I was drilled for two days straight about firearms safety. I was only allowed to hold a loaded rifle at a range and there I was told in no uncertain fashion that should I not follow the SRO (Shooting Range Officer) instructions to a T, I would be expelled forever. Yes it was that strict. THese accidents happen because of poor leadership and lack of discipline. I am sorry for the Family.. You need leadership in the IDF.

Both the military and border troops receive many weeks of training and safety is always part of the training. It is usually the experienced personnel that are most likely to have accidents because familiarity breeds contempt.

Had the silly safety off!

these training sessions.

Every day you read a story about a mishap within the military establishment. No wonder Hezbollah keeps kicking your a$$...

I had a good laugh when I read your post; just as ludicrous as all your posts. Thanks for the light moment.
