My first thought was that they hire these guys to carry weapons on planes, and it turns out that they aren't as bright as your average law-abiding licensed gun owner.

How many of you have ever dropped a clip of bullets when you were carrying concealed?

I've heard of cops dropping a gun on a dance floor or something like that. But dropping one or dropping the ammo while one is supposed to be incognito could be fatal! The guy sounds like a dumbass.

I doubt any of us who carry concealed do so with a weapon which takes a "clip."

A clip, have not heard it called "clip" in years..dropped magazines on the range..never had the ammo fall out...dropped handguns on occasions, no discharge, but the sights had to be aligned..

I find this story hard to believe unless he was carrying a wheel-gun and using "half moon clips" to carry extra ammo. But I thought the Air cops carried semi autos

I wonder if he was carrying the magazines vertically or horizontally?

Guilty as charged! Last winter a few of us were throwing snowballs on a porch while taking a break from moving furniture when I noticed my spare mag of 380s sitting in the middle of the porch. But, thanks to cognitive dissonance, I don't think anyone else noticed.

Dropped a magazine, no. I'll fess up, tho, to dropping a pistol. Went to dinner with family, and had to visit the men's room. Had my KelTec P32 with belt clip tucked into my waste-band, and forgot it was there till too late. Fortunately, I was the only one there.

Course, I immediately stepped outside and fired a couple rounds into the air to make sure the P32 still worked ok! Not!
