It amazes me that he did not have a severe injury to his left hand....must have been wearing gloves at a minimum! Had a friend years ago have a similar explosion, finally figured out that his "old fashioned" oil mop that hooked on to the end of the rod to pull through the barrels had unhooked itself in the bore, and he got distracted between that and putting the gun up with the mop in the bore. He figured it out when he found the mop missing from his kit. My friend got some permanent black freckles in his left ear and cheek, and donated half a pinky finger.
