    There are no accidental discharges. Only negligent discharges. If your gun goes off then you are 100% responsible no mater the circumstances that caused it to do so.

      There are rare circumstances where a discharge can be truly accidental. Older or defective designs that can cause a discharge if the gun is dropped.

        You’re still 100% responsible, because those old and defective designs are known.
        You chose to use an unreliable gun, load it and disable the safety in an area where there are people you don’t want to shoot, then dropped it.
