Anyone beaten to death with the pistol grip or rifle stock would like to have a word with you.
Or stabbed by a bayonet
Is that the gun killing you tho? If it's affixed, does it count as the gun or just a knife kill?
Spear kill.
I think an attachment would still count as the gun doing it.
If we consider the gun ‘attached’ to the handler, would that put the blame back on the person? Or maybe we ought to consider the handler as part of the gun itself.
Neither the gun alone nor the person alone would have killed. Therefore, the dangerous thing is the COMBINATION of gun + person. In conclusion, we shouldn’t ban guns, just make it illegal for people to interact with them in any way.
That would require necromancy
Or the military personnel shot by misfiring pistols when they drop them.
And surely someone in history has been killed by knocking over a rack of guns and being clobbered.
