A\u00a0Brooklyn<\/a>\u00a0rifle manufacturer has asked arms dealers nationwide to make extra safety inspections after discovering it accidentally shipped four guns loaded with live ammunition.<\/p>\n

Henry Repeating Arms<\/a>, a maker of lever-action rifles like ones used in the 1860s and 1870s, said inventory checks revealed no other loaded weapons.<\/p>\n

“We would never want anybody to get hurt,”\u00a0Anthony Imperato<\/a>, the\u00a0Park Slope\u00a0<\/a>company’s president, said.<\/p>\n

As a rule, firearms are distributed unloaded to prevent potentially deadly accidents.<\/p>\n

Every gun made by Henry Arms is test-fired before it is sold, a common practice in the industry. The rifles are then supposed to be checked to make sure no rounds remain, but Imperato said an error allowed a few guns to be distributed still loaded for the test-firing procedure.<\/p>\n
