RIP dad. Now the kid has the whole rest of his life to think about it.

Dayam. 

I'm tempted to make Darwinesque remarks, with the guy shooting up in the air first, but then just laying it down in front of the kid, ready to fire again, like wow.  It's so bizarre I'm tempted to think it was a faked vid.  Gun sure recoiled realistically, though, when the kid fired it, so apparently it wasn't a blank.

Talk about the wild, wild, west... or east, maybe.

Many sites are claiming this really happened at a Syrian wedding where it is common to fire off shots into the air. Looks like he dropped the mag but didn't clear the chamber.....and then gave the kid the gun to play with??? It also looks like the kid got KO'd by the recoil.

It's sad but seeing something like that always refreshes the whole importance of safety and how serious handling a firearm is.... :thumbsup:

I remember seeing this a long time ago...it occurred in a middle eastern nation at a wedding.  It's very sad.

What did they do before firearms?  Throw swords up in the air?

The guy seemed to look at the mag well of the gun before he put it down, but I must have missed the magazine dropping out.  Could have been too fast for the camera to catch.

If that's a Hi Power, it should have a mag disconnect. Maybe the dad removed the mag, thought that was safe enough, but the disconnect failed?

Lots of people take the mag disconnect out of a High Power because removing it makes the trigger pull smoother and lighter.
