I can still hear my old man to this day,,"Boy, if that gun left that door, it will be cleaned when it comes back through it!" "But pap, I didn't even shoot it!" "Boy, I don't care if you didn't even look at the damn thing hard! If it leaves MY house it will be CLEANED properly." Have to give the old man credit, you couldn't find a speck of dust on ANY of his rifles. And you dang sure wouldn't ever have to worry about double loading on a previous load. If my old man found one of my MLers loaded after a hunt, my big butt would have been in a sling for days!
I agree. I never ever go home with a loaded gun.
