I agree. There are no accidental discharges. They are all
negligent discharges.
Wyatt Earp was playing poker one night in Tombstone. He was
leaning back on the back two chair legs with the two front ones
off the floor. His revolver fell out of the holster, the hammer
hit the floor, and the gun fired. Scared Hell out of folks.
If a negligent discharge could happen to Wyatt Earp, one could
probably happen to any of us.
Don't know if true, but I have heard that is what started the
practice of keeping an empty chamber under the hammer ,
and plugged up with "burying money".
