Not sure that I have ever read or heard of a Glock model accidentally discharging. Now when it is put into human hands, of course there is the possibility of an accident but really he made the choice to pull the trigger. Luckily it was a pc monitor and no one was injured.
Yup... But I don't trust the indicator either... Press check all the way for me.Glockmaster said:Always always check the chamber indicator and or pull the slide back a little bit to see if there is a round in the chamber..
Agreed no accident here just a stupid mistake.
Agreed. Whatever works for you. Just double check the chamber. I always take the slide back a little bit as well..chilly613 said:Yup... But I don't trust the indicator either... Press check all the way for me.
Yes, semantics, but if we are going to make an analogy with cars, it would be like rolling a stop sign, running a red light, tailgating, etc... ie not obeying the law, or in this case following the appropriate safety procedures.klf said:Opinions are like belly buttons. Everyone has one. Here is mine. It is all semantics. The main thing is no one was hurt. The next time you have an at fault fender bender be sure to tell the officer and your insurance agent about your negligent action.
I can guarantee if I ever get in a fender bender or major collision it will be because of somebody else's negligence.Opinions are like belly buttons. Everyone has one. Here is mine.

Semantically, there is a such a thing as an automobile accident. Your brakes could fail... your alternator could die while you're on the freeway, thereby killing all power... your tire(s) could blow, causing you to swerve (accidentally or negligently?) into another vehicle... etc.I can guarantee if I ever get in a fender bender or major collision it will be because of somebody else's negligence.
Agreed, unless there were only 1 or 2 rounds in the magazine.How does one not simply feel the weight of rounds in the magazine before loading? It like triples the weight.
York County, not New York. Fort Mill is in South Carolina.I think the article said this was new york...
I didn't say accident. Never do.Semantically, there is a such a thing as an automobile accident.

What I found more interesting about the original article was the story of the kid taking his XBOX out of the gun safe and discharging his father's firearm. If you read the article, how can this happen unless the kid actually grabbed the handgun instead of the XBOX while mom wasn't looking? Also, Mom should've taken the XBOX out for him. At least with the officer who was put on probation, he outright states that the gun functioned as it should and that the fault was his.
I guess I was referring more to the train of thought in that sub-thread... that automobile "accidents" could be considered "negligent" as a comparison to how there are no ADs, just NDs.I didn't say accident. Never do.
lol, really, i giggled a bit.I guess I was referring more to the train of thought in that sub-thread... that automobile "accidents" could be considered "negligent" as a comparison to how there are no ADs, just NDs.
It would've been clearer had I elucidated that overall rather than lazily quoted you directly, EvilD. I consider you unquoted.![]()
