Dangers of Catching a Falling Gun

Ok, that WAS a classic clip, but what's the gag? Sometimes I'm a little slow on the uptake....

Things like this might seem self evident to gun experts - or to those with significant experience handling firearms. But to catch or not to catch might not be so obvious to the rookies in the game - and EVERYONE must be a rookie at some point. This may prove to be an incredibly unfortunate truth in a moment when a father drops his gun next to his son....to catch or not to catch - ones own life or the life of a loved one may rest on a split second, natural reaction kind of movement - which may have ended up being a mere guess in this case...had this man come into contact, even one single time, with the idea that its better to let it hit the floor than to try to catch it he may be able to lay his boy down for bed tonight...

I, for one, am glad I saw this "rule".

Careful now... you’re sounding humble and aware that you’re not perfect. A lot about this thread is sad IMO.
