Springer safety, its no joke, take a look

Ouch that looks bad but i remember seeing a worse injury somewhere on the internet and it was a thumb that had been splattered and nearly chopped off in a HW 77, the only good thing with these type of mistakes and poor handling is you will never do it twice lol.

I tell you what.., I've almost did it just by closing the barrel on my EVO too fast. I was holding the action with the corner of my right thumb hanging out just a litte close to the breech and it got caught by the closing breech block corner & opening a nasty but no stiches needed patch pinch/cut not far different from this chap. It did remind me that keeping hose digits clear & holding the barrel are VERY VERY important.
