You mean a Police Positive...a 1902 Colt Police Positive with a stuck ejector. I have the misfortune of working in a gun store part time, and I have to say that the police officers are by far the most negligent and have the worst attitude toward firearms regulation. Not all of them, but several from one certain department. Actually, just about all of them that come in know nothing. The one exception is a kid that came out of the Marine Corps. I don't understand this. Even if you condider your gun to be only a tool, wouldn't it be wise to know how your equipment works? I certaintly knew how my equipment worked when I was a mechanic.
Anyway, one moron from the Downs Syndrome dept was in with his buddy in plain clothes. Being a jackass, he had to announce what he did for a living and where he did it. His buddy was kneeling down looking at some scopes in the display when the jackass asked to see a Sig 229. As soon as the gun was in his hands he turned to his buddy, who's back was facing him, bent down, jammed the gun into his friend's/partner's ribs and announce "Give me your wallet!" And yes there were other customers in the store. How's that for PR? Another wonder boy from that dept informed my boss that he didn't need to fill out paper work for his handgun because he is a cop. Yet another has decided to carry his S&W Chief's Special .45ACP cocked. He actually pulled it out and laid it on the counter loaded, round in chamber, hammer at full cock.
It has nothing to do with the fact that they are cops. It has to do with the fact that they are complete fucking morons that HAVE to carry guns.
Retarded civilians have a choice, in most places, whether or not they carry a gun, but reatarded cops everywhere have to carry guns.
