I'm just astonished at the utter stupidity underlying many of the
"accidents." Example: how dumb do you have to be to make sure a
firearm
is unloaded before you clean it?

----------------------------------------------

Some of the pistols can be confusing ... especially the ones on the
"MA Compliant" list up here. There are so many supposed "safeties"
on them that you really have to stop and think about the one you are
handling if you don't use it often.

I have a Walther PPK/2. To lock the slide open, you first release
the magazine. That allows the slide to lock in the open position.
Won't lock open if there's a magazine installed.

To release the slide, a magazine must be re-inserted ... either
loaded
or empty. The actual "safety" switch is really a de-cocker. It
puts
a barrier plate up so when the slide is released, it prevents the
hammer from hitting the firing pin.

It took me a while to understand how to use it and it's different
than
some of the other pistols I've tried. I can kinda see how someone
could screw up if they have several guns with different operating
characteristics or procedures.

That's why I like revolvers. Simple.



Is that the PPK M2? I tried but couldn't find the PPK/2 on the Walther
site.

-------------------------------------------------

My mistake. It's a PPK/S (although Walther *does* make a PPK2)
Here's the one I have:

Oh! I guess I gave him credit for stealing intellectual property. My bad.


So when you quote some crap that Fox news stole from somewhere else,
and you steal it from Fox, that's ok. ****in moron.


Oh, no!! That's different if it's a narrow minded right winger doing
it!! Just look at the thread about the town in GA that forces gun
ownership. The right wants less government, except when it helps their
NRA cause to make new laws.
