Marblehead Posted June 18, 2014 I broke her lamp - so nunchucks are taboo I blamed the dog- but It didn't work Hehehe. About a year ago I was practicing two-sword Tai Chi in the living room and killed one of my lamp shades. But seriously, collecting concealed blades is a hobby for some people. They are illegal to carry in public but still can be bought and collected if you have the right kind of money. And, of course, the older they are the more money they demand. One's that are documented are very rare indeed. At the last gun show I went to there was a vendor selling ball-point pen stilettos. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thelerner Posted June 18, 2014 This has nothing to do with the OP, but I wanted some input from weapons/gun fans. I've never handled a handgun (did skeet/rifle in boyscout camp). I've got a groupon at a gun range. Thirty minutes instruction, then I can shoot 30 or 40 rounds. I can pick from any hand gun .22, .38. .44 etc., I want to learn how to load and unload safely, where the safety is. What else should I be concerned with and as a beginner who probably won't ever own a gun, any handgun I should concentrate on? For some reason I think I'd be more comfortable with a smaller caliber.

joeblast Posted June 18, 2014 (edited) just stay away from the glocks with the weird double-trigger "safety" on it and you'll do fine. if you want the most simple go with a revolver. unless you're going to shoot a ton of rounds the caliber wont matter a ton unless you've got a desert eagle or something outside of that, gun safety is no different for a long gun vs handgun... -dont point the gun at anything you dont intend to shoot -its ALWAYS loaded -dont even so much as put your finger on the trigger unless you are ready to unleash holy hell at what's at the other end Edited June 18, 2014 by joeblast 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soaring crane Posted June 18, 2014 outside of that, gun safety is no different for a long gun vs handgun... -dont point the gun at anything you dont intend to shoot -its ALWAYS loaded -dont even so much as put your finger on the trigger unless you are ready to unleash holy hell at what's at the other end Yep: it's ALWAYS loaded Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marblehead Posted June 18, 2014 Some people are always loaded. But yes, a handgun should be clean, loaded and locked (safety on). (And safety is off before it is pointed at anything that is going to be fired on.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joeblast Posted June 18, 2014 safety off is the first action after target acquired and sight is generally on it, as I was taught. then its finger on trigger/breath/target sighting. unless you are at a range and firing another one, the safety goes right back on.

Real combat is a little different. If it is facing you holding a weapon pointed at you you best be firing and not playing with your safety. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
