if the story is actually funny, thats one thing, but it wasnt. so you're basically just teaching people who arent experienced with guns that "these things are bad, and we shouldn't have them."

Sounds like you need to not have guns in your house if your bf is that stupid and careless.

It's idiots like your boyfriend that makes the rest of us not able to own guns

There's no such thing as an "accidental discharge", only "negligent discharge" if you're not capable of handling a weapon safely then for your own sake and those you love.... Don't pick one up! OP's boyfriend should seriously think twice before handling another firearm.

He could of killed someone shooting into the neighbours x

i love guns but how the **** are u so stupid

I feel like some big parts of the story are missing here.. first off, if that happened to the neighbors house ops boyfriend must have been right up next to the house because the neighbor though he drilled a hole into the wall. second of all would the neighbor have at very least heard the gun fire or found the bullet? also if I thought someone drilled a hole into my wall id be quite upset to say the least.. thank god no one ended up injured or killed from this! I hope there is a follow up to this because either way this could have ended very badly.

what size round was it....call me crazy but guns are not dangerous if you are safe hell I just took my 8 year-old cousin shooting today first time he ever shot a 12 gauge he was so happy (yes I had to help him hold it an yes I took the shock in my shoulder not his )

OP, is your boyfriend "special"? Only an idiot would be unsafe enough with their own weapon to accidentally discharge it. To your boyfriend, you sir, are a careless imbecile. Sell your firearm to a licensed dealer, do not purchase a replacement.

I really wish the neighbor had noticed it was a bullet and called the cops. And I'm really, really, really grateful it was a napkin holder and not someone sitting down at the table or a baby in a highchair. All guns are ALWAYS loaded. Always. Even if they are apart and in four pieces and you can see the empty chambers, you ALWAYS treat a gun as if it is loaded. There is no possible excuse for having a loaded gun go off in an apartment, other that it being dark as he tried to shoot a rapist in his apartment. And even then...you DO NOT shoot towards anything but the outer wall and you still hope to hell no one is on the other side of it. IMHO, you use knives and such in an apartment. Never a gun. Hopefully, he will Darwin Award himself soon before it IS a baby on the other side of the wall!
