Toe jam?

Compliments of my friend the Colonel comes today's gun safety lesson via e-mail. While we do not have the luxury of the full story here one can easily surmise how these events unfolded.

Note the large hole in the top of the dirty shoe. While I am not a ballistics expert I would imagine the projectile employed here was a .45 caliber.

As a gentle reminder dear reader, treat all firearms as if they are loaded at all times. And please address all of your pedicure needs at the podiatrist.
