Out of battery with a battery

This really happened on an indoor range. A (presumably nearsighted) elderly gentleman got his pistol stuck just barely out of battery. The gunshop guys rodded the gun to clear the jammed round… only to find out that it was a battery that was out of battery.

My grandfather got up in years. He could not really turn his neck around when backing up in a car. He got where he would just go back 'till he "touched" something. His kids were forced to take his keys.

I think someone needs to take this guys keys...
