Selfdefenz, According to Julian S. Hatcher, US Army Head of Ordnance, the contrary is actually the case. Usually only minor injury is incurred by shooters when a gun lets go at the seams. And Hatcher saw more accidents than most. Per Hatcher's Notebook, IIRC. Exactly 180 out from what one would expect, eh?
Hatcher is the guy who IDed the Springfield 1903s with glass hard receivers, if you remember.
