This is why it is so important to Know Your Weapons. Where is the muzzle? What is the offsite between the muzzle and the sights? Just because you can see down the sights doesn’t mean that the muzzle is clear.
Think he can sell this as a Speed Holes mod? I’d love to know what he told his spouse when he got home. Did he go with something like road debris hit him or was he honest and just told the truth. He F*cked Up.

Always follow the four basic rules of Gun Safety:
- Always keep firearms pointed in a safe direction.
- Treat all guns as though they are loaded.
- Keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready to shoot.
- Always be sure of your target and what’s beyond it.
This is a clear violation of Rule 2. Putting the scope directly to your eye is a bad idea. It is definitely not treating that weapon as if its loaded.
