What happens in Vegas....

[sonatine]

...might stay in Vegas but that doesnt mean a 9 year old who blows her gun instructors head off doesnt spend the rest of her life in therapy.



A shooting instructor at a gun range near Las Vegas is dead after being accidentally shot by a 9-year-old girl as he taught her to use an Uzi.

Charles Vacca, a 39-year-old instructor at Kingman, Arizona's Bullets and Burgers, suffered "at least one shot to the head," Monday morning, Mohave County sheriffs told the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

The sheriff's office said the girl had successfully fired the 9mm machine gun on single-shot mode, but when the weapon was switched to full auto, it recoiled and she lost control. Vacca, who was standing to her left, was hit with "an undetermined number of rounds."

Vacca was airlifted to a Las Vegas Hospital, where he died Monday night.

The Review-Journal notes that fully automatic weapons are a selling point on the Burgers and Bullets website:

"Our guests have the opportunity to fire a wide range of fully automatic machine guns and specialty weapons," the website states. "At our range, you can shoot FULL auto on our machine guns.

"Let 'em Rip!""

The girl and her family were on vacation from New Jersey. The sheriff said no charges will be filed, and the shooting range won't be cited because it's "licensed and legal."

seems like a pretty good idea to have a 9 year old shooting a machine gun.... what could go wrong?

[DJ_Chaps]

9 year old shooting Uzis at a place names Burgers n Bullets. LOL America, where this is considered normal, and you are considered a foolish sheep for thinking it isn't.

[Dan Druff]

To be fair, this happened in Kingman (home of Tim McVeigh), not Vegas.

And that's like blaming Vegas for something that happens in St. George.

This happened before at a range with a kid, no?

[Hockey Guy]

Obviously a shitty instructor.

I wish there was space in this country between being pro-control and viewing firearms as some sort of religion.

Should definitely be in one of those Onion or real news quizzes. Would have guessed Onion. Every detail is just perfectly absurd.

There is definitely a part of me that is waiting to find out its bullshit.

Chaps gone full retard, everyone in Israel has an Uzi when they leave the military, they just have justifiable targets to shoot at, unlike in 'Merica - so we shoot each other.

I'm proud of that little girl for exercising her Second Amendment rights and showing The Terrorists who's boss.

How can I agree with you and even post more incidents of the same idiocy yet think that I somehow called you a tard? You're a tard because you think that it is the guns fault.

I got a hundo on karma.....guy did something or maybe he was thinking of a naughty teacher student relationship??????

[DirtyB]

It ends right before she shoots him.



This is the dumbest shit I've ever seen. It's 50 or 60 bucks to fire one magazine from that gun. So fuckhead "instructor" lets her fire ONE bullet on single shot before switching to full auto. She blew his head off right next to her face. Holy shit.

This has to be fake because nothing bad could ever happen involving guns as long as you're properly trained & I'm sure he's a qualified instructor.

 

I mean was.....

Typical news media scrambling facts. Kingman is on the Route between Phx and Vegas and its well over an hour between the 2. Its like when the whole DC Sniper thing happened back east years ago.. Several of the shootings were nowhere near DC and in fact were closer to Richmond VA in one case (Fredericksburg is an hour away from DC even speeding at 70+ up I-95). The two clowns were caught nearly up in PA in Northern MD which would be like trying to tie some incident in Mt Charleston to Vegas directly.

Despite being pro gun and believing true gun control is hitting the target dead center of mass with a double tap. I have to agree whole heartedly with you on this for once DirtyB. No way should a kid that young be firing a full auto weapon. I mean even a mounted 50 cal on a tripod is risky but a regular essentially handheld chainsaw gun that can fire a clip in under 5 secs doesn't belong in the hands of anybody under 16 who has zero chance to control the recoil.
