I was thinking about this term when I heard somebody say it the other day at the gun show.
Sure, we all know what it means... or do we?
I think there's something missing in this saying.
Yeah, we know that LOAD means "Put bullets in the gun".
And turning the safety on LOCKs the slide closed on my .45, right?
But wait a minute... if I lock it first, I can't load it!
I'm hoping that somebody here knows where this term originated from, and can tell us why it's not "Load and Lock".
What about it? Anybody know?
