lanyard for a pistol

>>34534823
It's a fucking cord. Jesus, people have to come to an anonymous message board for validation over the most pathetic shit. Use it if you feel like using it.

>>34534927
im not looking for validation. im asking if anyone uses one. i want to know the pro and con of using one. i could see it snagging on things alot and being a bitch but i also think it will keep someone from grabbing my gun and running off.

>>34534993
Nigga, it's a cord. You've managed to sum up all the pros and cons yourself.

yeah. i had a gun stolen a few months ago an i dont want to do that again. i was taking a shit in a public bathroom at a gas station and someone reached under the door and grabbed my gun from the holser that was on my belt an they ran off.

>>34534993
>but i also think it will keep someone from grabbing my gun and running off.

Good fuck god, you are the worst trip.

They can still fucking shoot you with your own gun even with a cord, unless you plan to make it extra short. Which is retarded.
If this is your worry because you OC, then CC, and if you cant work out how to conceal well, then thats all on you.

And have you never heard of active retention holsters? Or are you worried you'll get into that fumble tumble for your gun when you have it drawn? Which doesnt matter because you fucked up horribly if you lose the gun to another guy if you already had it drawn, and a lanyard isn't going to correct that fuckup.

You should give up on gun ownership.

>>34534823
Hi there!

You seem to have made a bit of a mistake in your post. Luckily, the users of 4chan are always willing to help you clear this problem right up! You appear to have used a tripcode when posting, but your identity has nothing at all to do with the conversation! Whoops! You should always remember to stop using your tripcode when the thread it was used for is gone, unless another one is started! Posting with a tripcode when it isn't necessary is poor form. You should always try to post anonymously, unless your identity is absolutely vital to the post that you're making!

Now, there's no need to thank me - I'm just doing my bait to help you get used to the anonymous image-board culture!

Now go kill yourself you stupid cunt.

>>34535108
This troll attempt has no positive win for him. A person cant feed off being retarded on purpose because in the end of the day, the reaction he gets are those aimed at a retard. It doesnt change the ultimate outcome that all the negativity aimed at him is somehow not legitimate anymore because he claims he is jokingly being retarded but he isn't salvaging anything from doing that. so whatever bait he lays out might as well just be him being 100%.

>>34535129
This is why you should always have two guns.

You could have chased him down with your pants around your ankles, and shot him in the back.

>>34535166

If you want the short answer: nothing.
The long answer is going over a long list of secondary applications of newly developed technologies. There are things like >>34536366
which are emerging technologies specifically designed to help people. The machine pictured was next-generation medical imaging.
Most of the other things are secondary applications for technologies developed to perform experiments. Everything from high-sensitivity low-noise photodetectors to high-throughput computing. Immediate applications for such technologies are usually just for the experiment, but later on people find alternative uses for them in other fields.

No, it just means they got your gun, your holster, wallet, keys, and pants because you're going to lose it the same way you lost your last one. Best case scenario, you get dragged feet-first out of the stall by your pants and kicked unconscious under the sink. Good luck explaining that to the paramedics.

Have you not heard this idiot's story before? his gun was stolen while taking a shit in a public bathroom by a nigger, or some shit like that.

>>34539319
The tl;dr is here >>34534993
And here>>34535129

He posted a few threads about it, much merriment was had at his expense 'cause he's a tard. Now he asks about securing his shit with a lanyard to keep it from happening again. What's going to happen is, same scenario only now there's a lanyard in the mix. Assuming El Autismo fastens the other end of the lanyard to his pants, the perp reels in the gun and then yanks Callum's pants inside out over his shoes, which hang up in the cuffs. This leads to a pantsless Callum being dragged under the stall door until the unknown assailant can stomp his nuts to make him quit struggling. Callum then gets kicked unconscious so he can be picked clean of anything even remotely valuable.

The next customer to use the restroom finds a half naked and bloody Callum with visibly bruised and swollen nuts unconscious on the floor.

That's going to be an epic thread.
