I agree with you absolutely, here some people call them "tragica fatalità" that translated means "unfortunate things"...

Waaay back, when I was still a PFC in the Army I obtained a pretty nice early Walther PP in .22 caliber. It had little original finish but no pitting and a a bright bore. I ran it through a box full of ammo and was cleaning it in the bedroom of our quarters. BLAM! punched a hole in the bedroom window and lodged the bullet in the patio fence of the neighboring quarters. I claimed that the hole in the window was from an errant mop handle when I was cleaning under the bed...the facility engineers knew a bullet hole when they saw one but didn't raise a fuss. Times have changed.
