I heard that and have him the thousand yard stare and he quickly realized how I felt towards that remark and changed the subject quickly. He truly believes pistols can just GO OFF! If that's the case then we might be in trouble and how in the world are we still functioning with workin limbs if they just go off? Surely we would have been blown away by now. He does not know I carry and I keep it that way. I am very private about carrying my firearm unless it's weekends and I OC just about every where but as far as events and other places of hanging out with those you enjoy being around i keep it to myself. I have never actually known anybody personally who believes they can just go off. I have proved that theory wrong over and over everyday by carrying a gun. In my job there is a lot physical activity and hopping over obstacles and sometimes haveing to crawl on the ground and that gun gets as much shock from landing or falling back as I do and it stays perfectly ok.
Has anybody ever told you something like this?
Does your friend believe gun free zones saves lives too?
