[QUOTE="Fyrtwuck, post: 1947641, member: 23"] All this reminds me of a very short employment at a Security Guard Company about 30 years ago. I was going through orientation and they were going over the firearms policy. We were carrying revolvers back then. The policy was to carry only 5 rounds in the cylinder. The cylinder had to be oriented so that when the trigger was pulled the first strike was on an empty chamber. I asked "why?" They said that in the event someone took our gun away from us and tried to shoot us with it, it would hit an empty chamber and give us time to fight back and regain our pistols while they were trying to figure out why it didn't shoot. I told them that I wouldn't carry a pistol like that and got up and walked out. [/QUOTE]
