One in the Chamber

[Glockster69]

go back to him and tell him thanks for the good advice and that you also found out that they just passed a law where you have to yell "DON'T MAKE ME SHOOT YOU!" , 3 times prior to firing you gun in defense

I heard 4 times

No, no, no, no, no!

You have to yell "HE'S COMING RIGHT AT US!" before you shoot.

Today someone told me it was not legal to carry one in the chamber while concealed carrying in Texas.

If anything, it should be illegal to carry WITHOUT a round in the chamber....

It was a coworker. I asked him to show me where it states that law. I will see what he comes up with tomorrow.

Maybe in his case it is a good idea, such as with Barney Fife!

But for the rest of us who responsibly conceal carry, the vast majority of use believe Condition 1 is the only way to carry!

An unloaded gun ain't much good.

You joke, but when I was doing air base security back in the UK during the 1980s, we were required to shout a warning three times before we were allowed to actually shoot! I still remember it..."Stop, stand still!" "Stop, stand still!" Stop, or I'll shoot!" Luckily, I never had to use it. :P

Thank for all the replies and clearing this up. You guys/girls are awesome!(Hilarious too)
Here is the follow up: I politely asked him if he had found the law that stated I couldn't carry one in the chamber. He had nothing too say. Although he did let me know he doesn't feel safe with one in the chamber.
Next time I see him I will ask for the CHL instructors name.

More / proper training will clear that right up. You should recommend that he gets it.

I only let my dog out after he poops on the floor. I only pay my bills after they've shut me off. I only apologize to my girlfriend after she leaves me. I only pay my property taxes after they've auctioned my home. I only chamber a round after I'm dead. Texas laws may be dumb but they ain't friggin' stoopid.

If it isn't loaded, then why carry it?

Whoa!!

A guy from work brought a gun by my desk to look at and while he was unloading it, another co-worker asked "You brought a loaded gun to work?" so I replied "An unloaded gun is just a club!"

 

[Younggun]

LOL.

Hopefully he didn't violate company policy, and the other employee doesn't get y'all in trouble over it.

No — the owner would have said the same thing. There are usually six CHL holders in our office — we outnumber the non's.


ETA: Our only company weapons policy is that new purchases must be brought in and showed off. I've built three AR's in the conference room for employees while on the clock.

It really WOULD have been a good trick if the clock was still on the wall.....
