Our father used to do a lot of tree felling back in the 1930's using gun powder and fuse. Mainly firewood back then for all cooking and heating. Then coal gas came along. No mam-be pam-be in those days, but we notice on TV that school teachers are letting kids fall out of trees and other great fun things. Lurking. |

| 1396046 | 2015-03-10 21:04:00 | pity he forget to read rule #4.Pity he had a firearm in the first place. As for Rule #7, when you're not shooting for food, then the only and best reason for shooting... is for fun! (See Full Metal Jacket (www.imdb.com))! |

| 1396048 | 2015-03-11 07:05:00 | First rule of the firearms code ... The seven rules which should NEVER be broken when handling firearms: ❶ Treat all firearms as loaded. ❷ Always point your firearm in a safe direction. ❸ Load only when ready to fire ❹ Identify your target ❺ Check your firing zone ❻ Store firearms and ammunition safely ❼ Alcohol or drugs NEVER mix with firearms as they impair judgement I've had a FAL for around 40 years and no accidents yet. I coach High School Trapshooting teams and have been a member of both Clay Target Clubs and NZ Deerstalkers. Without knowing details it's no use guessing what happened. What really gets me is this is the second instance where an "instructor" has made a fatal error ... the other one was a Mountain Safety Instructor, who test FAL applicants, shot another hunter from 15m away ... pity he forget to read rule #4. Yes - - if everyone followed these rules there would be NO accidents - if they don't; you get tragic incidents. (not accidents) |
