Derek 'Tex' Grebner: Shoots Himself In Leg (VIDEO)

Derek "Tex" Grebner, who describes himself on his YouTube channel as "a pretty unprofessional outdoors show host and an unbiased online gear reviewer," accidentally shot himself in the leg with a Kimber Pro Carry II .45 while drawing his weapon.

Earlier in the day, Grebner had been practicing "how to draw and fire from defensive retention" with his Glock and a different holster. On that particular holster, the gun is released by pressing a button with your thumb. This button, Grebner explains, is in the same location as the safety on the Kimber, the gun that he shot himself with.

"When I went to draw my pistol, I pushed down and took off the safety," he says in the video. "Then I pulled up. The gun did not release...so as I pulled up, I hit that, my finger curled into the trigger guard and I ripped a round through my leg."

Grebner was able to stop the bleeding before the paramedics arrived.

"Things just tend to happen," he says. "I just hope that they never happen to me again and I hope that they never happen to you."

At the end of the video, Grebner encourages viewers to join the NRA "to protect our rights."

"to protect our rights....(to shoot yourselves in the leg)"

Yessiree... Another "mental giant" in the Second Amendment fold... Let's hope he doesn't take it with him to a bar, or college campus....

Spoken like a true Leftist knothead. Carry on Lazy Jerk.

"TEX" is obviously stupid - and an idiot - hope he stays in the tar pit of TEJAS.

well - he was using a holster that is banned in many competitive shooting associations......

Why? because the holster could trigger an unintended misfire......

If you put a moron behind the wheel of a car and he hits the throttle instead of the brake, he may very well kill himself or some innocent person(s). So what is the point of THIS outrage?

I wasn't aware that it was posted as an outrage... More like holding a mirror up and laughing at another "Bubba" with more bullets than brains.

I laughed too.



And his holster is to blame.

Oh I see, this

Another "mental giant" in the Second Amendment

was not meant to put down any particular group of people. As you would say, Got it!

And you think that sarcasm is automatically "outrage"?

You need counseling...
