March 9, 200520 yr LOL. That's funny. I love it how everyone starts getting loud and nervous as soon as he asks for the rifle.
March 9, 200520 yr Obviously he didn't do his NRA Safety course !!! :wavey: 28 going on 29 yrs of handling and using firearms , I have had numerous misfires and malfunctions but never had even one accidental discharge ... this guy's supposedly a cop/law enforcement officer and he doesnt even know how to fully clear his sidearm ... I hope he was immediately fired the stupid fuck on a side note ... he kinda looks like CoCo the Gorilla that knows how to use Sign language .
March 9, 200520 yr LOL Hysteria...count yourself as lucky...I had a Bryco .380 "hammerless" fuck up on me in 1993...the indicator pin broke off the firing pin, and the cheap ass metal used in the slide developed a burr in the travel tunnel, so the pin hung up about halfway back. If you know guns, you know that the indicator pin would be visible if the firing pin was ANYWHERE except all the way forward (if the indicator pin had still BEEN there, that is)...anyhow, the pin had broken off when a student had been chambering a round, the student hadn't pulled the slide all the way back, so the firing pin didn't lock (where it would have been visible, even without the indicator pin on it), and I made the hasty conclusion that that meant it *couldn't* have chambered a round (stupid me, trusting a Bryco to have no excess travel in the slide)...so I went to show the class (bunch of woman wannabe shooters) how the extraction pin works, and, naturally, as soon as the slide moved, it moved the burr out of alignment with the firing mechanism, and released the firing pin. In a post in another thread, I mentioned how bad physical therapy can hurt...now you know why my hand needed extensive physical therapy...lol, the round went through my left pinky metacarpal (the palm bone attatched to the pinky), severed both sets of tendons that run along that bone, and did some damage to the nerve that feeds the feeling on the inside of the pinky, and outside of the ring finger, of that hand. Took three surgeries, 8 months in a cast, and 18 months of physical therapy to get up to the best situation I could with it...which was 90% use, and 100% normal grip strength...can't use the pinky in typing, or in anything that requires I move it seperately (like piano playing, violin, or classical guitar...can still play chorded guitar, though), since the only reason it CAN move is the docs attatched one of each the upper and lower tendons from the ring finger to the pinky. Basically, what I'm saying is ANYONE can fuck up with a gun, no matter how well they know them...all it takes is one moment of overconfidence, and lady luck being a bitch.
March 9, 200520 yr omp posted a link to an artical about this in the LOTD section about a year ago. First time seeing the video though gg. That guy was m3n though, he continued teaching the class well after getting shot.

Jennings/Bryco have long been known to be the King of California manufactured Crap handguns . If I am not wrong .. I believe the Bryco had that neat little sequence of putting the safety into the Fire postion to unload ... nice design if you like to blow your foot off 1. All guns are always loaded. 2. Never let the muzzle cover anything you are not willing to destroy. 3. Keep your finger off the trigger until your sights are on the target. 4. Always be sure of your target and what is beyond it
March 10, 200520 yr lol that was great "i'm the only one in this room that is professional enough to handle this gun" BOOM
March 10, 200520 yr Yep Hysteria, it did...like I said, took 2 seconds of me being cocky enough to believe I KNEW a gun was safe enough to ignore basic safety rules...and lady luck decided to show me what an asshole I was for being capable of being so damned cocky. Not the first, or the last, time I've fallen prey to that particular vice...but at least I don't fall prey to it the same way TWICE, ever...lol And Bryco isn't cali maufactured, is it? I thought Jennings/Bryco was subsidiary of New England Arms?
March 10, 200520 yr Im about 99.99% certain its a Southern California manufacturer. They were commonly known as the gang banger gun maker . Their substandard materials resulted in $100.00- retail handguns and on the street they went for as low as $5.00 - $10.00 (brand new) I do believe they were sued quite a bit and had some family probs and a portion of the company broke up and Bryco might be made in Arizona or New Mexico now . Not all that up to date on them . Was awhile ago I use to hit the gunshow curcuit . Now I just order online or through my FLL dealer directly through the factories. Only 1 of my guns is US made (Kolar) .. the rest are Italian and I do have 1 brit . all in all they have much higher standards than the US Factories.
March 11, 200520 yr Can't argue with you there, bro...except I do have a few US guns in the house...but names like S&W and Remmington and Ruger.
