Re: gun confiscation

I believe, in context, he's suggesting people not carry a $3000 custom gun, unless they can accept the risk it ends up in an evidence locker. Elsewhere in the article he suggests carry guns like "the Ruger LC9, SIG 239, Glock 26/27" and says he likes a Glock 19. So, clearly he's not advocating Lorcin or Jennings, or even Hi-Point.

It seems like reasonable advice. If I had a classic sports car, I wouldn't use it for my daily commute. For that purpose, I want a vehicle that won't make me cry if it picks up a few scratches and dings in the parking garage. However, that doesn't require me to sacrifice reliability, power, or whatever practical attributes I find desirable in my daily driver.
