A few years ago at a Willamette Valley gun show in Eugene, 4 or 5 .410 shotguns were discovered to have live rounds in the chambers. It is supected that anti-gun radicals had wandered through loading them in hopes of an A.D. Some of the gun show security people surmised that they used .410, in the ignorant thinking that it's small, so it wouldn't cause a fatal wound. Ignorance of firearms at it's finest.

All Oregon gun shows now require that all guns be rendered incapable of being loaded or fired, with the use of "Zip Straps/Turkey Straps".
