Mr 16 is sure right..waivers are just something to make somebody feel good..otherwise ...worthless. I had a friend way back yonder..a bit older. He got a Colt 22 Single Action around 1960-61 or so. Got himself a quick draw rig and promptly shot a hole in the toe of his shoe..within a month he had shot himself in the leg...not once..but twice..the first time just grazing his calf..the second time in the thigh.. Stupid is not easily cured I guess. That being said.. I was working in the yard yesterday..and made what I consider one of the fastest draws I will ever make.. Damn near stepped on a rattler.. I drew and fired in a nice crisp move..and even hit the sucker..course I was using shot loads..LOL. He was just a little pissed off. I carry a single action Uberti 45 when working in the garden or yard(so does my wife). Don't see 'em very often near the house..but I ain't very trustin when it comes to rattle snakes
