then, your experiance was worth the education.:} well said.

i was lucky, at a young age, i witnessed a N O fail at a public range, he left with a bloody face, and not on his feet.
i dont know what type of ammo, or how the rifle was set up for sure,. cal. ect.
but ill never forget, the look on his face.
for years, a gunstore i used to regular, had a N O on the wall, that was in bits..
and another that the DOW used to have on a board for display for the hunter ed classes..
and another that used to be displayed in a hardware store in Frisco Co..
they only made around 2000 rifles total.
with that many that have failed just in my small little spot of the world, id say thats bad odds.
funny thing..
iv never seen in person. a blown up SHT 1903. though i know they have failed as well.
ill shoot a SHT 03, but wouldnt ever shoot a NO or S A .
