robocallTeen rapper accidentally kills himself on social media video after pointing gun at his head and pulling trigger
Gradually_AdjustingEver since becoming a parent this kind of tragedy really gets to me. I’m glad I don’t have a gun in the house anymore, at least. Consider doing the same, if you’ve got babies. They can be clever before they’re smart, it’s not their fault they wanted to impress their friends.
SoleInvictusAt the very least, get a trigger lock or firearm safe. We don’t even have kids but I could never live with myself if a relative or neighbor kid hurt themselves or someone else with one of our firearms, so we have a safe.
Trigger locks are laughable, or were when I was researching this. I’ve left my revolver to family back in the states (as this one cannot be made UK compliant), but I’m still getting good use out of the fingerprint safe I got for it.
I do miss shooting sometimes, and it was fun to make and test a new cartridge between 45 and 454 Casull, but that’s all behind me now.
astrskYeah my dad just removed all the firing pins. Worked well.
Good extra layer, wouldn’t use it as a sole safety measure though!
