Don't be hatin, playa!

Look, I am not going to argue this with you. I am not going to advocate carrying a 1911 at half cock. All I am saying here is hammered guns get de-cocked.Always have, always will. They have been safely decocked since way before the 1911 ever came along and will continue long after their popularity goes away. Now, go argue with someone else

This is like the gun guy way of putting 1,500 dollar rims on a 400 dollar car That said, if you got it, use it!

You have got to be kidding me! Of coarse a revolver doesn't cock itself. Neither does a lot of the rifles and shotguns. Point is, if the gun was cocked, it had to be de-cocked.

I'm not advocating doing it either. Just stating a lot of folks did it. People also had to let the hammer down on revolvers, rifles, and shotguns too yanno...

He's right. You won't find many talking about doing it on the super uber tacticool gun boards, but it did happen...a lot! Lots of cops used to carry that way, too, back "in the day". John Q public felt it was a safer way for them to carry after years of seeing them carry DA revolvers with hammers down.

Starts this Thursday!

Endind up sleeping all day as expected and missed all the bbq brouhaha. Just ordered a pizza and opened some Mad Dog so all is not lost

1911- cocked&locked. The safety is the natural spot for your thumb to rest on 1911s.

I expect to nap for most of today if breakfast is any indication to the rest of the day's meals. Here at Dad's, I started out with a medium steak & eggs, hashbrowns, and toast. Now it's time to start the hunt for a BBQ stand for lunch. Got three hours to go! Will report back...

I may be young, but I am still an adult and more then capable to care and think for myself. There is no reason for anyone to care for me. mmmkthanks!

Says the guy who derails more threads then anyone else.

I've carried all of those except the glock and hk. What does that say bout moi? That's exactly what I look for when buying a new car

I'm sorry, but I just don't have a fish handy that's willing to eat me to prove it to you. If you need any more proof then all the teeth, esophagus stomach chambers (going by the later versions it was a whale and whales have 3, IIRC) and stomach acids then I don't know what to tell you.

How about Jonah and the fish....

I'm not going to knowing let someone I don't know into my home armed either. I'm sorry, but I'm just not that trusting with strangers when it's one on one like that. But, no way in hell would I ever shoot, or point a loaded gun with it's safety off at someone I invited in my home just because I saw what I thought was a gun. To attempt that, you're risking them pulling their gun thinking they're getting robbed, etc. At best, you're looking at a trip to the pokey' after they call the cops on you.

I never knew the word 'redneck' was offensive. Usually it's a term folks are proud of The most common response to being called a redneck is: "Yup :spits: damn proud too boy"

I wonder what world event has caused God to punish that deer

I can assure you that's no beer gut Mike. She weighs just at 100 lbs. .

This is what happens when you like 80s movies and get board... As an update to this pic... I bring you wheel thrusters! And just so that I can compete with the Selma thread, I bring you this pic! .

1) That's above my eye level 2) That posting is on an automatic door which means you're unable to see it when you enter I have actually never seen those postings! GTK!

I heard he got nailed in San Fran ...

I've never had anything cause my insurance to go up. Wrecks, sr-22, tickets....nothing. I say if one speeding ticket makes his premiums go up then it's time to find a new agent.

CNN likes to put up and leave up polls to toy with the emotions of gun boards. That is all

Daniel. In real life he's only a 12 YO little gurl
