Why you should be careful when reloading..........

Re: Why you should be careful when reloading..........

Looks like the trigger is sitting in the guard funny. Must have been exciting.

I'm guessing a double charge of something fast and dense.

Looks like it "kicked" so hard it pulled one of the bullets like a kinetic puller.

Three?

Nothing specific, just a thought; Make something fool-proof and nature will come up with a more determined fool.

(Reloading is NOT fool-proof!)

He doesn't need to "dispose" of that one, it's harmless. Maybe the grips and a few of the action parts could be salvaged?

I think he wanted to get rid of the bad voodoo, which is why he gave it to us. I agree with hanging it over the reloading bench as a reminder to be more careful.

My guess the culprit here is a double charge due to carelessness. He is lucky that there were only three rounds in the gun. Six going off at once probably would have resulted in more of a mark on his pieces parts.

I'd like to have that sitting on my mantle up over the fire place.

Seriously, I'm glad I wasn't even in the same county as that thing when it BOOM.

But imagine the conversations that thing could start.

Yes, I think that's a good idea!

This is why we wear eye protection when shooting!! Even if you are squared away, the nut shooting next to you could set one off like this. I am sure debris went flying in all directions.

I agree on hanging it over the reloading bench. It'll serve as much more of an objective learning lesson that "There was this one time when...."
