    The guy would probably faint dead away if he looked in my gun safe...

    He put the arse in arsenal.
    Concealed carry is for protection, open carry is for attention.

    :roll: Yea right. I doubt you will see any of us carrying around a .25 auto. Let's get real here.

    I said kinda stuff, not necessarily a .25 auto. I mean a small pocket pistol of some kind, the same kind of volume of things. However, not my choice, but a .25 ACP is better than no gun at all.

    BTW, Although not my first choice, but I'd love to own/ carry a baby browning .25 Auto. I'd post pics on here and not be ashamed either. I'd even reload for it.

    Might not carry it , but if I ever find a Baby Browning in exc condition for a good price , I'll grab it. I do have a Colt 1908 Vest Pocket Model .25. If I want ultra small , I'll carry my Seecamp .32.

    Here's a .25 I'm working on, a WW II bringback from Europe by my BIL's father. It's a bit smaller than the Colt, IMHO.

    Yes, they are better than nothing, and I have to admit that I wouldn't mind a Baby Browning myself. I just seriously doubt I would ever carry it.

    That is a pretty good cache of weapons for a 15 year old to have at school.
    Just look at the flowers Lizzie, just look at the flowers.

    I have one, we are talking a 15 year old kid at school correct. You talk like it's harmless.

    Ahhh Buford, Im just being funny. I know how serious thes situation could have been with rescent school shootings and whatnot. Just trying to poke some fun at the .25ACP and its lack thereof. Forgive my ignorance.

    To the reporter it was an arsenal.....like that idiot knows enough to come in out of the rain.

    Reporters especially on TV "Just have to look good, Don't have to be clear".
    A reporter on CNN this morning said the LA cops were shooting bean bags from rifles at the Occupy LA guys.

    While it's never a laughing matter when a teenager brings weapons to school covertly, the headline is overblown. It reads kind of like this one about a "gun range accident" (read the headline and then read the story and see if they should've worded things in a less sensational manner). In short, how many of you have ever been bit by the slide on an auto pistol. Did you find the event newsworthy? Would they report on a QB slicing his thumb with a box cutter the way they reported on this?:
