When have you come the closest to shooting someone?

Its a trespass violation. So if you have to use it, movie theater could prosecute you for trespass, watch it get published in the media and receive the biggest backlash of their entire operation.

Unless you f' it up and hit an innocent or something.

This. These signs mean little more to me than comedic relief and a reason to take my business else where next time (or that time if it's not too much of an inconvenience at that moment).

I try not to give business to this theater, I go a couple times a year for a movie, but opt out other times during the year when the wife and kids go. Unfortunately I believe all the theaters in the area have similar signs or rules. It is a decent newer theater and I like to keep my money in the city I live. Others that are close are not in the city limits or too busy. It is what it is.

I accidently (ok, negligently) almost shot MYSELF, with a piece of shit Mitchell arms Luger copy that (unbenknownst to me) had a broken sear.

I chambered a round that I reloaded, in my basement, and with my finger OFF the trigger, it fired as soon as the bolt closed. Richocheted off the concrete wall and went right past my leg and into the couch.

After the intial shock, I got so mad at the gun, I took it in the garage and cut it into pieces with an acetelyne torch.

Thank god I was the only one home at the time, and I had the gun pointed in a safe direction.

That was an AD, not an ND. Good for you for obeying the four rules.

I almost shot myself with a nail gun the other day. Who's idea was it to put a .5 lb trigger that is two fingers tall on what is essentially an automatic gun?

When did this thread go to shooting yourself and not someone else ?

Please lets start another thread for the closest I have ever come to almost shooting myself and leave this thread for the times we have nearly shot another...

Although that could be both for some people.
