Seen it before, but still amazing. He actually cocks the gun and doesn't bother to check the chamber to see if a shell is being inserted, then slams the slide shut and puts his finger inside the trigger guard while NOT aiming at anything.
How many gun safety rules can you violate at once? (The correct answer is ZERO!)
This kind of crap is the only thing that makes me a little unnerved about going to the gun range. Last weekend, after people in the pistol range area called for a cease fire for going down range, some moron FIRED while one guy was putting up a target. Granted they were not that close to each other, but it could have been fatal if the bullet was to ricochet and hit the other guy.
It caused an argument and got pretty heated, which is the first time I ever saw that happen at a gun range too! It ended up with the range owner going down to break up the yelling match and the guy who had gone down range left. Don't know if he was asked to leave, as he was doing the most yelling (can you blame him?), but the other guy stayed and kept shooting.....go figure.
I believe in gun ownership, and in gun training and diligent safety practices. I am not saying I have never done anything stupid by accident, but everyone should be VERY aware when handling a gun and in fact should be ANAL about being safe and sure of your gun's state of readiness, and for everyones sake, KEEP YOUR FINGER OUT OF THE TRIGGER GUARD UNLESS YOU ARE POINTING AT YOUR INTENDED TARGET!!!!
(From a gun manufacturer site: Bushmaster Safety Tip: Never load a firearm until ready for use!)
