I did something extremely stupid early this morning but for the safety awareness of others I'll share. I normally never have loaded guns in the house. Even in the safe. I did have one loaded sitting in the living room a few days a month ago waiting on a damn red squirrel I think was getting in the house. I was in a hurry when I put it away before leaving for a day or two and didn't unload it. I had to unload my gun safe last night to relocate it early this morning before work. This morning, in a hurry, before putting the guns away I was wiping them down. One swipe with a rag forward, safety off, swiped backwards and bam. The bullet, 22LR HP,went about a foot, hit the heavy gauge wire clamp on the side of the furnace and a piece of bullet bounced back and hit me in the side of the neck. Hurt like hell but Luckily, just a red dime sized welt. Fracking stupid. Won't ever happen again. I was under my pretense that it was unloaded because I never put them away without unloading. Normally before and after "using" I safety check. Fracking stupid.
