ORLANDO, Fla., Feb. 21 (UPI) -- A gun safety class attendee in Orlando, Fla., was accidentally shot in the foot by his instructor, police reported.

Robert Frauman Jr., 50, was one of three students at a concealed weapons certification class at Summit Church Saturday, when he was struck by the stray bullet, a church spokeswoman told the Orlando Sentinel, adding he was "doing well" and the bullet did not hit any bones.

I hope the instructor religiously goes back over his safety procedures, and practices what he preaches. I bet he's praying to God that never happens again.

This is what I call a dishonorable discharge. Seems like they need to set their sights on an instructor of a higher caliber. This is no way to get the lead out.

That instructor better bite the bullet and get some better training in the crosshairs, so the students will get much more bang out of the class. If his reputation is shot, no future student will pull the trigger and target in on attending his classes.

Why take pot shots? Where's the fire?
This is certainly a booming business and it's smoking hot right now, exploding on the scene.
It's also possible that the instructor might have been loaded.
However, this story really makes my day.
I'd like to post more but I have to take a pistol.
