I have to agree with the OP. Most gun accidents happen from guns that were unloaded if you were to ask it's owner 30 seconds before the gun went bang. I treat ALL guns as if there is a round in the chamber! I watched a guy in front of me at a gunshow entrance carring in a Berretta pistol. cycle the slide and catch the shell,drop the clip and argue with the cop working security that the gun was unloaded. The idiot was actually waving the gun about. Until the cop said, "put the gun down or go to jail". the cop then picked up the gun cycled the slide and presto. 1 live round flys out. SOB turned white! There are idiots out there who have guns and should not be allowed to have pictures of guns!
