I'd keep pressing him until he gives you a thoughtful answer,

He backed himself into a corner. He'd have to admit that his
thumb
safety is unused, and therefore
useless.

John, correct me if I am wrong but I am under the
understanding that
you do all your live round gun handling at a shooting range.
You do not
have a permit for concealed carry. Is that correct?

The reason I ask is because I think it depends on what you are
doing
with regard to a safety. At the range a thumb safety isn't
used much
in the normal protocol of shooting but if you carry, it may be.

Some people carry with the safety off. Some with it on.
Some with a
round in the chamber, some with the chamber empty. Me? The
few times
I carry, I have a full clip inserted, but the chamber is empty
and the
thumb safety is "on". People will disagree, but I feel it is
safer that
way, for me and for others. If I ever had to use it, the
time it would
take to snap the safety off and rack the slide would be a
matter of a
second or two.




I've carried outside of the house with a round in the pipe and
the
safety on. I've only done that a few times under special
circumstances.
When I do carry, typically, I have a mag inserted but I haven't
yet
racked the slide, so there's no need to use the safety. I have
a belt
carry holster so when I do carry, I have to wear a jacket to
keep the
firearm covered. It's a custom molded holster, and while it
holds the
weapon snugly, the trigger guard is completely free of the
holster. It's
not an expensive holster. I think it was about $75.

Ah, the story changes.

No, Herring, there was always more to it. Remember, I said I
would give
you "an" example. Perhaps your next hobby should be enrolling in a
remedial reading course.

Bull****. Go read your essay.

Hehehe. I've become Herring's obsession. What a giggle.

Well, it's more like enthralled with your knowledge.

You've got us all wondering...earlier you said you never carry with
a round in the chamber, now you
say you do so under 'special circumstances'. What would those be?

A good place to do so, if you have the right permit, would be in the
parking lot at that Springfield Mall down the road from you a short
way,
in order to avoid being carjacked by the friendly MS-13 gangsters who
hang out there.

If there were more posters here, we could start up a "guessing pool" as
to your next obsessive hobby. Does crocheting interest you? Could it?

Nope, been there many, many times with only my car keys for protection.

You referred to 'special circumstances', not me. What were those
special circumstances that required
you to chamber a round?

There are a lot of people out there that literally hate harry krause...
I am sure "special circumstances" are any time he loads his wheelchair
into the van...

Hate is such a strong word.

Don't forget the "literally"....
