Father accidentally shoots 13 month old
"Its in Tennessee.
Kevin Sayre, who is 26 years old, was field stripping his two Glock pistols because you cant eat just one in his apartment and accidentally shot his 13 month old daughter through the chest.
The baby was flown to a childrens hospital and is expected to survive. She is in critical but stable condition. The bullet traveled through the childs chest and through a recliner before coming to rest in a diaper bag, a neighbor told WSMV.
Kevin Sayre, the new face of the NRA."

The incident happened late Sunday night.

Take away and destroy his glocks and take away his freedom.

He underscores how outrageous our gun policies are and what a blight on society is the NRA and its lobbying efforts.

(53,661 posts)Why do these characters insist on working on loaded guns?
Are they too paranoid to remove the bullets when cleaning them?
Or are they too lazy?

(54,786 posts)Some here have speculated that it was deliberate. Given that he was in the military and has to know how to properly handle a gun, the police should have arrested him.

(15,396 posts)That's one of the reasons I went with an M&P over the Glocks when I bought my first EDC.
Still doesn't excuse the tatted up goon for not clearing the chamber, but I must say I've never been comfortable with the glock takedown. (I did buy a G20 last year)
Anytime I dry fire a firearm in the house (unless using snap caps) I will plant the barrel into bed or couch arm (just don't knock it out of battery) before I pull the trigger.
