Thread: Uncovered guns

So you sell a silky lopper (nastiest bit of kit for hurting people with) to your customer and request he hides it so no one sees it? Same damn thing.

Actually a motor car is more dangerous, but we are trying to have a sensible discussion, and yes it doe,s leave in a carrier bag

I think the public are more likely to call the cops if they see an uncovered gun than than a pruning saw. So no, not really the same.

A silky lopper will take your arm ( or head) off with ease. Made no reference to a saw of any kind. Quite happy to wander into a gunshop anywhere with a rifle in my hands, open action or bolt out-would not wander around anywhere but the bush with an unsheathed lopper in my hand.
