Default I have a question about this pic
Does anyone know the backstory to this pic?

It's been floating around on various websites for awhile. We had joked about it that the guy looked like me, except I knew it could not be me because I would have used the mag instead of the barrel end.

It does show how badly trained some people are in terms of gun safety.

Neither one is wearing safety glasses either.

I was told that if you put the barrel up to your ear, you can hear the ocean!

I've seen that pic many times and I've always just assumed it was staged as a bad joke.
