    Article mentions that guns are confusing if you aren't familiar with them.... I'd add that the laws concerning guns don't help the situation and the media rarely helps get it right.

    Contrary to the general perception by the public and media: all LE officers are not extremely knowledgeable about firearms, doesn't make a difference if they're the Boss or Line Saff. Most can work their way through clearing an unfamiliar firearm. I'm sure there's a few odd arms I'd fumble with too. In my early years I pulled a S&W revolver from my Uncles dresser: no typical loading gate, cyclinder release nor was it BP. Pivot finally gave it away as a break top S&W hammerless "lemon squeezer". We don't know what we didn't know, until we know it. Lol
