Funky Things Folks Do

Not open for further replies.
People who buy a gun and THEN go to a forum asking people to "school them" on it.
People who order accessories and THEN ask questions about it.
 
People who scoff at concealed carry guns as "not powerful enough" ... who don't carry their .499ExtremeDeathKiller giant pistols except to go play commando on a rental range

People who use rental ranges more than twice a year (seriously, there's a club somewhere that won't annoy you with stupid rules and extreme fees)

Fudds
 
I bought my pistol lnib from a store, and the salesperson was telling me how it had belonged to a regular customer. He then proceeded to tell me how strange this customer was because he always cleaned his brand new guns first thing he got home. I didn't think it pertinent to mention I would do the same thing when I got home.
 
FIVETWOSEVEN:
Hundreds of thousands of older double action guns are not perfectly safe to carry hammer down on a loaded chamber and leaving the chamber empty is standard procedure. Of course, the real problem here is anyone who refuses to accept the idea that there have been changes in technology since 1945.

A coworker does that, but he takes it to the extreme with his Ruger GP100 and it's 6 chambers:

1. Shell case and primer only (to scare them)
2. Shell case, primer, powder with the end taped shut to hold the powder in (to scare them more :confused:)
3. Wax bullet load, to scare them even more :what:
4. Shotshell
5. .38 Spl JHP
6. .357 Mag JHP

LOL Tell him there are regular .38's., .38 Long Colt's, and .38 Special +P so now he needs a nine-shot revolver!

Tell him to replace the last round with a signed, blank check rolled up to fit in the chamber. That's to pay his burial costs.

He will get one trigger pull, that being on the primed case. The primer will back out, basically wedging against the frame.

If he's able to pull the trigger due to adrenaline rush, then the same thing will happen with the primed case with powder. (Which won't be any louder than primer alone, as there's no pressure)

If he's able to grind out a third shot, that primer will also back out, making a 4th shot a total and complete impossibility.

Maybe while the bad guy is laughing at this doofus, he can run away.

The use of the word "inherently" in firearm related topics drives me nuts at times.

Funky? Y'mean like popping rounds out of your magazines to get down to the "now legal" 7 round maximum? Seemed funky to me at the time. Bet no bad guy would do it.

But then
Funky State (NY) => funky people => funky governor => funky laws

I (used to) love NY :barf:
