Shit that's a bloody frightening story - on several levels. Sounds like it was only luck that spared your mates life. When I got my FAL quite some years back now, you had to do and pass a safety...

the closest thing to training as far as a new license goes would be the mountain safety course they had to do, but even that requires no real practical knowledge of firearms to complete
