Irresponsible Gun Owner of the Day: Jupiter Lanes Bowler

“A man (not pictured above) accidentally shot himself in the leg while he was bowling after the gun in his pocket went off…. Police believe the bowling ball hit his pocket and let off the gun while he was taking a shot.” While it’s hard to be sure, one witness described the gun as a revolver. The thing is, it’s virtually impossible to “let off” a revolver with just a bump from a 12 lb. Brunswick. We’d lay even money that the un-named keggler’s keys, a pocket knife or some other miscellaneous tool was sharing pocket space with his J-frame. Thankfully, dailymail.co.uk report that his injuries aren’t considered to be life threatening. There’s no word, though, how the incident may affect his league standings. Safety tip: for God’s sake, use a pocket holster (to protect the trigger) and keep everything else out of your pocket.
