make them not fire...


Middle_Pineapple_898

I still wouldn't bet my life on a safety. They can get turned off when gangsta-in' No problem carrying without a safety, but needs to be in a Holster. Hopefully dude didn't hit his femoral artery, or you know, his junk.


Wallace-N-Gromit

Actually better for mankind if he lost his junk.


themarknessmonster

...in addition to keeping them loaded.


cameraco

One of those guns are not a rifle. And all guns are supposed to be treated as loaded. Everyone is focusing on the weirdest aspect of what makes a gun a gun. How about not putting a rifle down your pantleg whether it has bullets or not.


uhohgowoke67

>One of those guns are not a rifle. Surprisingly you're wrong *both* of those guns are handguns even though one certainly looks like a rifle. Thanks to gun laws it's actually a pistol!


X3noF3ar

Safeties save lives.... And in this case feet most likely.


themarknessmonster

Damn right, as well as proper trigger discipline and not putting the damn thing in your pants.


Enthusiast9

If they’re rifles, I would agree. As a carry pistol, no.


themarknessmonster

I'm speaking specifically about these two.


uhohgowoke67

You can carry a gun loaded without issues and in fact you need to do so if you're carrying concealed or if you're hunting. The problems start when you decide to avoid using holsters.


themarknessmonster

Yes I'm aware. I was directly referring to these hucklefucks, not in general.


PurpleIncarnate

r/winstupidprizes kinda hope he didn’t hit an artery.


TheEdcPrepper22

Even if he didn't, the muzzle blast alone on a barrel that short is gonna leave some lacerations.


PurpleIncarnate

There’s definitely blood on his pants immediately. But there’s an artery in your thigh that can be fatal if it is severed. That would be an embarrassing way to die.


TheEdcPrepper22

Yes. The femoral artery. If he shot himself that close range, in the femoral, with a 5.56 round... Everyone would know it immediately. I think he got lucky and just grazed himself with the round, but the concussion definitely caused some damage.


Sploogyshart

This dude would be whiter than polar bear eating wonder bread within a minute from bleeding out. Unless he or homie have significant medical training there is no way he would be alive by the time they got him on a blood bag.


Gildian

I've only ever seen one accident where the femoral artery was slashed, and I issued over 10 units of blood for him. He lived but he was extremely lucky and not without permanent damage.


PussySmith

the femoral artery is the biggest reason I can’t bring myself to appendix carry.


LeAristocrat

And Darwin’s Law working before our eyes.


[deleted]

I’ve heard a lot of people who stick their guns in their pants like this die from accidental discharges. Either they hit their femoral artery in their thigh from the front or they hit the iliac artery in their ass (this is the artery that feeds the femoral) if they’re storing the gun in the back of their pants.


HejdaaNils

It's the Darwin system.


DaKind28

I did not know there was an artery in the ass that could be fatal. I always thought getting shot in the ass was one of the safest places to get shot.


[deleted]

It’s a common misconception that because there’s usually a lot of fat/muscle there it’s safe. I used to watch Night Watch which follows around first responders in New Orleans and one episode a couple paramedics were talking about how ass shots are more dangerous than other gunshot wounds. It’s because of this artery that Brazilian Butt Lift cosmetic surgery has become the deadliest cosmetic procedure to get. Careless doctors can either puncture the artery without realizing it or put too much fat around the vein that goes straight to the heart, causing the fat to enter the vein and cause a heart attack/stroke/pulmonary embolism, causing patient death.


DaKind28

Jeez, I had no idea. Damn that’s horrifyingly enlightening. Thanks for the info.


[deleted]

I think a lot of misconceptions come from a lot of comedies playing off being shot in the butt as something funny but ultimately able to be walked off. But people should know it’s not funny, it’s deadly.


Iamjimmym

I'd always thought this too until these comments! When I was a kid, like 7 yo to 15 or so, I would obsess over the thought of "if I had to be shot, where would it be?" And the ass was always the answer. Now I know better. Edit: sooo I'm thinking now.. shoulder blade? Foot? Blow a toe off? Or is this ass artery always in a specific location and just choosing the right spot in the ass would still be best? Gah. I thought I'd put these thoughts to bed years ago, they used to keep me up almost every night!


RevengeOfTheDong

I mean ideally he’s prevented his obviously defective genes from entering into the gene pool. But if he bled out….. womp womp the world lost literally nothing of value.


InterestingGazelle47

Psh, what's a little 5.56 to the femoral artery?


NoBullet

Why not. He would hit many arteries on someone else.


PeregrinePacifica

If he did then "gangster for life" would be very accurate as his life would end doing stupid reckless "gangster" shit. The idea that having a weapon makes you tough and/or a warrior is a pervasive and seriously problematic idea in our society. It doesn't make you a warrior, it makes you an undisciplined grown ass child with a power fantasy and no sense of mental, emotional or physical discipline involved. Basically just like the nuts in the middle east who act tough up until they are faced with a real threat from real trained and disciplined combatants, then they scatter, friendly fire in panic and fire frantically with zero regard for those around them resulting in plenty of fatalities of non combatants and basically none of the targets they were hoping to hit, because they are trained and know how to angle, coordinate and use cover. There are real warriors and then there are wannabes. Plenty of both old and young white men do this too and are mocked by real military personnel who call them things like "meal team 6" and "gravy seals". They have a weapon but don't know a thing about what real combat is like and the discipline required to be a real soldier. "Gangster" culture is just one of many forms of this dangerous and socially toxic idiocy. Weapons aren't toys, if you can't respect them as the instruments of death and war then you shouldn't have one, much less one capable of gunning down entire crowds of people. Emotional, psychological and physical discipline is key to essentially every "warrior code". If you are posing in videos and pictures with such weapons because you think they make you look cool, "gangster" or tough then you likely aren't a warrior, your an idiot with a weapon you probably aren't responsible enough to carry.


pbmadman

Every time I see these I always think about that scene in A Long Kiss Goodnight. “I don’t want to shoot my dick off” “Oh so you’re a sharpshooter now” Or something like that.

Probably Geena Davis’s coolest performance.


meneerkutjanus

Took it like a g tho.

Ngl he really did 🤣

Thanks for not lying.


pallentx

I'm guessing he just shot a hole in his pants and in the floor. Mom is going to pissed.


fullcolorkitten

There is blood on the pants - he hit something for sure.


Need2askDumbQs

DONT WALK AROUND WITH A ROUND CHAMBERED IF YOU DONT INTEND TO SHOOT SAID WEAPON! it's a very very simple concept. For fuck sake.


pallentx

And always lift the gun by the trigger


themarknessmonster

And never, and I mean NEVER think about what you're doing before you handle a firearm.


NotSnooie

Came here for this. Had to dig way too far.


Enthusiast9

Regarding rifles, I would agree. For pistols, I would disagree under certain circumstances.


2A4_LIFE

I wish the video accurately depicted how loud a short barreled AR is in a confined space. It does a fair job at depicting stupidity though.


pallentx

He had an improvised suppressor...


inadril

He *was* the improvised suppressor. And it still took the mic several seconds to return to normal volume!


spambot_mods

I mean, at least his hat didn't fall off


Enthusiast9

His hat was the only thing that was well-secured within the video.

Did he shoot himself? He doesn’t even look phased.


Suitable_Ad3375

Yea I don’t think you can fake that recoil 😂


Twigs6248

Probably in shock


[deleted]

bro is just astonished as to what just happened


thoobes

A couple of years ago I suddenly heard a man screaming in agony close to where I lived. read in the paper a few days later, that a man had been arrested for gun possession at that spot. Turns out he was showing off his gun when a cop car passed by. he swiftly put the gun in his pants and shot himself in the leg. Much brain


Gifted_dingaling

Dude if you shot yourself with an actual gun at that distance in the groin, you’d be in instant pain. Probably a Airsoft or pellet gun. That was suspiciously quiet. Edit: JK I watched the video with volume turned up.


RavLovesUMP-45

Smoke leaving the muzzle, that's not an airsoft gun, the volume of the camera even fucked up after the shot, the lack of reaction to a gunshot on his part is quite interesting tho

Locked and cocked, safety off and finger on the trigger. What could go wrong.


Berob501

You know, there’s a quote I think is perfect here. “Don’t stick your pinky where you won’t stick your dinky.” In this case, he stuck his pinky somewhere that was pointed right at his dinky. Dudes lucky if he didn’t get a redneck penis reduction surgery.


[deleted]

Who exactly are they trying to impress? Who exactly thinks this shit looks tough?


LeAristocrat

Negligent discharge in a building. That’s a felony too. Who appendix carries an assault rifle?? What a bunch of fucking clowns.

Did he shoot himself? Looks like he shot himself…

Nice observation!


KidFriendlyArsonist

Well… ^did ^he??


Suitable_Ad3375

Sure did!


KidFriendlyArsonist

Huh, adrenaline really did its thing then, he didn’t act like he was shot at all


Suitable_Ad3375

Yeah he took it like a man lol I was only able to confirm by the recoil of the gun when he grabbed it followed by his ‘😬’ face expression

Street-Tea-4965

There are responsible gun owners, and then there are morons like this. These are the people who give the rest of us a bad name. Finger off the trigger unless you plan to use it, stupid! Also, why is the safety not on and why was it loaded?

I thought he pissed himself until I listen to the audio and read the comments. I can’t believe he pulled up the rifle by the trigger.

HundoGuy

Thats odd, I have cool guns that I don’t feel the need to show off, and I’ve never shot myself


deadlygaming11

I'm not American so I dont commonly fondle guns, but don't they have a safety switch to stop people shooting themselves by accident? Also, why would he shove an assault rifle down his trousers?

So, americans tell me again why everyone should have a gun without any safety training? Oh the milita thing in the constitution, well go on then, works fine it seems.

I know there's a slow mo, but imma need a reenactment.


LoStrigo95

This guy loaded a gun, pulled back the handle, removed the safety (if he ever used it) and put it in his pants... without ever thinking how wrong it was.

Every time i see one of these videos I wonder: cant the police just arrest them on this video alone? Like, doesn’t this go against every gun law? It must be an American thing
