You think she might be just a little bit ticked off over that, and you posting it? That was too funny though. She sure can move fast!
The expression on her face. Frakkin’ classic. Well done, sirrah! 😉
Beauty!!! A thing of true beauty!!! Nice thing to see was that you didn’t freeze.
Find yourself an IPSC range Kathy and take the Black Badge course. Outstanding way to learn practical gun handling.

Pat
I’m fairly certain that the women in the video is NOT Ms. Shaidle, people. It’s a joke from a friend to a friend, clearly.
I hate to spell improperly: *woman*.
Besides, Kathy is canadian…does that sound like a Canadian accent to you….lol
That was supposed to be funny?
Never, ever give a 1911-style handgun to a noobie.
It’s designed to be ‘cocked and locked’ and anyone that has ever fired one for the first time knows that it can bite.
Not smart, an accident waiting to happen: scaring the bejeezus out of someone fiddling with a gun.
Oh c’mon people.
Kate and Kathy obviously know each other and this is just and inside joke that both probably laugh their guts out at.
Yeah, it’s a good funny clip and no one with any gun experience would take it seriously – those with none may well, and there in is the joke.
Well, that’s not Kathy, but if Kathy wants some hands on time with a .45 she can contact me off Kate’s site and we’ll do the range thingy…:)
Only in America are you lucky enough to be able to sit in your backyard and fiddle around with your 1911 pistol.
If that was Canada,a Police SWAT team would be locking down a 4 square block area and a helicopter would be flying overhead with an assault team getting ready to rappel down and take out the “perp”.
P.S. “Finger off the Trigger” should have been the 2nd thing he taught her after “Treat every gun as if it were loaded”.
Either he didn’t teach her that,or she don’t listen too good!
Please, even I’m not THAT dumpy! And my husband isn’t one of the Trailer Park Boys…
🙂
I like to think I’d have wheeled around all cool like at the sound and calmly blown the ‘intruders’ brains out. He was asking for it with that haircut.
PS: I was the only one in my Restricted class to score 100%, so pleeeeeeze… 🙂
I’ve got “twelve days” in the “How long ’till Shaidle pops a cap in someone’s ass” pool.
Kathy, you’re prettier than the gal in this vid and carry yourself with much more aplomb and class.
For starters, you wouldn’t be sitting in your back yard with a stupid look on your face fiddling with a GUN, for G*d’s sake.
You have better things to do–like fighting for freedom of speech in the Deranged Dominion. You’d probably be in a phone booth, somewhere, putting on your invincicble cape… 😉
Skip, email me.
Yeah, that video has been around the internet lately and it is kind of funny in a trailer park humor kind of way (not that there is anything wrong with that).
To be picky though, it looks like she has never taken a proper lesson on weapons handling or was “taught” by dear old hubby and we have all seen home taught drivers on the roads. Absolutely the best way to ensure bad habits get passed on… until Darwin wins.
I’m just waiting though for the “Get even with Kate” video from five feet of furry. It should prove entertaining fer sure.
Kathy, you say “Trailer Park Boys” like it’s a bad thing?!
I used to have a t-shirt showing a crew-cut guy guzzling some beer captioned “Rednecks have more fun”. And it’s true!
(Ever meet a happy-go-lucky feminist?)
Jay Leno had this on several nights ago.
I’m so glad that’s not Kathy Shaidle. The woman in the video looks just like Rosie O’Donnel! Looks about as intelligent as Rosie, too, judging from the comically moronic expressions on her face, though she appears to be far, far less mean-and-bitchy-looking than Rosie…
Speaking of the trailer park boys, just in case it might impress anyone (if they actually like to watch the TPB, it probably will!!!), well, my sis-in-law went to the same high school as two of ’em, at the same time…
She’s right about one thing: “You’re an asshole”.
She’s doing what EVERY newbie gun owner does with their first handgun. Once its proved safe, she’s working through the manual looking it all over and sorting out what its all about. Once its proved safe its no more dangerous than a sack of Oreos.
Contrary to David Miller, they don’t run off all on their own behind your back to the ammo cabinet, load up and go on killing sprees.
Understanding the joke between the folks at SDA, this video sure shows us how not to handle a firearm.
Kind of ignores the rule where you always assume a firearm is loaded. If it had been someone might have had an epitaph that read “Such a funny joke I died laughing”.
He might as well go out and buy an inflatable doll right now. He’s going to need one.
Where does “Trailer Park” enter into the equation? I see a nice subdivision with green lawns, and bottled water.
Is it because they are white, and have southern accents? This is now equated with trailer parks, which, in any case, beat the hell out of public housing ghettos and aren’t subsidized by the taxpayer?
The man bashing is disappointing too.
Q. How many women does it take to change a lightbulb?
A. THAT’S NOT FUNNY!!!
Skip, you’re right, other than not realizing she was being taped by some hoser who would post the clip on youtube, the woman was doing absolutely nothing wrong.
Well, I thought it was funny, but then again, I am the Redneck Guy who will throw fish-guts on you, especially if you like to eat them but won’t help clean them.
,
Like I said earlier, do the IPSC Black Badge 2 day course, compete in a few IPSC matches and your gun handling and gun safety, will skyrocket.
Excellent training in the practical handling of a pistol.
That having been said, the clip was funny as heck and those that don’t see it as funny either have no sense of humour or are hopolophobes. Hmmm? Do hopolophobes have a sense of humour?
Pat
Pat, I liked your reference to hoplophobes (did you missplell it?) but goofing around with firearms is not a laughing matter.
Excuse me now as I have to go insert sharp knives into my toaster. Wait…is it plugged in? Yup, OK. For this experiment I’ll attempt to demonstrate how t

rule #1… all guns are always loaded… closely followed by…
never let the barrel cover anything… you’re not willing to
destroy.
and yes… i’m ipsc qualified.

Shaidle is too smart for that.
HaHaHa, no intimate female companionship tonight – eh!
That guy is just asking for a Darwin Award: “I know what would be fun! I’ll make a loud banging noise behind my unsuspecting ARMED wife… hey y’all, watch this!!”
Hubby ain’t gonna get his cookie tonight I bet. In fact he’s probably getting aquainted with the couch for a wee while. Too Funny though.
Man she can move fast. I guess you have to, living in Toronto these day’s.
Scared my cousin with a hampster (shes terrified of any rodents)one time, didn’t know she had just had surgery. Boy I still feel guilty. She was okay. Years latter we still laugh.
Desertion of post and leaving weapon as well? Two years in the punishment battalion clearing minefields should sharpen her wits under fire. When firing starts like this, you must run WITH YOUR WEAPON to your ammunition stocks and then carry the fight back to the enemy. How often must this be repeated? Merde!

Finger off the trigger.
Pretty important rule.
I have but one thing to say:
BWAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!!!

Yes, for an unproved or loaded gun. Once a gun is proved, much less so. Apparently some have never dry-fired a handgun to work an action or sort out trigger-finger issues. Firearms are not mythical or magical creatures. They don’t go from a safe state to an armed state all by themselves.
In the video, he told her to leave it alone. The video doesn’t show whether she proved it before handling or not. His point was that she wasn’t doing what she was told.
At some point in proving a firearm you have to have some confidence in your proof. If you don’t have that, the gun isn’t safe in your hands under any circumstances.
Safe handling is a discipline not a paranoia. Leave that to the hoplophobes. Since the Black badgers have come out, I will say that I carry a CDP instructor’s card…
Please get it that I am not trying to underestimate the importance of proving and the discpline that goes with it. At the same time I don’t wish to contribute to the gun banner’s mythology about firearms either.
Skip I’m only going by what I see in the video.
A “newbie”,fiddlin’ with her husband’s piece.
My guess is she probably wouldn’t have known proven,unproven,loaded or not loaded.
Best example I know of,is that video from Florida of that stumblebum,dreadlocked SWAT team member shooting himself in the leg when he was demonstrating to little school kids the dangers they face when they find a gun on the street or some such.
Skip: I agree with you 100%. Once proved, dry firing a weapon is part of care, testing, cleaning, and practice (unless it’s of a type that gets damaged from dry firing). I’d never buy any firearm until I had dry fired enough times to be sure that the trigger feel was to my satisfaction. It’s just a machine.
One rule one may want to make is that when dry firing: Don’t just point, actually “aim” at what you intend on shooting (ground, berm, forest) In the CF that’s the rule.
– If indeed that vid is not a fake, one thing is for certian, that woman has never fired a pistol before and certianly not that one. I’ve taught many family members to shoot pistols and never have I seen anyone hold or play with a pistol like that after they’ve fired their first round.
My daughters, at age 10, were more respectful of firearms than that and never once did they hold them in such a goofy limp-wristed way. All that the “wife” had to do was see her husband hold it properly once and she’d have a basic idea. Either that, or she’s a total loon and should not be near firearms.
Dumb to post it on YouTube.
Yet sooooooooooo hilarious.
Would I be tempted to do something like that with my wife?
Yeppers.
AFTER I had proven it safe myself, rounded up all the ammo and magazines and not let her or the firearm out of my sight for a second to make absolutely damn sure it’s condition didn’t change by accident.
Would I really do it? Not a chance! She’s got her CPL and I have yet to run faster that 1000 fps. 😀
You think she might be just a little bit ticked off over that, and you posting it? That was too funny though. She sure can move fast!
