deershooter Posted March 10, 2016 Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 Just seen on Crimewatch about the murder of John Palmer, the police man said he was shot with a .32 smooth bore revolver that was self loading ,then they showed a pic of somethimg like a Walther PPK what hope do they have of getting a conviction if they can not get these facts right on the type of weapon .

littlerob Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 (edited) Most likely as they don't have a clue what type of gun them self's. Plus the police experts are not very brite I have had my guns taken into police care had a sxs put down on my receipt as a under and over. Had a slab of cartridges just dissappear thin air Edited March 11, 2016 by littlerob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mighty Prawn Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 It's a reflection of the fact they don't know much about guns - how many times have we read reports that might as well say 'so and so was shot with a gunny gun gun' I think sprinkling a few terms gives them a sense they are convincing the public they know what they're doing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

12gauge82 Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 Some of these comments are like when antis tar the whole shooting community with the same brush when a game keeper is caught killing protected birds and the like, there's some very good coppers out there and you never know, you might need one some day, I don't get all the police bashing I really don't.
