    Is it wrong to keep a loaded gun around when a person isn’t home if it has a trigger lock on it?

    Example:

    That’s fine as long as it is out of the direct sunlight. Prolonged sunlight exposure is bad for ammo and can cause hang-fires……

    Kind of off topic. Are you really bookmarking pages when you fold every corner? What, are the corners not folded the ones you are bookmarking?

    Did you ask for the kids name that loaned that crappie to you for the photo?

    That would have been a perfect opportunity to ask about bookmarks.

    You would too if it was your PB crappie….even if it was caught by someone else. Possession is 9/10 of the law everywhere.

    By the way, I should be heading out with the nephew to troll a metro lake loaded with pickling pike. I am sure he’s going to catch a few to add to my count.

    Hrmf. I was afraid of that. It mitigates a dig when the dig has no reference.

    I’m beginning to suspect there’s times even he has no idea what he’s talking about … This certainly appears to be one of those times.

    The folded ones indicate cities that have restraining orders against him…

    i.e. not allowed to carry the pictured “weapon”

    I used to have one of those. I had a bad experience with ammo deterioration which led to an accidental discharge of the weapon. Be careful BK!

    Looks like that thing will shoot any caliber of ammo by the look of the spare ammo in the background.
