Heh. Same.

When you heat a polymer sufficiently (and many other substances), the surface will undergo pyrolysis, releasing easily combustible components in gaseous form. The flames are burning gases. It's pretty much how plastics burn in an open flame, but it looks a little different.
There you go using them big words again, and getting all sciency.
I'm not saying the weight is the problem, per se. Maybe you're shaped differently. I'm saying that dealing with the hangover makes it a deal breaker for me. It's not important enough to change how I wear my pants.
I'd like to see the microwave test done on a steel frame gun.
I realize I'm days late to this, but has anyone already pointed out that something can be both accidental and negligent?
Ah, that's a pants fit issue more than a how you carry issue. Pants that fit properly will make virtually every type of carry more comfortable and secure.

Neglidental Discharge?
Accident- unintentional, sudden, surprise
Negligence- unintentional due to failure to take reasonable care
See how most (if not all) negligence is accidental, but you can have accidents without negligence?
Accident is the opposite of intentional, not negligent.
Negligent is the opposite of non-negligent or careful
So if some clothing gets caught up while holstering, and the trigger is actuated, it's certainly unintentional. If the standard of care was *appropriate* care, that would seem axiomatic. So in this scenario, is it reasonable care in all circumstances? For training and practice, I think I'd say so. But I suppose there may be some possible conditions which make it not unreasonable, not to have used appropriate care. Maybe under duress, for example.
I don't disagree, but keep in mind that the full definition of negligence is: "the failure to exercise the level of care a reasonably prudent person would in the same of similar circumstances."
"the same or similar circumstances" covers a lot of ground. Being under duress, for instance, is a circumstance that has to be taken into account when deciding whether a person acted reasonably.
I person who, for instance, is being shot at by an attacker may "get away with" being a little less careful than someone shooting casually on the range- the circumstances are completely different and what is reasonable when you are under fire my not be reasonable when you have all the time in the world to think through steps.
...and that doesn't always mean human failure has to be negligent.
Will you serve on every one of my juries from now on?
Uh. What's it pay?
