[QUOTE="hunterbob, post: 1025461, member: 38116"] Defective gun OK ,,,, pointed at somebody. End of story. When I go hunting deer , I am armed with a CHL , and it could be 357, 44 mag or 45 ACP, that's before I get out . Then I unload ATV put rifle in scabbard with loaded magazine/ empty chamber... When I get to where I'm going, It gets a round in the chamber with safety on and I hunt.... Now hunting a ranch is different my Camera is on the dash, binoculars and E call. They are ready and OMG just thought "if" the E call went off accidentally , because I left the batteries in it ! Or my camera accidentally flashed a picture woo woo ... Ranch hunting is different because I can search with my truck. After I get in the gate at the ranch, my long range rifle gets up in the front seat with me and she has a 16X scope for those shots 300 yds on out to 800 yds. She gets a couple in mag, and empty chamber. My 870 has 3 slugs put in it on an empty chamber, and she gets in the back scabbard on the ATV (with the cover off). My DPMS LR 308 gets a 20 rd Mag and gets on the front rifle carrier, with an empty chamber...Bolt is locked open.. If I see hogs way out , I jump out of the truck with the Savage for the long shots.
