Hunting season is soon upon us. While thoughts turn to the upcoming good times afield, it is always wise to take a moment and think about safety. Short of having empty chambers, muzzle control has always been my greatest concern, instilled incessantly by my father when I was just starting out. The second lesson was never never never have a finger near a trigger unless you intend to kill something. While
THIS INCIDENT did not involve a Parker, it serves to underscore the reasons behind the wisdom of muzzle control and keeping the finger off the trigger unless you intend to kill something.
