Hunter Durham: A lesson in gun safety for a lifetime Hunter Durham relates a hard learned lesson on gun safety a the hand of Otley Gilpin. It was a lesson he's never forgotten, in his hunting career, in the decades since. Response to A Christmas Rifle Story: The day the Devil won out, a little while By Hunter Durham I spent many days and even weeks from the time I was 8 until I got out of high school at the home of Lawrence & Ella Gilpin.. They had all kinds of guns, bullets, shells and ect in the hallway. The best lesson I recieved was when I only had a BB gun. I went hunting with Otley Gilpin, their son, and a master of gunmanship. We had hunted during the day and killed some squirrels and were coming back to the house when all of a sudden, Otley slapped me acros the jaw and knocked me down on the ground. I was terrified that he would do that since he was a person I really respected. He said "Don't ever come within 50 yards of a house with a loaded gun. You have not unloaded you BB gun." Thanks, Mr. Rice, for your story. - HUNTER This story was posted on 2014-12-26 11:50:52
