Mom Fatally Shot When 2yr Old Son Grabs Gun From Her Purse at Store!
WITF... OMG... What part of "Responsible Parenting" do folks still not get? These are kids, more specifically BABIES that can, will and do whatever they're little hands can reach not knowing the consequences. So sad and yet so preventable.

And think about this... A gun has to be pointed at you to make that shot! Child obviously has seen this act or action before somewhere.

This is why people needs to invest $50+ for a good holster. I know it was inside the purse, and it can be actually dangerous without some type of holster which covers the trigger(mechanism). In this case, Level II or III retention holster would've most likely prevented this tragedy.

And this is why people shouldn't purse or pocket carry. If you're must purse carry, it needs to be a purpose built concealed carry purse. But for crying out loud, don't leave a purse with a loaded firearm anywhere but your shoulder.

I'm making no excuses for the mother and we don't have all the facts, but a C&C firearem should always have one in the chamber while carrying. If you ever need to use the firearm, there's a good chance you won't have time to chamber a round.

I can see the barel pointed into the purse, so that its pointed down when on her shoulder. Then she puts it in the cart next to the kid and it tilts toward the front of cart. Kid just reaches into purse, feels something heavy and tugs it a bit. Gun fires thru the purse into mom
"In an apparent accident". Maybe momma shouldn't of cut him off from the breastfeeding |

There are so many active retention system holsters like Blackhawk CQC Serpa or Safariland's ALS system even for conceal carry. Maybe I should design a carry purse with molle backing inside, so that they can put such a holster and carry it safer for female carriers.

I don't think he was saying it was the end all solution to the bigger problem, per se....

whoa, def need to be more responsible with guns around young children, reminds me of that .gif of a kid who shot and killed his dad while playing with a gun at a wedding in the middleeast/turkey/etc.
Imagine the kid now living for the rest of his life knowing that he killed his own mother. Probably going to need counseling
