>Hand is nowhere near trigger.

Anon...

He was unloading it and the hammer just suddenly flew forwards while he was pulling it back

>>31918081
Proof that advice on /k/ is more than a little dangerous. Btw, tell your dad to stay the fuck on /pol/

Operator error

>All firearms must be treated as if they're loaded and ready to fire at all times even if you're 110% sure they aren't. Never point a firearm at anything you don't intend to shoot.

>A loaded firearm may discharge at any time without warning or apparent cause. See rule #1.

>Always be sure of your target, your surroundings and what's beyond your target before loading a firearm.

I take it to the next level. When it's in pieces on the table, it's still loaded.

When it's still a steel billet, it's still loaded.

When it's still ore, it's still loaded.

When the ore is in the ground, it's still loaded.

It's always loaded.

>put gun on table
>after putting it down i've now pointed it at a wall i dont intend to shoot
oh no guess im irresponsible xD

>>31918897
He followed all these rules. It was pointed at a 4 foot thick concrete wall. He just didn't pull the hammer far back enough

>>31918931
Anon the atf doesn't consider ore or billets lower than 81% a weapon. So its super safe and can't fire even if it evens

>>31919074
That sounds like operator error. Its not the gun's fault that he didn't pull the hammer back.

Sorry OP, but that was all your dads fault. 1, trusting /k/ ever, cause there's a lot of noguns shitposters
2 - you should never load a firearm unless you intend to discharge it. I had a close to ND scenario with my shotgun when I first got it, and it was enough to learn my lesson

>>31918931
Okay Ivan, not everything is bomb...

>>31920231
I never said it was the gun's fault. I wouldn't be calling it an ND if it went off by itself, i'd be calling it fucking voodoo

>>31918081

Your first ND was a .444 Marlin... Inside? And you gave it a mafia burial?

Lmao

>>31920597
Goddamn son read that post again at least once.

>>31918081
Wait wut. My 444 Marlin has a halfcock hammer safety. If I let it go it just stops at halfcock. Does his not have that? I assumed all lever guns had that as standard.

>>31918253
So just to clarify, I think k's advice was sound but his dad just let the hammer go too early

>>31921144
His was made in like 1910 I think. No halfcock safety

>>31921179
This. He was thumbing down the hammer and is a fucking dumbass who fucked up and let it fall. What a retard.

>>31918081
Is your little sister taken away yet?

>>31921184
I would see about getting a new sear or having yours worked in order to have the halfcock feature. Otherwise I wouldn't feel good about a round in the chamber cause something could hit the back of the hammer and it would go off.

>>31918215
>and the hammer just suddenly flew forwards

aka "he let go of the hammer"
