I have a range in my back pasture. Goes to 150 yards. The backstop is 7 feet high and there is a hill behind it that has a house built into the side of it, bunker sort of. The only way I could hit that house would be to intentionally shoot through trees till I hit it. Anyway a friend of mine comes over with his new toy. An AR15 in 9mm fitted with a suppressor and a binary trigger. For those that don't know this device requires you to shoot twice every time you pull the trigger, it goes off when you pull the trigger and when you let it go. I fire four rounds slow fire to get a feel for it. My friend shoots once and then pointing the barrel up over my berm tries to put the safety on with the trigger pulled to see if he can fire only one shot. Of course it goes off pointing at Roberts place on the hill. I got pissed and reminded him for the second time in 5 minutes I have a neighbor that lives up there and he says it was an accident, I say If Robert is hurt it won't make a bit of difference accident or not. Amazingly he is pissed and says he is tired of my bitching, then leaves! So I go up the hill to see if anyone is hurt, thankfully no one is and we can't find any clue to where the bullet went. So I am twice shocked, first that he would make such a dumb move and second his cavalier attitude toward safety.
