Default ND'ed tonight..... Shotgun #4 buck

Well, I am still in shock... I was clearing my shotgun, and.... boom.... right through the bottom of the entertainment system in my back room. I thought I cleared all rounds, and went to dry fire.... Needless to say.. one was still in there...



Damage report... The bottom of the entertainment system is blown out, blew the door off, went through back of entertainment system, and out through wall into other room into laundry basket where all of the shot was caught.

Everyone is okay, but this is a reminder to everyone out there..........


CHECK YOUR CHAMBERS...... DONT ASSUME.. I GOT COMPLACENT.. and a mistake happened..

Damage cost $20 for paint and spakle, $10 for new door to entertainment system, and a HUGE hit to my pride... I fell like selling all of my guns and giving it all up forever.....


Still suprised LEO has not shown up... it's been 30 mins now.


CHECK YOUR CHAMBERS.....

Don't kick yourself in the butt too much, there are plenty on the forum that will do it for you. You made a grave error, brain fade happens. Look on the bright side, you wont do it again. I'm glad your dad wasn't too hard on you, I'm pretty sure he know's you learned a valuable lesson. Thank you for the reminder that this can happen to anyone, good to hear no one was hurt. JT

Lets hear your stories, just so I feel better...

1 pic on the way of initial entry, I have already patched up the wall and I am gonna paint tommorrow..

Exit damage is too hard to photograph due to darkness with camera phone..

I am still shaking... This has been a ****ed up week, kidney stones, then this ****. I just wanna move on and get my **** together.
