bird 10,014 Posted April 8, 2013 Report Share Posted April 8, 2013 just read it,very sad tale to read, i wonder why they (didnt) have there guns broke, when they were walking to where they wanted to get, or unless they were Autos .? Still very sad for the family and other bloke with him. Quote Link to post

Mitchell Thompsett 7 Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 I know what it's like, my grandfathers friend accidentally blew his own head off with a 12g when he tripped on a rock :/ Quote Link to post
gouldy257 79 Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 thats sad... would he loose his guns for that am sure he's not worried thoe but what would outcome be when tragic accident? Quote Link to post
TWOTWOTHREE 152 Posted April 11, 2013 Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 I doubt losing his guns would bother him,intact I bet he will ever want to pick a gun up again after this,I imagine it will be a lifetime of what ifs.,sad times for all involved,accidents arnt personal, 3 Quote Link to post
roe-buck 63 Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 How tragic,without knowing the full details one can't really make any judgement as to whether safety etiquette was breached?The inquest will decide that I suppose?Really sad for all concerned. Quote Link to post
J Darcy 5,871 Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 One of my best mates died when he, or his mate, put a loaded shotgun in the car. terrier jumped in, landed on trigger and that was that. When I got the phone call I thought it was one of his 'jokes', getting someone to ring me and pretend it was dead as we were always winding each other up. Sadly, this time it was real. tragic. You can never be too safe with guns.Ever. Quote Link to post
low plains drifter 11,304 Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Well said J D Quote Link to post
B.P.R 2,798 Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 This could have been the result for us when a mate tripped and snapped his gun in half. Easy done Quote Link to post
