Texas Gun Lovers Start to Think Open Carry Isn’t a Great Idea

[Savage20]

I carry a 7-shot revolver but only load it with 6. I carry it hammer down on an empty chamber because guns are notorious for firing by themselves, or by a tank top jamming up the trigger and defeating the 12lb pull.

This is what I have...


but in exercise gear, elastic waist, non-belt slacks or skirts, it's a bit of a struggle at times.

Why do I doubt that you've ever owned a revolver in your life?.....

Why do I doubt you have read any of Grouchy Smurf's posts other than his troll posts.

You make that sound as if he sometimes posts something else. But he entertains us every day.

And I agree.

You do realize that it's getting harder to separate intentional satire from natural stupidity these days.....just ask the folks who write for The Onion.

Yours does not have a hammer block built-in? Not aware of any of the contemporary revolvers that don't have the hammer block.

LMFAO

It's never been about not liking Open Carry. It's about an intentionally poorly crafted law in Texas. To be refined hopefully in the next legislative session.

Shot placement is everything.

No, It's about him very clearly hating open carry, and doing everything he can to stop it. His history and his own words prove that.

While I agree with Maverick, he by no means, was the only opposition to passage of Open Carry - virtually every big city, liberal Democrat was onboard with trying to stop its passage. I tend to think the winning side of legislators probably did their best, with what they had to work with, in getting the thing passed. At least the door is open now and there will be legal improvements made to the law in the coming years. Since it will be shown the OC law hasn't turned Texas into the "Wild West" as so many of those liberal Democrats had predicted. The legislature just needs to work for future improvements AND bypass any 'pet bills' that don't open and expand the Second Amendment for Texas citizens.

They have been screaming "blood in the streets" & "Wild West" bullshit since concealed carry came up, and none of it has ever seen the light of day in over 30 years, but they still continue to sing the same old worn out song.

Crush, kill, mangle, maim, destroy.

What we need [in the legislature] is a Trey Gowdy-type persona who will cite their quote back to them and put them on the defensive asking them to explain why their prediction hasn't come true. And then offer up some snappy little summary that just exposes them for the fools they are. {Probably can tell I'm a pretty big fan of the South Carolinian, huh?}
