I hate stories like this:
“…Cody Morgan , 26, and Jeffry Hertz Jr., 25, were hanging out at Park Central Apartments in Orlando.
Morgan brought over his .38-caliber Taurus. Hertz brought out his gun-cleaning kit.
Morgan cleaned his gun, while Hertz sat across from him on the couch.
When Morgan finished cleaning his pistol, he handed things over to Hertz, who began to clean his 9 mm. Ruger pistol.
While that was going down, Morgan began loading his gun with five rounds, the police report says.
That’s when Morgan’s gun accidentally went off. The bullet went through Morgan’s left hand and hit Hertz in the upper right arm.”

There was no explanation of how the accident happened, but this could have been prevented by pointing the gun in a safe direction and keeping your finger off the trigger.
