Not a handgun, but a lesson learned whether handgun or rifle: At a gunshow, with a 99.99% Pre 64 Win 94, I inflicted its first stock ding on the way out--on the corner of another vendor's case,...despite (what I thought was) being ultra careful (and heading straight to the car but a perilously long trek through a very crowded facility)..Lesson learned, some kind of corollary to Murphy's Law - whenever you really try "too hard"..., and always (always) have at least a sock but preferably padded case with you--or purchase one on-site before taking ultimate possession of the gun. I'm normally all with the "guns are to be used, marks are a part of its history," but the charm/reason for this particular buy was its like-new condition. 55+ years on. That was aggravating...and of course the worst part entirely unnecessary.
