Yeah, I agree. But when it's a literal gun, better safe than sorry. "It won't because I'm not stupid" doesn't cut it

Safeties get flicked off and then your back to the 'unsafe' condition which isn't a concern. And hammer blocks are standard since like the early 50s

No gun unless it's something like a prerecall sig is going to go off my itself if you drop it

When I say "decocking the hammer", I don't mean doing the "hold the hammer back with your thumb, pull the trigger, and slowly ride that hammer forward". That shit is asking for trouble. Used to do that with my 1911. Never had a mistake doing it, but the potential for mistakes was (eventually) enough to dissuade me from doing it ever again

I'm not arguing 1911s, hence why I said 50s and not 1911

Your concerns about the LCP are dumb

I mean, I have other concerns besides it having a different form of safety than I'm used to.

It's Handlet-sized (Obviously), which makes it harder for an ogre like myself to manipulate it, it has less capacity (obviously), and since it's polymer the recoil would be greater.

The trigger is like 8 pounds and a full inch you aren't accidently pulling that unless, again you don't even have a trigger holster.

Oh, you're a fudd, I forgor

I suppose I am. But I'm slowly coming around. Much of my criticisms stem from poorfaggotry

I'm hoping 2019 will be the year of the AR for me, but I have other priorities

Oh, and an excessively heavy trigger with a long pull is a problem, not a solution. But I think you knew that already 😉

Depending on a switch that can be accidently switched on or off at an inopportune time for saftey is less ideal the retard strengthing a way past a meh trigger.

....what

I can barely understand your contrarianism as is, John, we don't need to add alcohol to the mix.

Heavy triggers are better than manual safeties, which were a product of unreliable hammer and striker blocks and lack of training both of which are lately non issues now

Whoa, whoa, hold up. Lack of training is by no means a non-issue.

By both your and my own admission, range trips are rather sparse.

Lack of training in terms of not knowing you aren't supposed to put your finger in the trigger gaurd when you don't intend to shoot and not pointing guns at things like pets *matt*

Shit, I forgot that sometimes god will materialize a bullet into a gun you've cleared multiple times, just as a divine joke

you've set me straight, John

I'm just happy you remembered, I think that was one of our first conversations.

Remembered? I still do it.

😄

Don't point a shotgun at your cat

Wouldn't you be HAPPY if I blew my cat away, though?

No, once you accept responsibility even for one of society's mistakes you need to see it through.

Poor John. The duality of man is strong in this one

And I never said I want all cats violently killed

Just that it would be nice if they were gradually phased out.

😺 😺 😺

Nice

That cat looks like one of those perpetually crying retard cats on memes.

It's just sleeping

Be Nice 😠

Fucking hell John what is wrong with you?

How old is your cat

Mine is like, 12ish
