Looks like he got himself with the recoil and accidentally squeezed of a second round. Didn't look like he particularly know what he was doing

It says on the video info that the Glock had been converted to full auto, with a handle added to the front rail. It sounds the guy squeezes off 3-4 shots when he shoots himself.

18's come from the factory full auto. Someone should have explained to him that he should have held on to the front grip a little harder

Not the type of gun one should give to a n00b. Never really thought the Glock 18 was a really practical idea. I certainly don't like the idea of holding on to something directly below the barrel, even on an MP5K.

Operator error. No sympathy here.

And - although I am an ex-deputy, own a number of firearms and enjoy shooting them with a great emphasis on safety, I see NO REASON for a fully automatic weapon like this to be in civilian hands. None whatsoever.

If you noticed, when he turned to his right he could easily have shot the gent next to him.

Hundreds of resposible people compete in subgun matches every weekend across the country. Most people that can afford the tax on them are resposible enough to safely own and shoot them. Youtube always brings out the best in our culture
