Yep, that's what everyone thinks.....before it happens. Do enough shooting and eventually it WILL happen.I've not had an ND and expect not to... The safety rules are there to follow, so I follow 'em. Safety check, finger out of trigger guard, muzzle away from every one, etc.
I'm offended that you are offended.
My granddaughter says infinity plus one.I'm offended that you're offended that he's offended. And to end this now... I'm offended to INFINITY!!
I cocked my Judge before I had it pointed at the target and it went off. That trigger is pretty light with the hammer back! But it was at the range and hit the ground, so I guess it doesn't count.
I'm sure the numbers are skewed... probably a high percentage of those who have had a ND responded but not that many who haven't.Seriously, 29 of 45 have had a ND? That's way higher than I would have expected. I personally don't know anyone that has had a ND.

Actually, I suspect that there are quite a few who have but will not admit it. And others will find a way to "rationalize" theirs and make it a non-occurence.Seriously, 29 of 45 have had a ND? That's way higher than I would have expected. I personally don't know anyone that has had a ND.
Not to make folly of this but... firearms are tools like any other. We make mistakes with tools. How many of us have hit our thumbs with a hammer? And we'd NEVER do that intentionally, would we? Especially not more than once in a lifetime. I'm not saying we should treat a firearm with the same care as a hammer. I'm just saying thumbs get hammered.

And some may have voted no because they considered it an "accidental" discharge.I'm sure the numbers are skewed... probably a high percentage of those who have had a ND responded but not that many who haven't.
Firearms are not only subject to human error like all tools are but also like all tools they are subject to malfunction all on their own.
