Ill try to address the questions... Seems as though this is a polarizing issue. The people are parents of good friends of mine. Their kids are not Democrats.

I'm not worried about the M&P because the instructor/cop said that he loans an M&P9 and that he loaned a bunch of guns that day. I am surprised, however, that no one took inventory. If I were him I would implement some corrective action. He is stationed about 40 minutes from the range, and he is fairly ("100%") confident that he will find mine. Perhaps he took a tally of gun cases that were heavy enough to have guns and called it good. Again... I'd check the inventory and condition at the end of the class. The friends offered to call, but I said I would because I had both serial numbers and more knowledge about models, etc. It was easier for me to communicate than them. My case had my spare mag, the M&P, and an M&P mag. I kind of like the M&P trigger, but I have 3 Glocks and a lot of magazines and I don't really want to switch. I shoot better with the G26 than either G19 for whatever reason. At we least we know they aren't racist, but that statement sure makes it sound like you are.
He's relaying their point of view, not his own. How the fuck do you come up with the OP being racist? |

I have friends who can walk up to me and simply say "I need a gun." and I'll simply hand them the one I've got in my holster no questions asked. Those are the kinds of friends who are worth more than anything. I might have five friends like that. Three of them would go with me if I told them I needed to go to a gun fight. The other two would offer to take care of the problem while I was being very publicly visible elsewhere.
Everyone else... "I need a gun." Me... "I saw a good deal on them at Rural King, wanna go shopping?" |

Why did the guy who borrowed the guns let them out of his control? Like I said earlier, double fail: both the borrower of OP's G26 and the borrower (I assume) of the M&P lost control of (not) their weapons. |

I fully expect anything i loan out will not come back in the same condition. I learned this with camping equipment. I have since bought duplicates of things my wife's broke parents and siblings would not buy themselves just so I could have something crappy they can borrow and then return ripped or broken 10 months later.

I loaned my dad an M&P for a CC class
He said it jammed up really bad. Having never, ever had a jam in this gun, I asked him what happened? The instructor instructed the class to load up empty shell casings in the magazine among live rounds to practice malfunction drills 
Well it fucking worked The empty casing cycled in and wedged itself up under the feed ramp and they couldn't get it out so they pried it out with a screwdriver and scratched up my slide. I never thought an instructor would suggest something like that, and was surprised my dad would go along with it. |

I'm bothered the instructor didn't notice this right away. Students often can't even keep track of their own stuff let alone something they borrowed.
At the end of class one day I notice a 9mm Kahr magazine left sitting on a table.I try to give it to the only guy that was shooting a Kahr that day since it had to be his. He refuses it and claims it can't be his, he has all of his in his gun bag. I persist but he just will not take it. He won't even check his bag to make sure. Ok, fine, I'll keep it then. Still have it. Sooner or later another student will show up with a Kahr and maybe he'll accept the gift.

I have been working with 4 good friends who have been fence sitters regarding guns in general. (3 Women,1 man) I have had all four out for range sessions regarding basic pistol skills and safety. Two just got their CHLs last week using loaner guns of mine to qualify. The other two will take the class next month one with my loaner guns. The other already bought herself a G43. The other 3 are going to also buy themselves G43s once Academy gets them back in stock. |

He got laid. But drunk crazy liberal girl ended up flipping out on him a few weeks later, threatened to claim he hit her during an alchohol fueled rage, and her brother was a local cop, blah blah blah, so he came back to Seattle. Luckily, he paid me back, and planned on digging the gun back up the next summer. BUUUUT he ended up becoming a felon between then and summer. So if anybody is in Leavenworth, and digs up an AR-7, let me know. I have the other magazine to give you.  How deep is it? A metal detectorist might have already got it. |

If you were in Washington or Oregon you would have needed (to be legal) a 4473/background check for each gun you loaned him, another set to get them back, topped off with another set tonight to get the right guns back where they belong. Actually, you probably could have been charged with a crime when it was discovered that the guns had got mixed up. I hope I'm wrong, but I'm afraid that is the way of the future. |

Back in the sixties a friend of mine lived in a house with a bunch of guys. One of them asked to borrow his Winchester 1897 12 ga. " to do some bird hunting". Took it and killed the guy who was banging his girlfriend. Got caught and went to prison. My friend never saw his 97 again.
There are some lessons in there somewhere. |

I must be in the minority. I loan guns out frequently to friends and family.
If I know them well enough to judge them reliable and responsible enough to handle one, why not? |
