Oh, I remember :) , but I think unless you're in a crowded area(in which I don't recommend you carrying in a rifle) I think your chances of hiting anyeone else are still scarce. Otherwise by pointing down, you risk highly of accidentaly blowing off your or someone else's foot. Myself, I value highly my body integrity :)

I thought crowded meant highly populated.

The secret to that is not aiming at your feet.

difficult to be sure of it if you're walking(your feet and hands move). Unless you keep it down on a diagonal line holding it with both hands, but then again it easier to hit someone else walking close to you. hell I don't know. Thank God I don't have to do it...
