Funny you should mention a 30/30...

I almost got my head blown off by one of those when I was a rookie. It's a long story, but it would have really ruined my day.

Number one rule in handling firearms:

Treat it as if were loaded until checking, and verifying it's empty before your partner jokingly points it towards you and pulls the trigger.

I bet you were pretty mad at him after that stunt, huh?

PEACE THROUGH STRENGTH

It was a bad guy in the bar next to the restaurant where I was paying my bill.

I stepped forward to hand my money to the waitress, heard a "bang" and I looked towards the noise. I saw a hole in the wall where the bullet had come from. It went through the wall, to the ceiling, skipped off the ceiling and then dropped down and blew out a glass window across the restaurant. The trajectory of the bullet would have nailed me right in the ear, if I hadn't stepped forward.

Turns out two guys got into a beef in the bar, the bad guy got a rifle, brought it into the bar, the two struggled over it, it went off.

Bad guy went to jail, I went home and changed my shorts.

.....damn....that would have....well...wouldn't be much left of yer noggin. Some dumb kid at the range one time started firing when i was walking down to change targets. Least it was on the other side of the range and it was only a 9mm hi-point carbine. *shrugs* nothing like being a few inchest away from kissing a 30/30
