Was at a dove shoot once a group of use were standing around getting our stuff ready to go to the field. There was a guy ( not me) in the group who wasn't a seasoned hunter . He had borrowed a 12 ga, Model 97 Winchester pump, one of the most dangerous shotguns ever made. He shucked a shell in the chamber and had his finger on the trigger. BOOM , at least he had it pointing in the ground , blew dirt all over us! Couple of guys were so shook up they left. That isn't actually a accident , just a frightening near miss.  An Ithaca Model 37 will do that Mossberg 500 will do it shucking shells. At least I know of 2 that did. One is in Reynolds swamp (purchased a Browning 500 later that day) and the other on the river by Koger island seen an 870 do it too. Some of those guns are not supposed to. A model 97 has a hammer, it's designed to shoot with the trigger held when the forearm slams a shell in the pipe. Bad medicine in the trenches during WWI.
"Why do you ask"?
Too many people spend money they don't have , on things they don't need, to impress people they don't know.
