Armed and dangerous, be on the look out.

[Atrain1]

I call shenanigans.

Unless it was a POS gun like a Jennings/Bryco or a late WWII Nambu Type 94 pretty much any pistol designed/built in the last century has a multitude of safeties including a drop safety making it virtually impossible for a handgun dropped on the floor to discharge (and even then the Jennings/Bryco isn't likely to discharge when dropped).

99.99999% of the time when you hear some story about how someone dropped a gun (or their cat knocked it off something) and it discharged you are listening to a LIE.

Handguns that discharge when they are dropped get recalled. If not the gun manufacturer gets sued out of existence.

This guy was playing with the gun and shot himself and then put together this cock and bull story about his cat knocking the gun over.

I am going to have to agree to the bryco/jennings not going off if dropped cause anyone who owns one knows better than to keep one in the pipe LOL. I own a P3AT and a P32 and I call BS as well. I hate to admit it but I have dropped my P3AT (never with a round chambered) I dont keep one in the chamber even when I carry it, and none of my guns are ever chambered in my house. If I dont have the time to rack a slide I am screwed anyway, so even if the story is true it is his fault for having a loaded gun on his safe were it could fall.
