    Cops who don't carry off duty

    Cops that only shoot when they're required to qualify.

    People that think cops are better-trained than any citizen could ever be.

    Cops that only shoot when they're required to qualify that think they're going to perform well under pressure because of that 8 hours of training (about 2 of it shooting) ten years ago at the academy, but I'd fold up and die if confronted by an armed assailant. Ok, I haven't seen this one in Texas, but there is a SHITLOAD of these idiots in California.

    Oh wait, I got one.

    When a co-worker absolutely INSIST that "F" & "S" key lock on the side of a Bersa 380 (i own) stands for fully automatic and semi-automatic. After I about fell out of my chair laughing he continued to imform me if mine wasn't that way then i don't know how to work the trigger. After that comment, it wasn't even worth arguing.

    Tell him to keep it on "s" or "semi" because you need special licenses to put it on "f" or full auto! Lol! People that stupid dont need to be shootin anyway!

    And then tell him not to be suprised if it dont shoot because bersas are known for locking up!

    Every trip to the range since I bought mine it has jammed at least once. I do hear they need a good break in period though. Only have about 300rds through it.

    Yeah, +1 on the Bersa problem. Mine would constantly FTE, until I figured out that if I load the mag -1 it would feed and fire with no problems. Oh well, I got rid of the thing anyways. Was always accurate tho with the fixed barrel.

    I saw it three days ago. Guy was spouting the old "it's more dangerous if you shoot back" and "regular people don't have the training we do" garbage. I actually saw him recommend pepper spray to someone as a response to unlawful deadly force.

    Someone that thinks that because I happen to have a gun that I don't shoot that they somehow have the right to buy it. Screw you - go buy your own. What's mine is mine - and it's none of your damned business what I do with it.

    I'm reasonably sure you know the make, model and caliber of your guns so my post would not apply to you, but if you don't, you piss me off. lol

    Agreed. One of my favorite tv show just started is 4th season and they pulled that crap with the fn 5.7, I was uber pissed the only reason I'm still watching it is because it hasn't come up since.

    Ouch. Luckily they seem to be very few and far between here.

    Add to the list of stuff that pisses me off: That people are so dumb that they think that shooting back is somehow more dangerous than letting someone rush you with a knife, beat you with a bat or shoot at you with a gun! I'm not a fan of eugenics, but I think I could make an exception in this kind of case.

    Yeah and add to that list people that think firearms that have recoil-reducing capabilities are designed as killing implements for mass murderers...
