Keep yer’ booger hook off the bang switch.
Well said. One has to keep safety instructions very simple when talking to the MSM low-T marshmallow journalism majors.
Good advice. But having a live round jammed in the chamber of a gun can be a serious problem. ALL the safety rules come into play. A mechanically malfunctioning gun is a challenge.
The first mistake a person could make would be to underestimate the severity of the situation.
I had an AK variant years ago which jammed so badly I couldn't get the bolt out. I felt fortunate that it hadn't chambered a fresh round. The dealer took the gun back and supplied a replacement.
This might be a good opportunity for Freepers to share their knowledge about handling the worst kind of jams.
