You don't see this often

[YNOTAZ]

Yeah, this is rare but just one more thing that can happen in a close quarters range environment

Ricochet?

 

[Flash]

I once had the jacket from a 9MM come back and hit me in the shin.

It happens.

Depending on the gun it happens fairly often. It's something you should be ready for at an indoor range.

 

[YNOTAZ]

Ricochet?

Nope, ejected shell casing off the wall.

 

[effjaybay]

It's hard to see but he's got an open box of rounds next to him. Did a spent casing hit a round that was in the box right on the primer?

 

[YNOTAZ]

That's what it looks like. That's why the guy is pointing to the box of ammo with his pen.

 

[Old Jeff H]

Holy crap! That is what happened. :shock:

 

[428cj]

That would suck.

 

[Tenring]

Wow just when you think you had seen it all wow!

 

[oldslurrydog1]

:shock:

 

[792mauser]

Well now I've seen everything.
Hmmm.

 

[monkeypaw]

Hope he bought a lottery ticket

 

[zonie77]

WOW, I missed that. I thought he got a hot casing down his shirt. I wear V necks so it happens... but not the ammo on the bench!!!

I had a PPSh41 that ejected the brass straight up. Always had to wear a shirt or jacket with a collar that buttoned up to keep that brass from going into my collar. Had many near misses.

There was an article about this in one of the gun mags around 8 or 9 years ago. Showed pics of ammo that went off when ejected brass hit a primer in the box of ammo. Not the same incident probably.

It's why I always put a lid on the box before starting to fire.

An old hippie buddy was shocked to find that ricocheted shrapnel tore right through the lower half of his bell-bottoms. Prolly woulda smarted a little bit, LOL
