Another important gun handling rule is, "You cannot clean a loaded gun". The good sheriff must have forgotten how to do that properly as well. Yeah, so here is a law enforcement officer who may be called upon to protect you and he is "iffy" with his gun.....
Oh gee, even I know better than that. And a sheriff no less. But as a sheriff you would think one of the qualifications would be learning how to operate a gun whether you are anti gun or not. lol
