Every AD incident seems to have a human element, or, more accurately, a human failure. This is a guy I grew up with:

A detail not mentioned in the story is the gun was on safe when it fired, confirmed by deputies who responded, and it is part of the group of rifles that was fitted with the problematic Remington 700 trigger. But, he made a critical error when he picked the gun up with his hand over the muzzle.

Be careful out there. My point, already noted, is that a particular design of firearm likely has little to do with an accident that results in maiming or death.
