Oh my. Another of Vito's endless lies.

Don't you understand that getting caught in lies is what causes posters like you and Krusty to be distrusted even when you accidentally slip up and tell the truth? And just like your claim to have unloaded off of your bike over 100 times, this one is bullshit that's obvious to even the slowest among us. California is a 'County Option' State where the various County Sheriffs decide who gets concealed carry permits. That means that in some places it's quite difficult to get a permit no matter *who* you are (and gun-crazy Orange County with it's shiny new female Sheriff is a prime example) and in others they hand 'em out to practically anyone who can show an imagined need, can count to two without making more than three mistakes, and who doesn't have any major felonies on his record. True story: one of my regular customers is a dentist, and *he* -who knows *nothing* about guns- has a concealed-carry permit issued by San Bernardino County because his office has been broken into three times by intruders who -he thinks- seemed to be searching for drugs. I know this for a fact because the last time he paid me a visit he leaned forwards in his chair and his Ruger 357 fell out of his shoulder holster and landed directly on it's hammer with the barrel facing me. It's not the sort of moment you tend to forget, and is the perfect example of an incompetent boob with a fully-legal carry permit who isn't "connected" to anyone in any way ,shape, or form. He asked for a permit out of simple paranoia, and they gave him a permit: that simple. As for open carry, that's a local option. There's no State permit required under any circumstances, but some localities do not permit the carry of loaded weapons. One more Vito lie down the tubes.

If you do know anything about guns, you would know that there is essentially zero chance of a Ruger .357 accidentally discharging in that situation, because years ago Ruger implemented a transfer bar action on their revolvers, making them "safe" from accidental blows to the hammer, unlike older revolvers where the firing pin was an integral part of the hammer. > It's not the sort of moment you tend to forget, and is the perfect > example of an incompetent boob with a fully-legal carry permit who > isn't "connected" to anyone in any way ,shape, or form.

Gee, Mark, as it happens I *do* know about the Ruger system, but for some reason I failed to identify the weapon beyond thinking "it's a gun!" in the half-second or so I had between seeing *something* fall out from under his jacket, and watching it strike the floor on it's hammer. Me, I didn't even have time to react; but I'm certain that you're expert enough to have accurately ascertained the make and model of any handgun from any aspect in that fraction of a second, and then recall the relevant information about Ruger's transfer bar in time to prevent the natural flinch that takes place when one sees *any* sort of firearm fall down while pointing directly at them... http://www.mybluebonnets.com/catalog/bullshit_final.jpg

(And BTW: You're probably not making Mark any happier by attempting to climb on board with him. He's sometimes an unpleasant SOB, but so far as I can tell he's not racist, crazy, or terminally stupid.) |
