Since triggers are pulled with fingers, not testicles ...
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

African shows are by far the worse with regards to firearm safety.... :bdid:

I've never met a woman that I would trust with my back when the *censored* really hits the fan........go ahead flame away but thats my opinion.

It's a common way of carry over there. However you are suppose to point the muzzle to the side somewhat.

And have the action 'broke'...
Also the announcer said her shot took the bull in the lungs, but it looked like when she shot the bull was quarter too her and imho it was a poor shot to take...

Sweet vid none the less!

i'm going out on a limb here to say i don't think it's common practice to carry in africa with the action broke, on the shoulder, on a sling, wherever etc. seems everyone's always locked and loaded.
