does it count as an ND if you pull the trigger, the bolt sticks, you take your hand off to pull the bolt back, and as you tilt it to grab the charging handle the bolt slips forward and fires

>does it count as an ND
Why bother answering? By now we all know that ND's are just a normal and fun part of gun ownership.
inb4 the paste
Only if the gun wasn't pointed downrange. Otherwise it's a clearing proceedure.
Only if you're a Fudd. Every ND is a chance you've shot someone or put a hole in your walls. You want to explain to your landlord why you shot the water heater? Or have to explain to the plumber why the blackwater line is leaking?
if gun go boom anf you no want gun go boom, it be an Negligent Discharge no oopsies allowed
Accidental discharge* ftfy
>Accidental discharge
Negligent Discharge is the proper term. "Accidental discharge" is a descriptive phrase.
If your gun goes off and you didn't meanf or it to happen, you have been negligent. you have commited a Negligent Discharge because your gun was accidentally discharged, and that is negligence on your part. The only exceptions to this are rare circumstances such as range instruction or using a gun as a stage prop, where someone else is responsible for the ammunition. in that case, it can sometimes be their negligence that caused an accidental discharge, and they will bear responsibility for the Negligent Discharge, since their negligence lead to an accidental discharge
>Sometimes shit happens
FTFY
Fortune favors the prepared.
Accidental discharge happens when a mechanical failure occurs that leads to discharge without operator input.
The fact that people refuse to acknowledge that is still boggling my mind.

You're a menace to society and a validation of Red Flag laws.
>he doesn’t know
lmao, you're new here
Oh I know it's a copypasta but thinking that it's some kind of rationalization for putting everyone around you at risk is unforgivable.
I mean, imagine getting hit by an ND and the guy who did it just says "It's just a part of gun ownership".
Sneed
why are these threads a magnet for people with no sense of humor?
Because we know people who have died to NDs. It's just not so funny anymore.
I would call that a "firing malfunction", tbdesu.
Why do tou have to be such a control freak? Maybe it just wanted to go off. I bet you try to control where it's
s pointed too.
the answer to this question depends entirely on whether or not you took your finger off the trigger first
Yes, the image shows exactly where the round gets stuck. Finger fully off the trigger. And if you jiggle it, it will unstick and fire.
>Finger fully off the trigger
in that case the discharge itself did not occur because of negligence, but if that bullet goes anywhere except downrange then you were still negligent as all frick
If it's your fault, it's a ND
If it's the gun's fault (very rare) it's a AD. In this case I would declare it a AD
