State republicans who won’t shut up about “small government” sure love interfering with blue cities…
Just like national level Republicans love interfering with blue states when they can…
Probably because all the way back to the civil war, conservatives never wanted states rights, they wanted the federal government to force states they disagreed with to do what conservative states told them.
Indiana Republicans don’t care about helping Gary because that’s where “those people” live.
I think the only thing that can help Gary is divine intervention
OP’S link wasn’t working for me
After reading the article, this sounds like the absolute worst kind of corruption going on. And I am not even slightly surprised. I really wish someone would would hack into Jeters finances and and see how much he is making off of his horrendous and ridiculous stance.
Well crap, that was the link to the “tell web archive to save another copy of this page” part of the archiving process, that traffic probably made their servers upset
Correct link is https://web.archive.org/web/20240131005505/https://www.propublica.org/article/indiana-guns-gary-lawsuit-gunmakers-hb1235
Yep. Sounds like my state. Sigh.
Does anyone know the make/model of that snub nosed revolver?
I want to understand how the striker/hammer works.
Looks like Smith and Wesson’s model 638 to me
It’s a common design for conceal carry. The hammer is still there just doesn’t have the thumb lever. It’s a double action. Pulling the trigger pulls the hammer back until the release point and the hammer then falls sticking the primer. The trigger will be pulled all the way for each shot with this shaved style hammer. If the hammer still had the thumb lever, the hammer could be pulled back into a “cocked” position at which time pulling the trigger would release the hammer to strike the primer.
A traditional hammer can become caught on clothing or other loose fabric when being concealed and moving around or drawn from concealment.
Can’t if the make or model but it seems like a typical “hammerless” double action only revolver. It probably has a hammer but it’s hidden in that hump to prevent the hammer from getting caught on clothing when being drawn.
