Been peppered lightly with bird shot a time or two. If you do group dove hunts in Texas it'll happen sooner or later.

Sort of shot myself twice and was lucky both times. First time at the age of 12 a BB ricochet (sp?) off the basement wall hit me in the right eye. Had been forbidden to touch the weapon when parents not home. That's why I was in the basement so no one would see me. That didn't work out so well. Lucky part was I did have safety glasses on so no injuries but had to fess up about the glasses.

Second time I was practing quick draw with the 45 Colt, (I know, but I watched all those westerns in the 50s), and was doing fairly well until I fired on the draw. Hit my right boot. Only damage was to the boot. Lost a bit of the side of the sole. Couldn't get much closer than that!
