    its far too easy to mishandle guns, even if you are an expert

    Every poster in this post who has mentioned how to safely use a weapon has broken one of those rules at least once.

    Incorrect. Some of us were professionally trained to handle weapons safely. I’ve never violated a gun handling rule after I learned them. I think you’re projecting a bit.

    If you violate the rules of gun handling then you shouldn’t be able to own or handle one.

      You just made a caveat I didnt. You mishandled a gun before in your life, by your own admission. You were lucky you didnt hurt someone or yourself.

      This thinking we can be perfectly in control 100% of the time is why we have this problem to begin with.

        I was taught the rules before I handled a gun. But nice try.

          So learn how to speak? If you thought thats what I would get out of, “I haven’t broken any gun rules since I learned them”, then I don’t know what to tell you.
