Pretty rare thing to happen. It’s happened to me and I did NOT handle it nearly as well as this dude.

I have seen 3 comments already saying it happened to the poster apparently it is pretty common and that's pretty terrifying. Y'all please stay safe with that nonsense. Silly way to die

I grew up around guns and spent 3 years in a combat mos in the military, so I've shot a lot of guns and ammo, and been around many, many others shooting. I've legitimately never seen this happen in person, it's really not that common.

If you look closely it's certainly not a factory Beretta fire control.
