We're the Only Ones...Yes, I Always Take a Magazine With Me When I Fly...

A U.S. air marshal removed himself from a Southwest Airlines flight set to depart Midway Airport on Thursday after he accidentally dropped a clip of bullets on the floor of the plane, revealing his undercover role to fellow passengers, airline officials said.
Well at least his gun didn't go off all by its own self, thank goodness...

Lessee,now, since he dropped a clip, that means he was carrying some semi or fully automatic rifle, since I've never even heard of a pistol or handgun that uses clips and not magazines. Then it was bullets, not cartridges, which my ten year old who has reloaded them would tell you are useless without the rest of the cartridge, unless of course, it was a muzzel loader. And then this golden warrior guardian of the public trust and bane of jihadists drops it on the floor and says oops, I better leave you all helpless, because if one of you is a bad guy, you know I'm supposed to oppose you, but now that you know my identity, I'll run away. I'll bet it is HS policy too. This used to be a hell of a country.

Broomhandle Mauser is loaded with a stripper clip. But I bet he wasn't carrying one of 'em.
