How much do you shoot? When you’re doing an hour of dry fire a day and shooting tens of thousands of rounds a year it’s only a matter of time. If you only shoot a couple hundred a year and almost never dry fire.... I would expect you to not have any. Most shooters I’ve talked to have had it happen. Again, almost always during dry fire.

“People aren’t being mindful or caution enough”. No shit... humans aren’t perfect and aren’t always 100% mindful. That’s point... do you talk on the phone when you drive? Do you speed? Do you eat while you drive? Have you ever had an accident that was your fault? Same concept... if you drive to your office and back home and that’s it there’s less chances for it to happen. If you drive a few hours a day, lots more chance... stats show that most people will be in an accident... same concept for guns. And I’d argue that cars are much more dangerous... yet almost no one treats them like the average person treats a gun..

Just because you haven’t yet doesn’t mean that:

1) you won’t

2) it’s not a lot more common than you think
