[QUOTE="hard_r, post: 1903194, member: 9837"] "He thought it wasn't loaded." Every gun is loaded. Even when it's empty. End of story. It's wierd because I have had the rules ingrained into me from such a young age that they seem like common sense. I sometimes forget that they aren't. Some people simple do not know or follow the rules. And things like this happen and someone will say, "See. We should make owning a gun illegal so things like this don't happen." I have had the same thing happen though, not to my head, but I unloaded my 10/22. pulled the bolt back, nothing. Point in safe direction away from all people, POW! hole in kitchen door ind bullet into dirt in back yard. If I had gone, "Hurr hurr see its unloaded!" and fired it at my wife or my dog or something, it would have been a real problem. But what I thought was common sense said point away from people and dogs and tvs and self. [/QUOTE]
