Here's a quoted safety orientation speech, by Travis Haley, from Magpul Dynamics dvd: Art of the Tactical Carbine Volume 2

"Complacency guys...complacency is a killer --- It can get you killed quicker than a bullet. At an advanced level, things can go fast and they can go wrong fast.

Okay...so you'll again have to police yourselves when it comes to safety, and realize that the more advanced you get, the more skill you get, the easier it is to make mistakes, and that goes for any profession out there, whether you're skydiving, whether you're playing professional sports --- running an gunning out there --- you'll find that the most knowledgeable...the most skilled people, are the ones having the safety issues; the ones that are burning in and having accidents.

So again...realize that as you excell at that ladder of excellence --- that you have to be more safety cautious...allright."
