"for some weird reason"....I had mine; was shooting a pistol with quite a light trigger at 50 yds, had it at low ready tight in to my chest, between shots, taking a deep breath. For some weird reason my finger was on the trigger and "bang!" Played it off like I meant to do it but scared the hell out of me.
When my girls come over to shoot I'm constantly saying "finger off the trigger!" if they aren't ready to immediately fire. I check every gun repeatedly even if I just unloaded it and layed it down.
Yup, stupidity probably but I claim it was because I was so focused and besides, totally intentional"for some weird reason"....
Well shit now that y’all are telling stories about NDs here’s mine. Not sure if I should classify this is an AD or ND. You decide.
That is an ND. Not chastising you, but you were negligent on several points. Thank God no one was hurt, and I imagine you will not be a nonchalant again. Glad you have a good attitude about it.
My biggest dislike about the Glock is that you have to press the trigger to field strip.
Complacency happens easily. I have been shooting for about 50 years. Safety was drilled into me early, and I was told the first time I thought I could ease up because "I know what I am doing" that the thought would likely be followed by a loud "bang".I do agree. I was a new gun owner. I hadn’t had any safety scares and I got complacent. Thinking I was hot shit... stupid

^^^^THIS^^^^"I don't give a shit how well he shoots, can he handle that gun safely"?
There are two kinds of people, those that have had a negligent discharge and those that will have a negligent discharge.
I'm going to make sure I never have one. Every gun is loaded until l check it.No, that is a lie told by folks who have had a ND and want to feel better about themselves.
The reality is over 99% of gun owners will never have an ND.
