So last night I went shopping at Sportsman's Warehouse to restock my ammo supply. I picked up 6 boxes of my favorite budget 45 from the top shelf (about 6ft high) and put them in my basket. A bit later I figured at that price, I should just go ahead and grab the remaining 3 boxes. I go back, and pick all 3 boxes (stacked one on top of the other) up and as I'm putting them in my basket, the top box falls off the stack. Here's where it gets crazy....
It hits the floor, AND ONE ROUND GOES OFF!!!!! Scared the holy hell out of me! I didn't think that could happen, much less would. We found the bullet on the floor, but the casing was nowhere to be found. I think it hit my shin on the way to wherever it was going, though. Every employee of the store was around in seconds - and I'm sure a few mall ninjas were low-crawling their way towards me. As near as I can figure it, when the box hit the floor, the rim of one round must have hit the primer of another, igniting it. I'm just glad my wife and daughter were next door.....
