I'll just copy and paste something MaitresseErica wrote in answer to your statement. "Asserting that you will never need your firearm in a moment's notice is false and foolish... says me and everyone else who operates firearms regularly... "


How many times in your life have you needed your weapon at a moments notice?[8|]

As for your definition of "Ramboesque", I disagree.

That is only because you are wrong.

What are your credentials to determine that this is "ramboesque"?

The ability to read the following sentence.


For me, I would want a weapon available at a moments notice, under any possible circumstance


So, your "credentials" are that you have an ability to read that is equal to kids in grade school? Quite impressive!

Tell me luvmuffin... If there were dependable easily used technology in the future that would limit the operation to only the owner would you approve of it? And if you did would you be in favor of a law requiring all new civilian weapons to be equipped with the device?

If not why?

Pretty much what Bama said. As dependable as the technology might get it can still fail. There are already enough things that can fail on even the best quality firearms such as ammo or a rough spot on the feed ramp or a faulty magazine. I have a Glock Model 23. When I shot it for the first time I kept getting stove pipes (empty case hanging up in the ejection port). It happened way too many times for 100 rounds (2 different ammo types). I called up Glock and they suggested I was shooting with a limp wrist. I said bull shit and sent it to them under warranty. They sent it back to me and told me nothing wrong. Again I take it to the range and 150 rounds later its still hanging up at least once or twice on every magazine full. It did it with my friend shooting it too. I sent it back again with the 2 magazines I was using and this time it came back with a new recoil assembly. A couple of thousand rounds later and I haven't had any problems. The Glock is an ultra reliable handgun. A friend had a Sig Sauer .380, another quality handgun that started hanging up. We finally figured it out after several trips to the target range. The problem was lint in the crevice around the extractor pin spring.


And your own choice of handgun proves this isn't about reliability so stop making up excuses. If you really cared about reliability you would have bought a good quality revolver.

And you and a friend made several trips to the range without fully cleaning a weapon that was hanging up? No wonder your guns stop working.


My choice of handgun proves absolutely nothing.

The lint was trapped in a tiny crevice we just couldn't see until we used a magnifyer. He had to work it out with a dental pick. The he flushed with break free. You mean no wonder you know little of what you're talking about.

The common belief among a few diehard revolver fanatics is that because the revolver does not have to feed or eject cartridges in the same manner that automatic pistols do, or because the revolver is somehow "simpler" than the automatic, it is better than the auto. Their idea of "better" is, of course, esoteric.

Revolvers remain mechanical objects, and are subject to problems arising from manufacturing defects, parts failures, ammunition failures, improper maintenance, and user abuse -- just like pistols. While the casual observer might believe that because the revolver does not appear to have as many moving parts as the automatic, inferring from this that the revolver is therefore more reliable, the revolver is in fact a fairly intricate design, the proper function of which is based on a number of small, moving parts...

I would urge anyone who still believes, in the 21st century, that revolvers are superior to automatics as defensive or fighting handguns to strongly consider the facts about revolvers and the state of automatic pistols today. Also, you’re insane.

While I prefer revolvers I agree that auto loaders have become far more dependable.
Six rounds should be enough for almost any situation.

You're worried about problems arising from problems inherent to automatics so you should get a decent revolver. It doesn't have a feed ramp or a magazine.

Also of course you are supposed to look over a malfunctioning gun with a glass. You need to find the small defect that is causing the problem. If the defect was large and easily visible the failure would be far worse than a hang up. Just another indication that you really have no business handling firearms.

I carry an auto, not because it has more rounds but because a .40 or .45 ACP is "better"
than a .38 special or a .38 S&W
I also always carry a spare.

That is not a "stovepipe". That is a failure to eject.

Well duh, that's what a stovepipe is, but if the case doesn't make it up to and get caught up sideways between the rear of the port and the breach then it wouldn't be a stovepipe. If you really want to continue with semantical bullshit then you might even say a stovepipe causes a failure to feed.

At about .40 cents a round...sure you did.

The Glock is an ultra reliable handgun. A friend had a Sig Sauer .380, another quality handgun that started hanging up. We finally figured it out after several trips to the target range. The problem was lint in the crevice around the extractor pin spring.

From a practical standpoint, when I get a new or used handgun that I may want to depend on, I'll put at least 4 or 5 hundred rounds through it,

At .40 cents a round[8|]

Whatever, Mr. Argue Over Trivial Shit. In the early 90's when I bought the freakin Glock, even premium ammo was closer to .25 in boxes of 20 or 50. Back then I was buying surplus and some premium ammo, in a variety of calibers, by the case (1,000 rounds) and it was even way less than that. Of course this was over 20 years ago so I can't remember the exact price. I don't shoot as much as I used to these days but I'm well stocked up on ammo. I guess that makes me paranoid and Ramboesque.

with the magazines and ammo I intend to use if it's an automatic, to make certain its accurate and reliable. If I buy extra magazines for an automatic, I'll try them out before I rely on them. I never buy junk.

You bought a glock that failed to eject properly and you bought it from a company that said you had a "limpwrist" and tried to stonewall you on your warranty

Yes, is there a point or a question on that ?


In no way shape or form, no matter how reliable it's been proven to be, would I ever want some electronic smart junk crap on my handgun, rifle or shotgun.

So no red dot lazer sights for you ehh?

No, but even if I had those I would want to retain the use of my iron sights as back up. On 2 of my defensive hand guns I do have glow in the dark 3 dot sights.

So you were obsessing that an automatic could break down, whined about one actually breaking down and described your friend and your own inability to properly clean an automatic for no reason?

Now get your head around something, while I support the right of the manufacturer to make the gun in question I've not advocated for any laws mandating such technology or anything og the like. Your paranoia is showing yet again.

According to reliable statistical data reported in 2009 covering the years 1904-2006, from the National Center for Health Statistics (1981 on) and the National Safety Council (prior to 1981), while the number of privately owned guns in the U.S. is at an all-time high, and rises by about 4.5 million per year, the firearm accident death rate is at an all-time annual low, 0.2 per 100,000 population, down 94 percent since the all-time high in 1904.

Since 1930, the annual number of such deaths has decreased 80 percent, to an all-time low, while the U.S. population has more than doubled and the number of firearms has quintupled. Among children, such deaths have decreased 90 percent since 1975.

Today, the odds are more than a million to one against a child in the U.S. dying in a firearm accident. According to the 2009 data, in reality among all child accidental deaths nationally, firearms were involved in 1.1 percent, compared to motor vehicles (41 percent), suffocation (21 percent), drowning (15 percent), fires (8 percent), pedal cycles (2 percent), poisoning (2 percent), falls (1.9 percent), environmental factors (1.5 percent), and medical mistakes (1 percent)
