Shells going odd directions.
So we bought a pistol over this weekend. We've wanted to for a while but kept it just to rifles until now. It's a Walther P22 and was actually really nice, only jammed once in the two hours we shot it this weekend.
It was rather hot out so I was wearing a tank top which I know I shouldn't have but did. When I was shooting one of the empty shells ejected and went down my shirt and stuck in my bra. Yeah it hurt, I probably came close to shooting my foot trying to get it out but the marks are starting to fade, one blistered a bit but it's also going away. All in all, I'm fine and glad it wasn't one of the larger caliber ones.
I don't know much about this but I'm just curious why every so often one of the shells would come back at me instead of going off to the right like they're supposed to? Is it how they're loaded? Is there a way to avoid it? I dunno, just a curiousity since I don't know much about guns considering.
