Sometimes guns do fire unexpectedly.

This is from Russia. The instructor chambers a rifle and it goes full auto. He gets hit.

Thanks for sharing. This video and this one I'm posting now show the importance of keeping your gun pointed downrange... and keeping a firm grip on the thing!

Thank goodness INGO knows this because an 870 in Alabama decided to fire by itself.

*Truth spoken, gong sounds*

Firing pin must have been stuck forward in the firing pin channel in the bolt. Can happen from primers getting lodged in there. Pretty scary. Always be leery if your gun is puncturing primers.

Wonder if that rifle in Russia was an SKS...

Installed one of these when I had my SKS

That's why some AKs have spring loaded firing pins, not free floated. Not sure why more AKs don't do that. I'm far from an AK expert though.

It’s like if Alec Baldwin had picked up a sks instead of a revolver!

The *exact* thing in the second video happened to me with the absolute worst firearm I have ever owned (an Accu-Tek AT-380 MK II... don't judge). Fortunately I was pointing downrange, and also outdoors (so I wouldn't expect much ricochet or shrapnel if I'd hit the ground close to my feet. When I took it apart I found the firing pin was actually bent, I think from a combination of hot ammo and "gee this gun is poorly designed".

Does not appear to be sticky finger however given the gyroglyfics of his make ready and his ammo acrobat stunts in unloading, I would guess he has been inside the weapon with dremel tool enhancements. Just a guess.

Rule #1:

ALWAYS keep the gun pointed in a safe direction.

I've got my bolt/carrier bagged up ready to send to them for a full rework lol. I'm not taking any chances.
