This little demo worked fine for me. I don't see how it wouldn't work for you :\

obj/var
    OwNeR
obj/Projectile
    icon = 'Knife.dmi'
    density = 1
    New(loc,owner)
        ..()
        OwNeR = owner
    Bump(atom/A)
        if(ismob(A))
            var/mob/M = A
            var/mob/O = OwNeR
            view(M)<<"[M] was hit by [OwNeR]'s projectile!"
            O.Death(M)
        del src

mob/verb
    Projectile()
        set category = "Whatever"
        var/obj/Projectile/P = new(src.loc,src)
        walk(P,src.dir)

mob/proc/Death(mob/M)
    world<<"[src] killed [M]"

Yes, you shouldn't use usr in procs, but in a some cases, it works just the same. I'm not saying you should use usr in procs all the time, just minimally. Although "no usr in procs" will tell him not to use usr in procs, "don't use usr in procs because..." will tell him why, therefore giving him more incentive to not use usr in procs.

Minimally? How 'bout never, unless you're experienced enough to realize exactly when it's OK.
