Silver Eagle Group
Sunday, January 3, 2010
"On sunday evening a member of the Silver Eagle Group sustained an injury to his leg and foot when he accidentally discharged his firearm while holstering it on the range. The SEG team immediately administered first aid to the injured member and transported him to the emergency room. It is anticipated that he will make a full recovery. In an effort to safeguard his privacy, SEG is not releasing the name of the injured member. We would like to remind all shooters of the importance of safe handling techniques and proper firearm maintenance."

Sloppy gun handlers make me nervous. Get your shit together, or stay the hell away from gun ranges.
And me in particular.

I wouldn't call him an idiot. It could happen to any of us. You just have to slow down and be careful, there's no reason to holster your weapon so fast (you should draw fast, but there's no need to holster quickly). This is why reason why I don't like guns without a manual safety (glocks).

That's what happens when you don't respect your weapon. He broke one of the first rules of handgun safety: Never put your finger on the trigger until you're ready to fire.

I think what happened was he never took his finger off the trigger. Speculation, of course, but after working there for a while when the place first opened and running the ranges that's my best guess.

95% of gun owners shouldn't be allowed to own guns. I'm surprise there are not more accidents considering the recklessness of the majority of gun owners.

There are, but putting them all out there is bad for business. When I worked at SEG a guy shot himself in the hand inadvertantly when the cylinder of his revolver didn't align properly with the barrel (which means he didn't take care of his weapon for shit). Luckily enough for him, the bullet fragment only grazed his hand and embedded itself in the wall behind him. Other common injuries caused by carelessness / ignorance would include; railroad tracks caused by double-thumbing the grip, fucked up thumbs (hyper extended or broken) after leaving it up on the back end of the slide, burns / bruises on the face after giving your 95 lb. girlfriend who has never fired a weapon before a .357 magnum... the list goes on and on and the fuck-ups only get weirder and weirder.
(I will admit that watching the last one listed was funny as hell and never got old)

Google "Dario Marquez Campaign Contributions" if interested. I never cared, but on other forums they seemed to care a great deal.

Which is great! But being a 2nd Ammendment advocate I know that it only takes one bad apple to spoil the bunch. Gun control is education, not legislation. If retards like this guy weren't careless, politicians wouldn't be trying to restrict / revoke our given right bear arms.

It would appear that he went to the Plaxico Burress School for Responsible Use of Firearms.

That was Blue Ridge Arsenal, not the Silver Eagle. Besides, Obama hasn't done anything to restrict gun ownership, so who gives a fuck if a gun store supported a guy who wasn't going to fuck with gun laws.

No, it was Silver Eagle but I agree with what you said. Who gives a fuck? So what if the owner of MVM Security/CEO of Silver Eagle threw a few thousand at Hillary, Obama and company? He (Dario Marquez) is a Dem. and supports his party. I think the major factor for the people who do care is that he supports local Dems. who do want to further restrict gun laws and introduce legislation to that effect on a national level which they believe Obama would back. Clear as mud?

I do. I refuse to patronize ANY establishment/owner that supports
ANY politician who favors gun control. State, local, federal, it
doesn't matter to me. BTW, here's a rundown of BO's past history
on 2nd Amendment issues.
