From a discussion elsewhere based on a truthaboutguns debate on safety vs no safety guns. NDs vs screwing up the safety on the draw or picking up the gun. Of course, there are examples of each.
My question - does one see any group more likely to forget the safety on a gun on the draw. https://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/in...manual-safety/
Of course, folks say it never happens to them. I've seen it at matches from practiced folks. I also had a guy forget his safety and finger and almost put a 45 ACP in my foot at a match.
Question - any views on whom is more likely to screw up the safety on the draw. The old (I don't much, very rare), the young without practice? Under real world extreme stress as the article argues?
The OMG, it don't shoot and here comes the bad guy vs. OMG, I done shot myself (because you ain't professional). Not counting the gun decides to shoot you on its own (320 debate - oops!).
