- One of the local IPSC shooters severed his femoral artery with a .45
- (the same gun the previous owner shot himself with a few years earlier!!!).
-
- He was hospitalized for some time, but is doing well now. (He had to
- be rehospitalized some time later because of a post surgical infection).
- his leg still isn't "up to what it was before", but he has been told to
- expect improvement over time.

- No, I won't mention who he is or which Front Site ad is his.
