What pisses me the most that the cocksuckers would sweep you with the muzzle and you'd make a comment about keeping it pointed in the safe direction then they would say some shit like, "It's not loaded."

I don't give a flying fuck if the damn thing is loaded or not. Point that shit at me and I'll be pointing my shit back at you. Actually I had to do that once.

I was taking my nephew out blasting in the boonies and he brought a couple of his "friends" along. I suppose they're not really bad kids but listen to too much of that Fifty Cent hippity hoppity shit, thinking that they're livin' the thug life or some shit like that. One of them was a recalcitrant fuck and he kept sweeping me with the muzzle. After the second time of telling him to mind the goddamn muzzle, I took my rifle slapped in the 30-round mag, chambered that motherfucker and pointed right at his fucking head and yelled, "How do you like that, you dumb fuck?!!" He was a little freaked out and my nephew walked him back to the car telling him that I tend to have flashbacks from my Army days. Even to this day, whenever he sees me, he'd wave but won't come near.

My step sone is nearly old enough for hunter safety and "the Father" has decided that he should learn to hunt, I'm OK with that. What I'm not ok with is the child is 14 years old and has never shot a BB gun and "the Father" want him to learn to hunt with real guns. I think that if your going to show a child to hunt you bring them up around guns and start with a BB gun. You teach muzzle control with single shot BB guns not 3 or more shot shot guns. Call me crazy.

When ever we went to the range or my grand fathers farm to hunt or shoot. Before the guns came out of the trunk safety was reviewed even though every one had been around guns for years. A safety review is never a bad idea.

The other day I was in a sporting goods store and "dumb ass gun smith" hands me a gun he is working on and asked me does this scope look canted to you. It was but he did not know me to be handing me a gun. I will tell you I had a my work coat that has the my company logo and I work for a company that makes scopes and other optics, but still.

I always make the assumption that from the point it is in my hands, and until I can look into the chanber that it is loaded. Then the second it leaves my hands it is loaded again. Even if I know that the person that I just handed it to has no ammunition, unless I cleared it I consider it loaded.

I have been shot at before and its not a cool feeling.

Any time a firearm is aimed at me, regardless of if its an attempt at being "funny" or if it is someone being serious, they cease to be friend and become a hostile threat in my eyes. I dont give a FUCK if its loaded or if it isn, or why you're pointin a gun at me, you immediately become my sole object within my vision, and as such shall be dealt with.

First three rules of gun safety

1) All guns are always loaded all the time.

2) Never point a gun at something you do not intend to shoot.

3) Finger off the trigger until you're ready to fire.

No friggin' way that dude would walk away with his nuts intact. NEVER point a gun at anyone even if you are 1000000000000000% sure it isn't loaded.

Sounds like you need some new friends man.

I wouldn't consider a gun to be safe unless I saw a range instructor do it, and even then I'd treat it like it was loaded. How do these dumb fucks think that people keep getting 'accidentally' shot!
