This is a friend of mine. His life has been changed forever. 

Please take a few minutes to watch as he tells his story.

Seems like it is often the unloaded gun.   After my game is down, I immediately empty the rifle chamber & magazine.

Over the shoulder is a common carry-style in Africa...but it violates the keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction rule.

Very sad, I'm sure the guy will remember the accident forever.

You're right Bear. I always carry my rifle slung over my shoulder with the muzzle pointing up. Not perfect under all circumstances but I think it's better than over the shoulder.
