First thing I thought was I did a trade today with a man at Conyers...

That's the biggest problem with gun shows, form what I have seen - not the guns in the show themselves, but the ones people bring with them. They either have to unholster and leave it in the car or unload in the car and reload when they get back. If you can't do that safely, you have no business with a firearm, but it greatly increases the risk of a ND. And then there are the "unloaded" firearms people bring to sell. I would wager that if you sat at the table at the entrance you would see at least two dozen "unloaded" forearms being unloaded at the table.

LOL. I was just there yesterday. Didn't even know there was a gun show. Take care brother.

I should be sympathetic but struggling with it here.

Good lord...
don't take everything so literal.
What I meant to suggest is that it happens frequently.
Google it.

The problem is that gun haters feed on that kind of statement, they do not hear what you meant to say or to what you meant for them to hear.

 

[SafeCracka]

It is that kind of careless firearms handling that perpetuates the assumption that citizens cannot be trusted with guns, and guns simply "go off".

It happened to the chief of police in PTC...
