Had no idea what to expect. Hope the knot on his head taught him something. Like, maybe, don't fool around with stuff you don't really understand.

I bought a shotgun with a factory pistol grip like that. Took it to the range to function check it and about 2-3 rounds was all I fired. It was miserable and I had a good 2-hand hold on it. I think it temporarily loosened some of my teeth!

Ordered a MagPul adjustable stock for it. Mossberg called it a Cruiser. I called it "dynamite on a short stick!"

Attention class...another lesson from the school of hard knocks.

Another one likely preceded by "Watch this" or "Hold my beer!". I've fired a couple of sawed-offs with pistol grips but never with one hand! Instant Karma!

Here's hoping that might've knocked some stupid outta him — before he lights a roman candle in his ass.

Looking at this again it looks like the first barrel shot made it fly toward his face and the second barrel shot burried it into his nose. I saw a guy that almost ripped his nose off with a .44 trying to "Dirty Harry" it. This recoil from the first round made the hammer hit his nose then he involuntarily squeezed off a second round which nearly took off the rest of his nose... LOTS of blood! He's luck the barrel was still pointing away from his head!

The guy who had that happen to him must have had a weak elbow or thought he was firing a .22. My daughters used to fire my .44s all the time with a 1 handed grip once they had gotten used to the recoil.
