Yup, like a Christmas story all over again, though not in the conventional sense. I didn't hit myself in the eye with a bb by shooting, but by loading the magazine. The little spring release is on the other side which you don't really look at while loading, and when I had gotten up to 8 bbs or so, I guess my finger nudged it, and the shot up into my face
I just got a rain of bb's spraying me in the face, and stayed still for a couple seconds before facepalming and laughing at the situation, not the first time some have popped out, but first time I was hit by any. I'm just glad I had quite a few in, if there are only a couple they tend to take off pretty good.
Who knows, it might be a relaxing spa treatment somewhere :p
