I was shooting a 9mm Beretta on the morning of my wedding and the last shot misfired/exploded in the chamber...hot brass casing and gun powder sprayed all over my face, hands, arms.

That solidified wearing eye protection for me!

Oh yeah, I've been peppered in the bean field more than once... no more public land bird hunting for me.

Had the shards come back. Had a nail from an air nailer skim across my hand. Didn't break the skin, but bruised the whole thing. Taken a few from bb gun bounces, but nothing too bad. Hopefully that will be all ;).

heh, yeah I forgot about that one...sorry. That was my gun wasn't it. Ok so maybe I was trying to finish off the B.I.L. before the wedding. As I recall, my darling sibling wasn't too pleased with me about that one.
