I really can't tell if you're being serious. I strongly suspect this is some rage-bait or excercise in creative writing... In case it isn't: I'd advise you to re-watch the old Mythbusters episodes. See how they do experiments and treat safety and dangerous things. You generally also don't look down the barrel of a loaded gun. Sure, it isn't supposed to go off and blow your head off until someone also pulls the trigger... But: This is how accidents work. It's literally the definition of it. And accidents do happen. Every single day.

And you're constantly begging for more accidents to happen. Your friend wasn't supposed to print it in PLA... That ABS wasn't supposed to do more than crack... The design should have worked...

And then you do the experiments and find out what happens in reality. That's the scientific approach. Your friend didn't use ABS, layer decoherence is a thing and even ABS will exhibit catastrophic failure on first try and not just crackle. The whole design might be a failure. I applaud you for learning things... But just don't have your fingers and limbs in-between you and that learning experience! Idk, clamp it down with a vise and use a rope to pull the trigger. Watch the Youtube videos of lots of other 3d printed guns explode... Hide behind the shed so the fragments won't hit your eyes.

And in case this is some creative writing project: I'd recommend you to visit 4chan. That's more a place to post gore, bait and you'll find some people who like this kind of stuff.

nah, this is fr and I DID learn out of this experience, I just wanted to share it, so everyone can be reminded how important safety is

edit: also the reason I posted a screenshot of my camera roll is, because I did something illegal

Fair enough. Take care. Glad you learned something. That's the most important bit. I was a bit wary at first. It's too easy (generally) to just blame someone else, not learn and repeat the same mistake. And I wasn't sure if you were doing this. The only correct approach is to instead have a good look at ourselves and ask: "What could I have done differently, to prevent a situation like that from happening (or escalating)."

When doing experiments and handling dangerous stuff, it is of utmost importance to factor in mistakes and even unlikely scenarios. You always need more than one layer of protection/safety. And generally don't do things unless you have a good grasp of consequences and what might go wrong and how to mitigate for that.

Stay safe, and a speedy recovery.
