Shot my own hand when working on a marker....
It left a nice mark!!
Went to test fire while adjusting trigger "dry fire" without a towel....bare handed with one in chamber(rolled forward) so couldnt see in breach hole.
It was a mag..

i did that twice with my old t8. left hand between my index and middle finger right below the webbing, it hurt bad

magmoormaster · 08-10-2011, 03:11 PM

I've done it twice.

First time was at the chrono, I had just recently removed the safety on my cocker, so when I was trying to put my barrel bag on, I pulled the trigger and blasted myself.

The second time was worse though. I was working on a rental, just finished chrono'ing it. We chrono with rebels btw. I had shot it dry, so I put my hand over the barrel and bam!! Reballs at full velocity, point blank hurt like hell.

I've never shot myself that I can remember but if you had asked me about accidentally sending a paintball through my living room wall...

ScrapIron · 08-10-2011, 03:13 PM

never, but I do unload my MKX by putting my hand a few inches in front of the barrel to catch the nerf.

Yup. Shoot my right hand once square in the palm fooling around with a marker between games. left a nice mark and bruise. I couldn't hold a barbell for a week (I lift weights).

I shot my teammate Erin in the foot once while working on a marker, her reaction was pretty awesome (she totally grabbed another marker and shot me back). Never shot myself during tech service, but I've gotten whacked up pretty nice once with a stray macroline

A few years ago at the chrono station I was trying to fit the barrel bag over the AA Intimidator loudener on one of my rainmakers. One finger had funneled into the end of the barrel just as I bumped the trigger.

Paint+blood coming out from under my fingernail was a joyous thing.

No.
However I seen a ref at a local rec-field shoot himself in the hand while expaining the rules for the newbies, he had just finished rule #12 which explained how all guns must have barrel socks on and be de-cocked while in the mash up area.
We proceeded to call him by the name "#12" for the rest of the season.
