Totally agree. That is why I drowned all mine in the lake. Bastards can't get me now!

I have said this before.. There is no such thing as an AD... NDs only.

This!
Why not clear the chamber right after removing the magazine? The only cure for stupid is permanent...

i have been to a few shows when its happened and [blaster] is right on all points . it almost always ruins a show for a few hours and no matter the "story" its always negligence in that environment .

Every time I see one of these threads it reminds me of this...

Welcome to the world of responsibility. If you can't be responsible enough to follow the rules then don't touch firearms! This is a simple concept. It's assholes that minimalize the consequences of ignoring safety rules and want people to feel good about themselves after potentially negligently killing someone that are making the firearm community unsafe.

what kind of fucking idiot brings a "defective" gun with live rounds in it to a gun show. there is no excuse for "removed the magazine but forgot to check the chamber" EVER.

And would this be your response if the show was open and the bullet killed someone ?
Total negligence on the vendor's part ! He should not be allowed back into the gunshows.

I would really like to know which dumbass vendor this was so I can stay away from their store as well.

^^^ this. The word accident is used all too often because it absolves anyone from wrong doing. Children have accidents. This was negligence.
