Every time I move my gun from carrying it on my shoulder or pick it up when I set it up against a tree or something else I check the safety. Don’t know how many times I’ve found the safety OFF! Not a good feeling.

The first thing they teach you in hunter safety class is if you pick up a gun or hand it over to someone else is make sure it’s not loaded and never point it in someone’s direction. You can’t be overly cautious when it comes to guns.Too many people have been killed by an empty gun.

I keep mine loaded. Safety is currently disengaged upon one of them and ready to go.

I remember years ago my wife picked up a black powder rifle from my stepsons possession for me to check out. She put it in the trunk of the car. Anyway it was one of those first in-line rifles that had 2 safeties on it , you know the regular safety and the other safety you had to screw out so the striker would hit the cap to fire it. Well the first thing I did was check the safety because I knew he had left it loaded. Well it was cocked with both safeties OFF AND a cap was on the nipple! The gun luckily didn’t go OFF………. but I did! Don’t remember what I said but it wasn’t good.

My brother was at a gun show in Morehead. He picked up a gun that a vendor had for sale to look at it . First thing he does is check every gun to make sure it is not loaded. My brother handed the gun to the owner and told him it was loaded. The owners excuse was that he had just traded for the gun.
I don't care if he had just traded he should have double checked the gun.

I rarely permit anyone to enter my private residence, thereby lack concern over how I keep my firearms within it.
That could get you hurt . I keep my pistol close by but no Bullitt in the chamber and the safety is on, 45 automatic.
Would not want 40 acre pond person playing around with your tools and have a accident.

That it could, but I'll continue to take my chances, as extremely petite as I happen to be, coupled with as many perverts that set designs upon me.

Just noticed that part of your post. Perhaps you added it. He actually checked and loaded the one in which I referenceed, only a few days ago. I trust that man with my life. No worries there.

My brother an I went to an auction several years ago in Pendleton Ky. They had a 12 gauge pump shotgun laying on the table. I picked it up and jacked 3 shells out of it. You should have seen the look on the Auction company owner as he was running back to where we were. He said, Was that gun load, I replied yes and handed him the 3 shells. HE was pissed at his crew for not checking the gun.

Never said that, I was referring to the actor doing his scene. He pointed at the camera for a 1st person point of view. How many movies or shows have you stated down the barrel of a gun? Sniper is a great one s one I can think of where you see the bullet coming. It’s been done in hundreds of movies and films like that. That’s why the camera woman got shot.
