Wonder if it was a 1911 or something else SA only??

If it was a striker fire, I would be shocked.

Dollars to doughnuts he was fucking around with it, or had it in a pocket with keys or a phone and pulled the trigger reaching for other stuff. I can't imagine it "going off".

According to the reports it went off when it hit the floor.

Then it was probably a Heritage Rough rider, lol.
Open carrying John Wayne style, but in a $7 uncle mikes holster that was meant to be carried IWB.

He apparently was adjusting it or trying to prevent it from falling when it happened. So I think it's a safe bet that improper holster selection or fitment is to blame. Or maybe he had a Taurus tucked in the waste band of his Hanes sweat pants bareback style.

That's why I have gone exclusively to crossbreed holsters.

I dig High Noon holsters. Their Mr. Softy is awesome for the money. I never cared for all of the "in your face" religiousness of the crossbreed stuff.

Whatever keeps your gun securely hidden and ready to rock.

Of course it was in Sanford.... all the crazy shit goes on there. Remember Trayvon / Zimmerman?

I don't really have a problem with the food at Cracker Barrel, but I seem to always get the worst possible service there. If there is any other option available, I refuse to go in there.

Regarding the story at hand, I hate to hear about things like this- it's terrible for gun owners and worse for those of us who carry. I wish no accidents would happen- or at least that everyone would be extremely careful and take precautions. Not to mention getting some training- or at least practice.

I hate breakfast food
I hate eggs, hate the smell. you know they come out of a chicken's ass?
I don't really love "american style" breakfast either. Too greasy for morning. Give me some soft cheese, yogurt, fruit, and maybe a waffle. And if in Germany, toss in some thin sliced braunschweiger.
