It was right infront of the policecheckpoint.. and there are plenty hospitals at rattana tibet If you sever a major artery in your leg you'll bleed out pretty quick.

Come to think of it, he could have shot his girlfriend - that would have been much worse. All a matter of perspective. i am sure the deceased would have far prefered that it was his girlfriend who had been shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artisi Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 1 hour ago, choff56 said: A citizen of Thailand with common sense should have known to locate the femoral triangle in the upper anterior region of the thigh and make an incision, using whatever sharp object is available at the moment, to find the femoral artery and clamp it off using a pair of roach clips. To add insult to death, it's common knowledge that the streets of Bangkok are full of incision making tools. Even a piece of glass from the top of some Hiso perimeter wall could have been used. The comment will probably go over like a pregnant pole-vaulter for some people, for others they will think you are serious and want to argue about it.

Uncle Pecker Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 (edited) 14 hours ago, animalmagic said: I spent quite a few years teaching the Glock pistol in a law enforcement environment and even wrote a few training programmes having undergone specialist Glock training in USA provided by the company itself. The first safety is a trigger within a trigger that requires a proper grip and application of the trigger finger onto the trigger itself to release the trigger safety before the trigger can be depressed further to discharge a bullet. Although I don't discount it as impossible to inadvertently do that I would suggest it is difficult if the owner is compos mentis and remembers there is a gun in the bag in the first place; I agree with the above post that a suitable holster should preclude that from happening. The caliber of the weapon is really irrelevant as any gunshot damage to the femoral artery in the thigh could cause massive bleeding that may result in death within 30 seconds. Well said animalmagic. I love the Glock and I think it's cool you used to teach how to use it. So this Thai guy reached for his ID. Where? Was the ID card in the bag with his gun? What an idiot. Even in a car with the proper holster, the gun typically sits along your hip off to one side, unless you're one of those who carries the gun over your nuts. Here's another thing to think about. How is it that the gun decides to discharge right when he gets stopped by the police and only at that given moment? Hey! We have to blame someone because we shun responsibility so lets blame the gun manufacturer in order to save face. They don't flat out say it was the fault of the gun, but the wording and mentioning the details of the gun implies that it was the gun's fault. My wife read this story and the first thing she said to me was that "Glocks are dangerous." That was her understanding after reading the story in Thai. I had to tell her, "no they're not." Also, if you're going to carry a loaded weapon, why would you put it in a bag? The time it would take to open the bag and get the weapon would result in your ass being dead as a door nail by the perp. A good holster is what you want. I personally like, KT Mech, Dara, Blackhawk Serpa, and the Blackhawk pancake. Edited August 3, 2016 by Uncle Pecker added comments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCC1701A Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 Glocks don't have a safety. It is built into the trigger. You don't put a loaded Glock into a bag and then start searching around for something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
