Here’s the part nobody in the gun community should ignore: a father, drinking, handling a loaded Glock during an argument, points it at his 23-year-old daughter. And she ends up dead.
And a Texas grand jury declined to indict.
According to reporting from the New York Post and testimony from a UK coroner’s inquest, Kris Harrison shot and killed his daughter Lucy Harrison on January 10, 2025, at his home in Prosper, Texas. Lucy had been visiting from the UK and was preparing to fly home that day.
The two had argued about guns and politics, reportedly including President Trump. Harrison later told police he was showing Lucy his Glock 9mm after watching a news segment on gun violence. He claimed the gun “just went off.”
He admitted he had been drinking.
A Texas grand jury ruled the shooting accidental and declined to bring charges. But a British coroner later rejected key parts of Harrison’s version of events, stating that Lucy was shot through the chest from across the bedroom.
Meaning the firearm had to be pointed directly at her when the trigger was pulled. The coroner described Harrison as “reckless” and said even if he didn’t intend to fire, he was handling a loaded gun during an emotionally charged exchange.
Let’s be clear: this is not a Second Amendment issue. This is a gun-handling issue.
You do not “tease” someone with a loaded firearm.
You do not handle a chambered weapon while drinking.
And, you do not point a gun at someone unless you intend to destroy what’s in front of you.
Every gun owner knows the rules. Or should.
For the firearms community, stories like this are a gut punch. Not because of politics. But because negligent handling fuels every anti-gun talking point in existence. One careless act becomes ammunition for those who want broader restrictions on everyone else.
Texas law may have called it an accident. The UK coroner called it reckless.
Either way, a young woman is dead because basic firearm safety was ignored.
And that’s something no responsible gun owner can defend.

Production mix shifting toward USA might help margins if metals stay firm.
Good point. Watching costs and grades closely.
Exploration results look promising, but permitting will be the key risk.
I like the balance sheet here—less leverage than peers.

The cost guidance is better than expected. If they deliver, the stock could rerate.
