It should be illegal to carry a gun without a holster. But then it should also be illegal to be that stupid. I hope he goes to jail and becomes a prohibited possessor. What an incredible idiot.

Think you meant something more like this where an off duty cop takes out a thug at a convenience store.

Lance Thomas is an interesting study as well, I think he got tired of being threatened and having to do something about it.

"He says the accident was his fault, but is no indicator of his skill with handguns."

That doesn't even qualify him to be a mall cop! WTF!

"I think I either bumped the trigger or pushed it the wrong way or something and it went off," Deneault said.

Making Kansas proud! What a dumbass. I agree with Rick, he should have his CCH revoked and never be allowed to carry a firearm again. Guns don't just "go off", and anyone who carries without a holster deserves to be shot. Thank God he didn't shoot anyone else.

Is training actually required for a CHL there?.

When i got my CHL in Oregon, no handgun training was required, just a couple hours' lecture on the law.

In my state it is and 8 hour day with lecture, written examination and shooting examination at a range to show proficiency. The examiners take it seriously.

Everyone seems to be hot on single action striker fired pistols with no safety these days. Minimal trigger travel, no holster, in a pocket with no safety . That sounds like a genius. He was lucky not to clip his femoral artery or his nads. Darwin award nominee?

Guns were not even allowed there.

Fumbling around in the dark with your gun is never safe, is it?

Stupid should hurt, but it should only hurt the stupid person in question.

In FL you have to have a holster to legally carry, and it can't be one of those loose ones that a gun will just fall out of. I have spent a fair amount of $$$ to legal, proper equipment.

That story was comically bad - as if it were written by a 16 year old who was begged by the subject to tell everyone how mad his skills are. Almost as bad as the subject was stupid.

8 hours a few years ago, it might have changed since.

Unholstered and in a pocket? No.
