Yes, I like to drive family crazy (mostly my wife) by pointing out unsafe gun handling by police and other "good guys" especially.
Sweeping a partner 1point
Sweeping a love interest 2 point
Finger on trigger double points
etc.
Cocking the already fired semi (without having decocked/safed it)
-- oh and it is nearly impossible to THUMB cock a full size semi (1911/92F etc) with ONE HAND and WITHOUT changing the grip
(I have big, strong, dexterous hands and I cannot generally do it without putting my pinking under the butt to get leverage)
Same for jacking the slide
Cop walks around all day, maybe even chases bad guy with gun out through three rooms, NOW he jacks the slide, and the apparently loaded firearm never ejects a round.
Guys with shotguns or rifles miss at 5-20 yards, guy with pistol hits moving target at 40 yards
(yes I know there are a FEW people with a FEW pistols who can do this. but YOU know what I mean)
Glock triggers that CLICK when the Glock is empty -- same for single action 1911's
Non-double action pistol that suddenly works that way.
Single action pistol that is being aimed at good guy (usually) but isn't cocked
poor hand position on the pistol by "super hero". any tactical error...etc
