Doc Holliday 1950

Had a weird thing happen last time I was at my range. I was shooting my new SP101 and a fragment from, I'm not sure, hit me in my face next to my right eye.
Glad I wear glasses. Point is that I immediately put my revolver down, barrel facing down range, and left to to see what damage was done to my face. It burned like hell but I followed range safety procedures that I was taught. Put the bloody weapon down facing away from all and then tried to remove that burning fragment.
This man will have nightmares for the rest of his life because he did not follow safety procedures. This will and is a horrible thing to happen. My only wish is that somehow somebody down the line will not make that mistake because they remembered safety 101 or remembered this story.
