I’ve had multiple people try and hand me a gun saying “It’s not loaded.” Let me see you clear it, please. I want to see light down that chamber if I’m going to accept that. Some guys get annoyed, but I once failed a gun safety course as a teen because I forgot to ask as the instructor as he handed me one. I will absolutely never forget that going forward.

My rule is whenever anyone hands me a gun (why do people do that so often?) I always eject the magazine then rack the slide myself to verify. I don't trust the other guy not to do it too fast and not to have his finger on the trigger

The town I used to live in has to have signs in the laundromat to remind people to check their pockets for ammo.

Apparently they've had to replace a couple dryers.

Can a bullet fire just from a dryer? Wouldn’t that mean firearms would be randomly discharging in people cars in hot places like Arizona? Or is it somehow sparking or something from beating against the dryer like buttons from jeans or coveralls?

Asking because I never knew that was a thing lol

If you aren’t condition 4 when entering, I’ll meet you at condition 0.

I see a .45, 9mm and I think a 556/223 in that jar right off the bat
