I was putting on a target and the cardboard target backer was wasted so I had to put my finger under the cardboard for support and even being carefull I stapled the tip of my finger!!! Guys have a great day.
And THIS gentleman is why you ALWAYS carry a trauma kit to the range.
Negligent discharges like this are NO joke.
Did you revert to your training…and call your mom? ![]()
i’ve done that… :o
Me too and damn it sucks more than usual when it’s your trigger finger.
Well at least it wasn’t pointed at your face or you were trying to show off your Billy the Kid fast draw on Udiot-tube…![]()
Could be worse, imagine if you aiwb carried that weapon? You could have had stapled your boys to your thigh. That would be worth seeing from a distance on youtube.
Haha… Once I tucked the stapler into the front of my pants while I tore off an old target. When I bent over to get the new target, I jammed the stapler handle right into my nuts. Not fun… ended up down one chemical ice pack that day.
I got bit on the knee by a big ant Sunday. ![]()
God damit you beat me to it
I stapled my finger during a TLG class. That was…uncomfortable.
Only had it happen ONCE while staple gunning target to old wooden
stake using for target holder and the stake must have been cracked
and the staple shot right through it and into the lower palm of my hand
holding the back for support.
I thought i was being careful and not having hand on other side of staple but it shot right through.
add tetanus shot on your to do list. ![]()
I went prone on some fire ants once. Talk about an extra stressor. Swatting at yourself and rolling around may not be the HSLD method but I reverted to my training. Lesson learned.
Why exactly is this being posted? This isn’t Facebook.
I am pissed…you beat me to that one.

AHHH that explains why i couldnt find the like button…

But seriously folks, watch out not to staple yourself when tacking up targets.
Really? So much drama for a little staple hole in your finger. This passes and my masturbation thread gets nuked from the site, where’s the justice…
If a Serpa holster were somehow involved, I suppose we would have a legitimate topic of conversation on our hands …
As it stands, let’s shut this one down before too many more folks follow the link, expecting to read about something just a bit more dire.
Props for effective use of humor, but as IG highlighted earlier, we do try to keep the white noise down around here, and letting this go for another 4-5 pages probably wouldn’t serve our aims in that respect.
