Yeah, that was off topic, a complete derail, my apologies.

Those are firearm issues that can and do still happen. People hunt with vintage, often worn out guns AND many are poorly maintained. I bought, sold and fixed enough to know.

As far as hunting with someone. Most of my buddies were hunting for food. It was a different time, in a different place. You hunted with what you had, or you didn't hunt at all and went hungry. Not one hunting accident that I have ever heard of among them. We worked on the ocean where a slip and fall was gone and drown, safety equipment was nonexistent and you watched each other's back. It is incredible how fragile life has become all of a sudden.
