Many years ago before i knew better I carried my first gun, a Colt Combat Commander 9mm in a shoulder holster with a round in the chamber and hammer down. At the time I had a new 69 Corvette and the heat riser (unknown to me at the time) was making a strange noise. I was in the car and bent down to hear it better when my Commander fell out of the holster pointed directly at my face. At the time I was only concerned with damaging the gun. When I got home I looked over the gun and removed the chambered round which clearly had a firing pin indentation. I always felt after that I was living on borrowed time.
