Have you ever discharged a firearm accidentally??

Some weapons you have to for disassembly
You don't to 'verify empty' by pulling the trigger to disassemble. You verify, double verify, triple verify, then pull the trigger when you know it's empty.
I prefer having a way to slowly lower the hammer; but not always possible.
 
Somehow, I've never considered doing that for that reason.

I figured at the time that before I put my hands around the Glock to disassemble, if it accidentally discharged somewhere, it wouldn’t be my hand or someone else in the house. I can get a new tv, I can’t get a new hand. I am older and wiser from learning from my mistakes thank God. Some people never learn.
 
Yes, a Hellcat pro. It was after driving alone for 8+ hours no sleep.

I didn't take the mag out. Tried to clear.

Pow. This was in a hotel in Indiana across from where K. Harris would be speaking a month later.

Luckily, I abided by the other two rules of firearm safety and my son didn't get hurt. I tried to trace where it could have gone. Thankfully, the hotel used to be a railroad station with a lot of metal.

They tore the hotel down the same year. I sold the hellcat pro time I got back to my home state.
 
I shot a Colt AR / SP-1 that had a trigger light enough that it would bump fire when shooting it from the prone position as the gun would bounce off the flesh on your shoulder from shot #1 and push the gun forward again against your fixed-position trigger finger giving you shot #2 that you did not want or expect.
