Check out the proposed legislation upcoming in the GA and make your opinion known to your lawmakers.

Oh believe me I make my opinion known and I also make sure they know they violate their oaths by not fixing it.

Sounds like accidental discharges are limited to firearms with free float firing pins, or accidents that do happen.

All firearms may accidently discharge.

Do you own a Ruger single action revolver? Does it have a billboard sized warning on it? Why do you think it has a billboard sized warning on it?

There's that OC without a permit/LTCH/CCW thingy, for one.

Yes, but you have to pay for a class to CC

But, if you so desire you can carry a weapon OC without having to pay for a RIGHT... I mean in Indiana, I guess one could CC or OC a long gun without having to pay for a LTCH...

Well, an ignorant legislator in Kentucky negligently discharged her weapon in her capitol office in Frankfort, Kentucky. I just love how the moron and the media are calling it a accidental discharge, of course we all know there is no accidental discharges, only negligent discharges. Of course since she is a legislator nothing will happen. Why oh why do we have such idiot gun owners...

Oh and for the record, I work for the Commonwealth of Kentucky and carry every day at work and have never had a negligent discharge, hell I dont even get out my weapon and coon finger the thing. That's not to say we dont have show-in-tell on a regular basis due to the number of people in my office that carry.

I really hate the media! 'gun accidentally discharges'. That's total BS that puts holds the gun responsible. How about 'Ky representative accidentally discharges her gun in Capitol building'. The person failed, not the gun. The media wastes no opportunity to portray guns as something that is dangerous. People are dangerous in their actions. The poor gun was just doing what it was designed to do and went off when the trigger was pulled.

"I was purposefully disarming it to put it up because I didn't like it and didn't want to use it anymore,"

And there is the part where she is an idiot.
I am having a real hard time making sense of that quote when you read other parts of the article that say she has carried for a long time.

Not necessarily. It reads to me she didn't like that particular firearm, not firearms in general. Later on she says something about it being a semi-auto and she likes revolvers.

Keep your bugger hook off the bang switch and be in control of your firearm at all times. How stinking difficult is that to understand?!?

“On Tuesday, I accidentally discharged a firearm in my legislative office in the Capitol Annex."

At least she kind of takes [FONT=Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, lucida grande, tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif]responsibility for it.[/FONT]

("It's an automatic," Combs said. "I need to stick with revolvers.") This tells me it was HER mistake!

And still need a "permit/LTCH/CCW thingy" for CC.

 

[ChalupaCabras]

Does she have a history of pro or anti gun legislation?


Lots of the antis have CCW permits. Wouldnt surprise me if they did this kind of thing so they can say "SEE! We told you guns were dangerous! If someone as professional and copmetant as a state legislator cant hand it, then neither can YOU!"

OOOooooOOOhhh.
Wow that shines a whole new light on it.
My own prejudices against legislators clouded my judgment
I take it back.
