To all the EMTs, first of all thank you very much for what you do.
This is just a question out of curiosity. No matter how it sounds, if someone ever has to show up and save my life I don't give a darn about my stuff. Save my life, the rest is replaceable.
I am just curious, what do you do when you show up at a scene and someone you are saving has a gun on their person. Say I were to get in an accident on the way home and was knocked out. I have a loaded pistol on my hip. Do you leave it at the scene? Secure it in the ambulance, hand it to police if they are there? I am sure it wouldn't be a big deal for someone on this forum, but do they train EMTs how to handle and clear firearms just in case they come across them on the scene?
Like I said it is just stuff and in the end not important. I'm just an insanely curious person.
