Small caliber automatic mouseguns....what's the attraction?

[WonderNine]

All in stride for someone who thinks firearms development reached it's pinnacle with the COP derringer.

Who's that?

COP .357. Glorified Derringer.
Sure, they are Da' Bomb...
Until you drop it and all 4 barrels fire at the same time. Generally back up in your direction.
Nice. Seems like the perfect gun... for the other guy.

Have you ever owned or even looked at one before? I can't believe that you have. Do you realize that there is only one hammer and that there is no pressure on the firing pins?

Also, haven't you heard, all Glock .40's blow up at 500 rounds.

And anyone who is shot even in the hand with a .45 will get knocked flat to the ground.




It would take a drop of 30 feet and the gun would have to hit muzzle first in order for the inertial firing pin to have enough energy to set a round off. But this would work with virtually any gun.

Lands on it's side....no dice.

Lands on it's back....gee still safe.

Wondernine, trust me hotshot one or two days of 94 does not qualify you to the role of honor. You obviously worry way to much about why other people carry what they do. Do me a favor ignore my post and I'll ignore yours.
My last word on the subject

I'm not here to ignore posts.

I just took issue with the fact that you seem to think we don't have hot summers.

All last summer in the heat I carried .357 everyday. What difference does it make if I only have to do it for 6 months and you do for 8 months? Suddenly, you're the authority on carry in hot weather? uhuh nope.


Another thing....

North Dakota's record high is 121F.

What is your record high?

Oh ya, that's right, 120F

Think twice, post once. Think twice, post once.

As opposed to the Wondernine method: think not at all, post 400 times.

You are not looking for answers to your question. You are looking for arguments. You need to stop attacking people.

People that carry little guns are just too lazy to carry something effective.

This is complete nonsense and I'm sick of reading it over and over again. There are a great many people with modes of dress, climates, back problems, or other life factors that make carrying a large gun an uncomfortable if not infeasible option.

As I said before, it seems to me that some folks live to carry, instead of carrying to live. When you base your daily life around your choice of weapon, IMHO, you've missed the point.

Quote from BlunderWhine:

"maybe CCW isn't for you"


Gee, I appreciate your opinion, but since I have been doing it for about 10 yrs, I really think it might be for me after all.


Maybe its not for you though?

No, it is not complete nonsense. When someone carries a P32 for example as a primary weapon they have made two decisions. One, they wish to have a gun. Two, they have compromised with something like " a .32 in the pocket beats a .45 at home". In short they have bet their life on carrying a gun but not really needing it to save them. Is there anything a mousegun does better than a large gun besides sit in the pocket? I've not yet seen anyone with a mousegun that can get hits as fast or accurately as with a full size weapon. Add to that a minor caliber and the situation is less than ideal.

I most certainly have not missd the point, I'm gonna live. I do not base my life around my carry, just my mode of dress. A mode of dress that incidentally really suprises people with how much hardware you can easily and comfortably conceal. I don't dress much different than I normally would. Live to carry? No, but the few times recently I've been without carry have made me so nervous that I do it all the time. A P32 is not a big enough security blanket for me. Heck if they're that close I got a knife and a bad attitude.

A few gun guru groupie thoughts

-Use enough gun.
-A handgun is supposed to comforting, not comfortable.
-Paranoid? What reason do I have to be paranoid? I've got a gun.

Welp... This one is done.
