If you do enough chronographing, you'll eventually shoot a chronograph or a component of a chronograph regardless of how careful you are. If you only chronograph a thousand or so rounds a year, it may never happen.

If I manage to shoot my Garmin, just take my guns away and put me in a home!

Tell him not to feel too bad.. My one nephew's kid isn't a heavy thinker. He managed to shoot TWO holes in the hood of his Ramcharger, one right after the other. If brains were money and it cost 50 cents to go around the world he couldn't get out of sight

When I was a kid we had a local, small town cop, who was in a car chase with a bad guy, driving and shooting, empty his revolver into the hood of his patrol car. I don't know if the car survived the shooting, but the cop never lived it down.

Another case of "Honey I shot my Chrono". Probably just wanted to get a Garmin and needed an excuse.

 

[rockquarry]

I am well aware. I have shot 2 out of 3 Chronys.

I shot the only Chrony I ever had, but it deserved it.

I had another friend that decades ago had a VW Beetle with the cloth retractable sunroof.
He rested his deer rifle on the roof and the muzzle blast shredded the cloth

It happens. At least the poor guy can quantum leap forward getting a new Garmin.

I have managed to hit mine twice. .38 reloads. Still works.

Maybe 3rd time will be a charm...

About 30 years ago I shot my Chrony, just "slightly" nicking it with a 44 mag, I did find out that at that time Chrony offered you 100% trade in on an upgrade model (regardless of condition, and they meant it). I am still using the upgraded Beta model.

Two semi pro dim bulbs I knew were driving down the road in an old Ford pickup. One had an 06 with the muzzle on the floor. Bulb one "is it loaded?" Bulb 2," nope" as he pulls the trigger and KERBOOM. Missed the motor and tranny, but did a number on the exhaust, but at that point neither could her very well anyway.

I knew a guy in New Zealand who forgot the shower was on until he saw water coming down the hall. Figured his pistol would make a nice drain hole but sadly found the water line
