Glad nothing was hurt but your pride.

When I clear a handgun, I always look to make sure I can see the floor through the top of the gun. Then I check again.

You should see me when I dry fire. I dump the mag, check the chamber, aim, check the chamber again, aim, put my finger on the trigger, check the chamber again, aim, check again....

It's neurotic, I know. I'm just scared there might be an invisible cartridge in there, or that one of those "magic bullets" might have materialized after I closed the action.
