A Dunkirk, Indiana, man, using a cigarette lighter to check the barrel of a muzzleloader, was killed Monday night when the weapon discharged in his face, sheriff’s investigators said. - Gregory David Pryor, 19, died in his parents’ rural Dunkirk home at about 11:30 p.m. - Investigators said Pryor was cleaning a .54 caliber muzzleloader that had not been firing properly. - He was using the lighter to look into the barrel when the gunpowder ignited.

I'd say the "gene pool" has lost a charter member here ...

| That is one of the dumber - and most unfortunate - moves I've heard of in awhile. |

| Cannot not imagine "looking down the barrel" of a gun you're having a problem with, - but he is young & perhaps didn't give it much thought. |
