Round In The Chamber

[mtmuley]

So I’m betting those people I’ve seen looking at me through a rifle scope also likely had a round chambered.

I always unload my rifle and leave the bolt open when I do that. mtmuley

But you are in the 48.8 percentile with the slow kids.

Yeah. Probly. At least I'm safe. mtmuley

If the gun is on my shoulder or in my pack I leave the chamber unloaded and expect the same of anyone in my presence; if the gun is in my hands where I expect close/quick action I’ll put one in the pipe.

I have had brush snag my safety and click it to fire while the gun was in my shoulder, it does happen and could be catastrophic. I’ve also been standing by someone (a guest at our camp that I did not know) when he had an “accidental” discharge - that will scare you.

Can I be offensively offended?

Englishing is hard.

Especially if you put some English in the offensive

For what lol? I asked her one day awhile back if she knew why guys buy new trucks. She said no and I said because the old one starts giving them problems. I’m lucky she lets me run hard in hunting season

These days the proper phrase is “special needs.”

 

[CowboyLeroy]

I thought the subject might deserve a more civil discussion here

Lol

How to be offensively offended is actually an essay question on the United States Citizenship Exam.

Anyone ride a motorcycle? A car is safe(r). You're twenty four times more likely to die than driving a car. (NHTSA).

Don't want to ride bitch? Don't ride bitch. Don't want to hunt with a chamber loaded, safety on, hunt partner or guest? Don't.

Meh, to each his / her own for the decisions we make.

Yes, I keep a chambered round, safety on. Missed a chance at an enormous black bear one time, because in the moment it took to chamber a round, he was gone. Also many times I missed opportunities at good bucks for the same reason. Maybe if I lived out west, where the forest or woods aren't so dense, like in the east, I might feel differently.
