....do you remember when the six shot revolver the police hand gun of choice before the proliferation of high cap semi autos among criminal elements? the police were forced to move to high cap semi autos when they found themselves outgunned. How come, and it's googleable, the ny times did an eleven year study of all shots fired by the NYPD. It includes a transition to hicap semi auto duty arms. Average shots fired by officers at bad guys, 4.7. A single shooting skewed the numbers, otherwise they averaged firing 3.6 shots at bad guy, with a microscopic percentage of times that the bad guys fire back. Go figure, the pure numbers say that five shot revolvers would be considered 'hicap'. I want our police officers well armed, and armed with the message of deterrence, but your theory is probably based on tv horse $hit. Still, you FEEL like penalizing all the rest of the decent law abiding folks.

agreed, colt 1911's and their clones may be the safest of semi auto handguns...but as a type, semi autos are more dangerous than revolvers. particularly in the hands of an inexperienced individual, due to a lack of visibility as to weather the thing is loaded or not. You cannot lump DA semiautos in with SA semiautos, like the 1911. Vast differences, which probably doesn't concern you, as you seem adept at spouting off concerning things about which you are grossly uninformed. Answer this honestly, if you can. A 5 year old child (inexperienced enough for you?) picks up a loaded handgun, in a roomful of people, and begins pointing it around, as a child would do. You're in front of that gun. Would you rather it was a loaded DA revolver, which only requires that the trigger be pulled to fire (no physical safety), a chambered Glock, which requires only a trigger pull as well, or a 1911, which requires hammer cocking, squeezing of the grip safety, AND releasing the manual safety ? A child will likely tire of it before he figures out how to make it go bang. The point? All semi autos are not created equal. Stick to what you know, ed, acetylene and oxygen. SRH
May God bless America and those who defend her.

I prefer wood to plastic, leather to nylon, waxed cotton to Gore-Tex, and split bamboo to graphite.

Two different pistols. [img:left] [/img] The large one is offensive combat weapon that when used with standard factory trigger in condition "hot" must be kept in high quality "hard" holster (plastic) at all times. A ten pound trigger can be fitted to give wider choice in holster selection. The small one is the best close range defensive pistol ever made. Carry options on that pistol are simply unsurpassed. It can be carried in pocket w/o any holster though soft pocket holster is recommended.

I think it is a quilt that Jagermeister embroidered all by himself. And on the other side is a picture of his hero Obama, and the words, "Hope and Change".
After all, Jagermeister proudly voted for the anti-gunner Obama twice. Then he posts pictures of guns here to try to make us forget that he supports the politicians who want to take away our right to own semi-autos and every other kind of gun.
A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.
