Nail on the head. The workout in the AM is the anchor. Everything can go to sht, but if I work out in the morning I am less stressed because I DIDN'T MISS A SESSION.

BTW, I missed today's session. Feeling incomplete. Might lift when I get home if my kid wants to play on my PC (in the same area as my rack and bars).

You guys are motivating me to wake up an hour earlier everyday, instead of working out in the evenings. I don't know if I should be grateful or angry.

1st thing in the am is GOAT.

Except for the actual getting up part . . . but then everything else is GOAT. Once you are used to it, it's hard to beat.

Yeah, it's the getting up part that will be hard for me. The funny thing is my body naturally wakes me up at 5 or 5:30 every morning anyway, I just force myself to go back to sleep for another hour or hour and a half before my alarm. Screw it though. I'll get my ass up tomorrow morning and do it.

I don'tworryabout it, I train to prevent it.

Just watched Saving private Ryan again to compare it to Hacksaw Ridge. Hacksaw Ridge is a great movie, but Saving Private Ryan is damn near perfect and is at the top of the pyramid of war movies. I do think Hacksaw Ridge > Tears of the Sun, We Were Soldiers, and about = to Black Hawk Down

I wouldn't say I worry about it. I realize that a gun has potential to do damage if I'm not careful and I take the proper precautions with it, just like I would anything else.

Most "accidents" involve someone being an idiot and not following the rules . . . so don't be that guy or around those guys and all should be peachy. But the odds of anything unexpected happening involving you and a gun are a ton lower than what you face getting in a car every day.

I don't mean preventing an incident, if that's what you mean. I'm talking about the first time you held a loaded gun, weren't any of you worried you'd somehow still pull the trigger by accident, it's a mental thing obviously. I haven't had the chance to hold one until about this age, so I guess that could play into the mentality.

Oh, nah bro, got my first gun at 5. I can imagine having that problem if I had started older though

I see, a few months ago, my friend had his conceal just sitting in-between us in his truck. I asked if I could see it and when he was handing it to me, I immediately asked him to take it back and asked him to unload it and everything. Idk why, I was just really worried I guess.

lol I can't believe I'm actually talking about this, but it happened.

I think I'd prefer someone be somewhat afraid of it and understand the severity of the situation than some who would have no problem being inexperienced and picking a loaded handgun and waving it around.

It's just a matter of getting used to the controls and understanding how it works. When you understand how it operates and you follow the 4 safety rules, it's nearly impossible for anything to accidentally happen. It's once you start playing around or getting complacent that negligence can happen.

I definitely don't joke around like that nor would let anyone touch a weapon around me like that.

It'll take some time I guess, thanks.

I've done it a few times (workout in am), but never could get used to getting up that early. I usually leave my house @ 6am to head to work. That means I would have to be leaving my house for the gym @ 4am. That's not happening on a regular basis.

The evening crowd can certainly be annoying though...

Yeah of course, gun safety should be a constant thing in the back of your mind whenever you're handling a gun. My hard and fast rule is that there's never a round chambered in any gun in my house unless it's my carry pistol and it goes right in the holster on my hip afterward, and first thing I do after getting home is un-chamber it again. If I never have a round chambered then I can't negligently discharge one, and I'll have time to chamber one if someone starts to break in while I'm home since I keep loaded mags in most of them. I check the chamber anyway before dropping the hammer as well just in case a round grew a brain and found its way in there.

I would be worried if someone who wasn't familiar with guns didn't react like you did if I randomly handed them one. That would show a dangerous lack of understanding/respect for the power of a firearm.

I think Band of Brothers and The Pacific are better then SPR, being 10 hours long allows them to go much deeper with character/plot development. I just finished up the Pacific after not having watched it for years, its a really powerful series.

The safety rules overlap for a reason. That reason is so that when you always go out of your way to follow every one of them at all times, even if you mess up as an imperfect being and inadvertently or inattentively violate a rule, nothing catastrophic will happen because the rules overlap.

If you get complacent or careless because you know the rules overlap, that is when you get one slip-up or mistake or mr murphy away from serious consequences.

If you're loading and unloading your gun literally every time you come and go from your house you are creating thousands and thousands of unnecessary opportunities to goof.

My guns get loaded and stay loaded unless they're being cleaned or doing dry fire.

The thing about that you end up handling a loaded gun a whole bunch which gives you that many more chances to screw up.

Watch for bullet setback if you continually chamber the same round.

If I never have a round chambered then I can't negligently discharge one, and I'll have time to chamber one if someone starts to break in while I'm home since I keep loaded mags in most of them. I check the chamber anyway before dropping the hammer as well just in case a round grew a brain and found its way in there.

I would be worried if someone who wasn't familiar with guns didn't react like you did if I randomly handed them one. That would show a dangerous lack of understanding/respect for the power of a firearm.
I'll take note of that. A bit ago when I was mentioning the scenario, I was thinking if I were my friend, I would have never handed someone who has no experience with guns a loaded gun just to look at it to even begin with.

Yeah, that's pretty stupid.

Also, as a general rule, it is common practice not to hand a loaded handgun to anybody, anyway. They can load it themselves if need be. Some people extend that to all firearms. Personally I don't think I ever hand a loaded gun to anybody except a couple I trust and then really only when on a live/hot firing line.

Pretty much.

Had a negligent discharge once. Took a few friends shooting. At the end of the day, I was laying my firearms on the table for safety check before bagging them. Got to talking, and one of my friends dropped the mag out of a firearm he was shooting, and laid it on the table without me noticing.

Got done talking, and before I bag them, I point the firearm downrange, and drop the hammer. Went to the last firearm my friend put down, pointed it down range casually, and pulled the trigger. *BANG*. He left a round in the chamber. Scared the crap out of me because I wasn't expecting it, and almost dropped the firearm.

Took a minute to process what happened, and realized i didn't safety check it. Friend apologized profusely, but I was cool. Round went safely downrange and into the dirt.

Just goes to show, follow all the rules, and if something does happen, it doesn't kill someone.

Watch for bullet setback if you continually chamber the same round.
but you're also under the impression where the gun doesn't have a round in the chamber, and could get treated as such.

When you always keep one in there you know, and it will always be treated as such.


just my opinion
