Someone needs to explain WHY the person who was cleaning the rifle did not insure the breach was clear prior to even begin cleaning it. Of course if no one had been hit by the bullet, it would have went down in history at least in the “Shooter’s mind “No harm, no foul” ‘Opinion: If anyone who is an active shooter whether it be for hunting, sport shooting or simply self defense needs to attend a 3-4 day course to obtain a Concealed Gun Carry Cert.
