(18,318 posts)within the rubric of the shorting sports is still a safe and enjoyable past time.
I appreciate the precaution of not chambering a round on a hunt until (presumably) you are in a safe and stable stand or on station. It doesn't matter to me if someone is using a semi-auto rifle. My concern is being in the same vicinity the with someone who doesn't know how to use a firearm, most notably the one he/she is carrying.
Drahthaardogs
(6,843 posts)I grew up out west. We hunted for real. Packed in. Carried animals out on a back pack. Siwashed overnight to get an elk. Why the hell would you need to chamber a round sitting in a tree stand?
Eleanors38
(18,318 posts)Much of my hunting is determining wind direction and likely deer routes, then getting into position for an interception, which can be sitting next to cacti and mesquite, or standing in a motte of oaks. More fun and tiring is "still hunting," whereby you walk through moderately brushed/treed land 3 steps at a time, freeze, and take 3+ minutes to turn your head, then proceed another 3 steps. Repeat. Generally, it takes an hour to cover 150 yards. I have gotten both whitetails and axis in this manner. You must have a chambered round when still hunting as you may happen upon an animal quite close to you, and you don't want the noise of chambering to bust you. If you use a tower stand (I have used them only to scout), you access the structure with an unloaded rifle, then load.
On some of our less-than "real hunts," we drag field-dressed deer to a pick-up point, but no one in the Hill Country wants to artificially duplicate the expense of using pack animals and spike camps (maybe a few tourists ).
Have you ever tried still-hunting elk? Is it a oft-used method where you hunt?
Drahthaardogs
(6,843 posts)You get up high, spot, and stalk them. You can also try to ambush in a meadow. Elk cover a lot of ground. They are migratory animals. They don't have a home territory and move with the seasons and weather. I suppose if it is a really hot fall and they are still way up in the black timber you could try that method.
I am the pack animal most of the time. A good frame pack is worth its weight in gold.

REP
(21,691 posts)This wasn't a kid getting at an unsecured gun; this was an adult disobeying every safety rule at a gun range. A casing flew up and down the back of his shirt, and he reached for it with the hand holding a loaded gun and pulled the trigger. He could have killed himself or another shooter at the range, and he did manage to kill his child. At a range, all guns are to be kept pointing downrange; this incident illustrates why. The gun didn't malfunction and it was out at an appropriate place but it was being handled by an absolute moron. His son is dead, leaving his family with a lifetime of grief and has subjected other people at the range not only to danger but to a horrible incident. He should be charged with manslaughter or reckless endangerment at the minimum.
Act_of_Reparation
(9,116 posts)The guy had burning brass caught in his shirt. Under the circumstances, it would have taken an enormous force of will to set the weapon to safe, place it on the ground facing downrange, and then proceed to remove the scalding metal from his blistering skin.
Plenty of not-absolute-morons make stupid decisions every day.

(23,284 posts)Sounds like you are making excuses for him.
Act_of_Reparation
(9,116 posts)To address your first point: The body's response to pain is rapid and largely autonomic. The primary concern is removing the aversive stimuli as quickly as possible, not necessarily what one is holding in one's hands.
To address your second point: no, I am not making excuses for him. I am debunking the myth that there are "responsible gun owners" who always follow the rules and "morons" who accidentally shoot people. Everyone makes mistakes. Every gun owner is "responsible"... until they're not.

(26,049 posts)NO WAY did I reach in with my gun hand, or any hand, until the gun was set down pointing down range.
If you can't handle hot casings popping off your face or down your shirt without killing someone, stay the hell off my range.

Seeing as, however, that on a long enough timeline, mistakes are bound to happen no matter who we are talking about, you'll have to excuse me if I have about as much faith in you as a gun owner as the guy in the OP. As I said, everyone is responsible until they're not.

(21,691 posts)Ever had a hot casing go down your shirt? I have. It takes a second to put the pistol down. The pain from the hot casing is nothing compared to the pain of a gun shot or killing someone due to idiocy. Anyone unwilling to put up with a moment's discomfort (hot brass doesn't even really hurt that much in the scheme of things) to put down a pistol to prevent a shooting accident or death has NO business shooting.
sarisataka
(18,539 posts)A lot. I am told the scars are still visible on the back of my neck. It is quite difficult to grab a hot shell casing that is underneath the body armor.
Even so I was still able to maintain control of my gun and handle it safely.
REP
(21,691 posts)which I'm sure prolongs the contact and ouch. And while my pain scale has been moved up a few notches, I wouldn't describe it as enjoyable but as you said, it's quite possible to take the short moment to act with safety and responsibility for your sake and the sake of everyone around you. Hot brass hurts less than a gun shot wound and far, far less than taking someone's life through stupidity.
Tailgating and stupidity at the range are two things that really piss me off.
Separation
(1,975 posts)It is not a pleasant experience. Having a LMG, an automatic rifle, hell any rifle going off just to the left of you and you are the guaranteed recipiant of a hot brass shower. It all comes down to mind over matter (more importantly training) not to go waving your rifle/pistol around grabbing for it.
You own every round that comes out of that firearm. He broke Rule #1 of firearm safety. Never point your weapon at anything you do not intend to shoot.
Should he be charged? Not up to me, but Im a little bit harsh on people who break those rules.
SheilaT
(23,156 posts)which is oddly unpopular in many places.
If this man had not had a gun his son would still be alive. Is that so hard to understand? The real tragedy here is that the son was killed, not the father.
Every time we have another mass shooting in this country it's still not enough to come to genuine gun control. I do think that if every single day, every single gun death were front page news, within a few months even the most die-hard gun apologists would finally get it.
It would also help if each and every gun injury and maiming were also front page news, because those numbers are even greater than the gun deaths. I'd also encourage graphic photographs, so that people would understand just how devastating guns are to the human body. I honestly think that if we'd have seen the victims of Sandy Hook, we'd have had genuinely effective gun control by now.
But instead we have wishy-washy apologies for guns, no real presentation of the actual damage that guns do, and almost no showing of the human cost.
I've had it with the defense of the current state of gun ownership. I just want to say to each and every gun owner, as well as each and every person who defends the status quo, that you are saying you are perfectly okay with your child, your spouse, your parent, your best friend being murdered or permanently disabled by a gun. Because if we do not take away all the guns this toll will continue.

(30,884 posts)It's good that he accepts responsibility for his son's death, peculiar that he felt the need to dismiss the role of place and tool used. Had he killed his son while he was driving drunk, would he be so quick to state that alcohol had nothing to do with it?
Sadly, his statement comes across as valuing his weapons more than the life of his child. Even though I find it sad that he's ignoring the elephant in the room, people who are grieving often are irrational. I don't think he deserves to have this media attention with his name attached.

In those specific cases, we're upset about the carelessness... in this case, it's the merely the wording.

(22,457 posts)Sancho
(9,067 posts)This is my generic response to gun threads where people are shot and killed by the dumb or criminal possession of guns. For the record, I grew up in the South and on military bases. I was taught about firearms as a child, and I grew up hunting, was a member of the NRA, and I still own guns. In the 70s, I dropped out of the NRA because they become more radical and less interested in safety and training. Some personal experiences where people I know were involved in shootings caused me to realize that anyone could obtain and posses a gun no matter how illogical it was for them to have a gun. Also, easy access to more powerful guns, guns in the hands of children, and guns that werent secured are out of control in our society. As such, heres what I now think ought to be the requirements to possess a gun. Im not debating the legal language, I just think its the reasonable way to stop the shootings. Notice, none of this restricts the type of guns sold. This is aimed at the people who shoot others, because its clear that they should never have had a gun.
1.) Anyone in possession of a gun (whether they own it or not) should have a regularly renewed license. If you want to call it a permit, certificate, or something else that's fine.
2.) To get a license, you should have a background check, and be examined by a professional for emotional and mental stability appropriate for gun possession. It might be appropriate to require that examination to be accompanied by references from family, friends, employers, etc. This check is not to subject you to a mental health diagnosis, just check on your superficial and apparent gun-worthyness.
3.) To get the license, you should be required to take a safety course and pass a test appropriate to the type of gun you want to use.
4.) To get a license, you should be over 21. Under 21, you could only use a gun under direct supervision of a licensed person and after obtaining a learners license. Your license might be restricted if you have children or criminals or other unsafe people living in your home. (If you want to argue 18 or 25 or some other age, fine. 21 makes sense to me.)
5.) If you possess a gun, you would have to carry a liability insurance policy specifically for gun ownership - and likely you would have to provide proof of appropriate storage, security, and whatever statistical reasons that emerge that would drive the costs and ability to get insurance.
6.) You could not purchase a gun or ammunition without a license, and purchases would have a waiting period.
7.) If you possess a gun without a license, you go to jail, the gun is impounded, and a judge will have to let you go (just like a DUI).
8.) No one should carry an unsecured gun (except in a locked case, unloaded) when outside of home. Guns should be secure when transporting to a shooting event without demonstrating a special need. Their license should indicate training and special carry circumstances beyond recreational shooting (security guard, etc.). If you are carrying your gun while under the influence of drugs or alcohol, you lose your gun and license.
9.) If you buy, sell, give away, or inherit a gun, your license information should be recorded.
10.) If you accidentally discharge your gun, commit a crime, get referred by a mental health professional, are served a restraining order, etc., you should lose your license and guns until reinstated by a serious relicensing process.
Most of you know that a license is no big deal. Besides a drivers license you need a license to fish, operate a boat, or many other activities. I realize these differ by state, but that is not a reason to let anyone without a bit of sense pack a semiautomatic weapon in public, on the roads, and in schools. I think we need to make it much harder for some people to have guns.
sarisataka
(18,539 posts)Have had a different outcome with your propsals?
Sancho
(9,067 posts)Maybe.
Chances are that better training, better safety systems, and fewer distractions would make a difference.
All we have is the article's description of the incident. In my experience, for many years we taught children and teenagers gun safety at shooting ranges. Typically with those shooters, we used single-shot, short 22s. Nothing more distracting than kids. For that reason, you supervise kids - then do your own shooting separately. Don't mix the two. My license requires children to be supervised, not co-shooters.
If you are practicing with a semi-auto (particularly pistols), you are taught to expect cartridge ejections. That's likely a training issue. We don't know the details, but chances are very great that the shooter(s) were under-trained and over-armed. I'm sure I would never "reach" with a gun in hand, but I'd have put it down on the bench pointing out before adjusting my glasses or anything else. Training should be part of a license.
Insurance companies might have had something to say about the construction of the range. I don't live all that far from that range, and you can see all sorts of dangerous range practices here. A better one may have had one shooter per station for exactly those accident reasons. Insurance should be part of a license.
Without more details, it's hard to say.
My license is to prevent dangerous people (and situations) from easy or casual possession of guns. The higher the bar, the fewer number of deaths and shootings. Nothing is foolproof, but right now it's crazy out there.
Eleanors38
(18,318 posts)...the death of his son is the result. If you want prosecution, then advance that as a course of action.

(18,539 posts)To his admission. He was indeed responsible. Do people actually want him to say "it wasn't my fault, it was the gun" (or maybe that the gun 'went off')

(18,539 posts)Is totally irrelevant. It does not matter if the object was built to kill, trim trees, transport people or decorate birthday cakes, if the negligence of the user results in a person's death, they are dead.
It is the user's negligence that causes the death and the victim is not less because the object was designed for anything else.

(34,845 posts)Just as the odds rise when using a chainsaw in proximity to a loved one. There is a reason people stand BEHIND the person using the chainsaw. You can say that the son should have been standing BEHIND his father and that's a fair point. But that is not how people act around guns. It's not reality.

sarisataka
(18,539 posts)It was the father's negligence and violating every rule of safety and common sense with a dangerous item that caused the death.
If the chainsaw operator turned and thrust the saw at a companion in horseplay, would anyy resulting injury be blamed on the saw, as a dangerous item, or the operator who handled it carelessly.
randome
(34,845 posts)A gun cannot be controlled simply because it is so easy to set off. A chainsaw has built-in safety features to prevent accidents, such as loosening the trigger to immediately stop it.
You can't do anything to stop a bullet from its path. What you just described about 'thrusting' a chainsaw at someone sounds more like attempted murder.
Guns don't kill people. I agree with that. But they make it much easier for someone to do that.

sarisataka
(18,539 posts)Is like saying operating a stove increases the chance of being burned. It is a simple identification of risk. Once a risk is identified then behaviors must follow to reduce the risk. In this case such behaviors were not followed.
There is one, and only one, way to set off a gun.
Pull the trigger.
If that is done the gun will fire. As you correctly note the bullet cannot be recalled there for the behaviour must be in place prior to pulling the trigger.
:uns per se do not kill people. However it is almost a 100% certainty of serious injury or death from a gunshot wound. Therefore it is necessary to have some of the strictest safety procedures when handling a gun and appropriate severe penalties for those who violate such procedures. As I said elsewhere I believe the father should be charged and his admission of fault entered into evidence.
So tired of this. The primary purpose of a civilian legal firearm in America, is to accurately propel a projectile at a a target of the users choosing.
No more, no less.
randome
(34,845 posts)That's reality. There is a reason we have safety laws, as with seat belts, child-safety seats, etc. Fatalities rose until the government was forced to step in and mandate safety conditions.
The only reason that doesn't occur with gun ownership is our country's sick fascination with them.

spirald
(63 posts)Yes, semi-automatics eject extremely hot shell casings at a high velocity, because the ejection and reload is powered by the recoil of the shot. The brass can cause 2nd degree blistering burns if it gets lodged somewhere. Occasionally, the ejection velocity is fast enough to break the skin and cause a bleeding injury.
This is not an issue with bolt-action rifles, where shell casing ejection and reload is powered by hand. The casing pretty much drops to the ground and has time to transfer heat to the barrel before getting ejected.
Since semi-automatics reload automatically after each shot, it is almost certain that you will be holding a loaded, ready-to-fire weapon while your burning hot shell casing is flying through the air. When at a gun range firing semi-automatic weapons, anyone within several feet to your right will be dealing with your hot brass projectiles, while likely operating a tool that can allow a distracted individual to kill someone.
Many gun aficionados do in fact relish the rain of hot brass at the gun range as an integral part of the sport, presumably because that kind of thing is what happens on a military battlefield. Those folks can handle the distraction and the risk of burns and other injuries, and may even brag about their scars as badges of honor. There are lots of arguments out there as to the etiquette surrounding givers and receivers of hot brass at the range, but this is not the kind of environment that is consistent with "a culture of safety".
Semi-automatic weapons have distinct functional elements that greatly increase their risk of causing unintentional injury or death over manual-reloading weapons. The presence of hot brass flying around is sufficient to turn a relatively safe recreational shooting environment into a high risk zone, not to mention that you usually need to be diligent enough to -unload- the gun (by clearing the chamber) after firing it vs. taking action to load it before you use it.
It is understandable for families to want to teach their children how to safely use firearms. This is very doable.
Teaching people how to maintain line-of-fire and finger-on-trigger discipline when a hot piece of metal gets lodged next to their skin and they are undergoing a second degree burn is another story. Teaching them how to do this when they are operating a semi-auto (which is by definition always loaded and ready to fire when in active use) is insane.
This is yet another reason why semi-autos need to be more strictly regulated that manual-reloading firearms. We don't let people with a regular driver's license drive an 18-wheeler, because there are aspects of the vehicle that bring much higher risk. We don't let them drive kids in a school bus because of the risk.
Users of semi-autos need to be licensed to a higher standard. Untrained people may be able to follow basic rules applicable to all guns such as don't ever point a gun at anything you don't want to destroy, and keep your finger off the trigger until you're ready to destroy something. On the other hand, they do not have the discipline to react calmly when being actively burned. They do not have the foresight to ensure that their ejected casings are not endangering themselves or anyone. They do not have the diligence to wear appropriate clothing in a hot brass zone- things that are basic standards for a metal shop to keep people safe. They do not have the diligence to make sure that they remove the automatically-loaded cartridge from the chamber when they are done using it, and store the weapon in a hardened location.
If you don't secure your 18 wheeler properly and it rolls down the hill and takes out someone's house you will lose your commercial license. If you slack on semi-automatic safety or you aren't aware enough to avoid risky situations where you kill people you shouldn't be allowed to use one.
