Accidental Shooting in Utah

Local news reports
A man is in the hospital after he was shot accidentally by a friend who was cleaning out a handgun.

Police said the Riverton man was getting ready to clean his gun when he took a round out of the chamber, and the gun went off—shooting his 34-year-old friend.

The incident happened at around 2 p.m. on Saturday. Police said the man was taken to Intermountain Medical Center in critical condition, and he is expected to survive.
Is that even possible?  If he took a round out of the chamber, how could the gun be fired?

This guy's another double winner.  He should lose his gun rights for the negligent discharge AND for that cacameme explanation of how it happened.

  1. It is possible due to the supreme idiocy of the operator. Ejecting one round chambers another, upon the return of the bolt.

    Such a amusingly macabre spectacle unfolds with morbid regularity when the denizens of a nation of exceptional cognitive deficiency, America, is given exceptionally unrestricted access to the machinery of death.

    One (almost plausible) scenario is that Americans are starting to mate with vegetables, producing a generation of adult children with all the intellect of a cucumber. There is no other explanation for such degenerate behavior.
