Probably why his attorneys were miffed.
I believe his wife still has pending charges as well.

Personally, I don't see as to how either Zimmerman or Kel Tec would see that this sort of publicity would be in their best interests.

Agreed, it's pretty tasteless after a fashion.

I can see very clearly why Kel-Tek did it.

I can understand Kel Tec thinking it good publicity given their "target" market.

I shot one once, can't remember if it was a 9MM or a 32ACP, but you're correct.

If I were of a notion to carry concealed, I'd just take my S&W Chiefs Special...at least I know it will function.

Or better yet, I'd carry my GP-100 in a sack. It's effective at a little further than 7 yds. My Python is too, it's just too expensive to use.

Seems to me that open carry would make more sense. If you openly carried one of those, it would likely reduce the chances of having to use it.

It does make more sense.

Then, if I thought I needed to carry a weapon, I'd carry my riot gun.

Keep that Python in the safe.....My father favorite pistol. Glad he taught me about them. For shooting I reach for the S&W Combat 66....
