He might want to reconsider his statement that he intends to blow an

Well, I never liked anybody who "plays" with guns.. For instance, last
week I was on the phone with someone from this group and they decided
to "prove" to me that they had guns in the home. I heard the sound of
a slide being worked and some other clicks and clacks, then the
distinct sound of a "dry fire"! Right there in the house, a dry fire
with an "unloaded" gun (you all know how I feel about unloaded guns).
I certainly hope nobody else was in the home when this "gun play" was
going on, I can't think of a more irresponsible way to boost ones
ego... I wonder how many "innocents" are killed here in the US every
year by someone playing with an unloaded gun.. Could be more than even
our war in Iraq.. Wouldn't than be ironic? BTW, I was also of the
understanding that it is not good to dry fire a weapon...

Man, to me that is about the stupidist and most irresponsible cry for
help and attention I have ever "witnessed"... dumb ass...

I dry fire my semi-auto handguns when they are unloaded, which, of
course, they always are in my house. Since I am the only one who
handles these particular firearms, and since they are stored
separately from their mags, and since I always check first to see if
there is a round in the pipe before I mess with them, I am not
concerned about firing off a round by accident.

You area a statistic waiting to happen.

Even so, I always assume my semi-autos are loaded, even when I know
they are not. I always check to make sure of their status. That way, I
never shoot off a round "by accident."

I'll wait to read about you in the newspaper.

Now, on those rare occasions when I "conceal-carry," the handgun is
always loaded. But...I don't conceal carry a semi-auto.

You don't have a concealed carry permit in Maryland or Virginia.

Now, before the idiots jump in...when we're out on the trails of the
Shenandoah, where there are feral dogs, bears, and rabid rec.boats
posters ( :( ), I open-carry a semi-auto. In those circumstances, I
have a full magazine loaded with hollow points, a round in the pipe,
and the handgun on safety.

You are going to shoot your self in the foot or leg or one of your
companions one of these days.

Considering your lack of height and your lackadaisical attitude
towards safety, you should stay away from firearms, Scotty. You'd
shoot yourself in the testicles. If you had any.

Your confidence in yourself is amazing.

A better use of your time than posting here, Bert, would be waiting for
godot.
