No, man, you can't put anything on the internet that isn't true. A French model told me so, and with the Ethiopian money I'm getting, I'm set for life..
I have heard the same basic story from 3 different people in the last week or so. They all basically state that it is now illegal to carry (even with a permit) a "cocked and locked firearm without the safety on, or if the gun has no safety, it has to have an unloaded chamber". In all cases they site the "Marysville cop daughter ND shooting" as the impetus of the newly enacted law.
I've read the RCWs (I'm not a lawyer and don't play one on TV) and can't find anything anywhere that dictates "condition of carry" (only the typical stuff about who can and can't carry, permit regulations, etc.).
Has anybody else heard this rumor? Where and how the heck does this stuff get started? Can we start a better rumor? "One time, at band camp, I saw Bigfoot and the Loch Ness Monster both carrying chrome-plated sissy pistols with the hammer back..."
I told all parties that this seems to be a rumor and there doesn't seem to be any factual support for this story anywhere. I'd like to keep setting these folks straight and want to make sure I'm not contributing to any inaccurate information.
Any input would be appreciated.
Back in the way back days (I got out of my "Way Back Machine earlier tonight) the cap and ball revolvers kept the one under the hammer empty, it is said, because they would go off if hit on the hammer. Don't know how much truth there is in that....
Most Cap and Ball revolvers have a hammer notch between the nipples to allow the hammer to sit in a location that is safe. The hammer has to be pulled back for the cylinder to rotate or for the hammer come near a cap.

It's true I tell you, true. Isn't it wonderful about that new fully automatic semi-auto Glock AR 15 in 12 gauge?

There IS a full auto Glock, tho! Model 18...
Chapter 9.41 RCW: FIREARMS AND DANGEROUS WEAPONS
It doesn't hurt to read them occasionally, and when you've a few extra minutes, follow the links into the surrounding RCW to learn of exceptions and related laws.
It doesn't make any damned sense to have this many laws on the books, and I propose making one more law... Making it a requirement to take 10 lines OUT of the laws for every line that goes IN. When it gets down to a reasonable level, we won't have so many folks confused about what Is and what Isn't legal.
It's not the fault of the average citizen that confusion reigns supreme.
Iron out that whole 12 gauge thing and I'll buy one.
Figuratively, I would do some pretty crazy things to get my hands on an 18. What do those run now, $75,000? What are there, 25 in the country in private hands? A G18 with 33 round mags would be great to defend my walls from advancing Mongol hordes.
Too bad that a simple little weapon like that, guaranteed by the 2nd, even has to be discussed
Brother, you are preaching to the proverbial choir over here. I'm with you all the way.
Yes, but I didn't say that. I said fully automatic semi-auto Glock AR 15 in 12 gauge which is a bunch of conflicting statements. Although I SHOULD have said fully automatic single shot Glock AR15 in 40mm.There IS a full auto Glock, tho! Model 18...
