What gun? Ah! are guns allowed in this country? Common guys you are smarter than that, no? Good guys and Bad guys only fight and get killed on the tube.
BTW, what is a bullet?

I only have a gallon of gas in my car at any time, its lighter that way (and consequently more fuel efficient) ;-)

I have a picture of my Bug on my work phone, if that doesn't work i have a picture of my 1911 on my personal phone. Always got to have a backup. Both fully loaded of course.

Wow! I get more enlightened on this forum every day. And here I was so concerned that 7 or 8 wouldn't do the trick, I carry 2 spare mags w/ 7 each. Carrying around all that extra weight for naught. Won't have to stay on my weight loss diet for losing the extra 1/4 lb after all. Just don't load up my gun and I am there. Surely the OP was kidding? :headscratch :???:

Hmmm...

Thats about what I would expect from an Aggie. I'm guessing this is some kind of joke...so I'll play along.

...Yea...why carry more than 3 because more than three would be to expensive, just think you could put the money you saved into your 401K, or you could give it to Jesus, after all we know he will protect you once you have missed with your 3 rounds and wizzed in your pants. :evil2:

I've heard that just like in the Wizard of Oz, bad guys melt when water is sprayed on them. My new carry leaks a little bit, but much lighter and easier to carry than a loaded gun. Who'da thunk?

Plus it can be easily Mexican carried, literally NO holster is required. All the benefits of a revolver in a SA package, very easy trigger. I've got some guys on the inside at Mattel so if you want a good deal, send me a PM.

Ahem!
There are more than a few Ags on this forum, and who doesn't like a good Shiner? ;-)

As for the original question, I only carry the one bullet. With my flintlock, the fight would be over before I could reload. Now what is this "Magazine" and "racking the slide" everyone keeps talking about? :biggrinjester:

Laugh all you want, you'd be peeing your pants too if you had to look down the barrel of that bad boy. :shock:

You haven't seen fear until you've pulled one of these on a thug:

Pros: It's scary, and if you paint it black it makes it even scarier. Believe it or not my right hand is banned in Chicago. Also, I'm usually carrying it with me anyway, so it doesn't add weight.

Cons: I can only make that cool slide racking sound once every couple of months, and I have to go to the hospital afterward each time.

MadMonkey, it would be a lot scarier if you tilt it to the side.
