Cuffed Texan woman holsters loaded gun IN VAGINA A Texan woman cuffed for possession of methamphetamine was packing a "fully loaded" handgun inside her vagina, according to Waco cops.

It's been a long while since we had an American with gun story. I thought the world was turning upside down.
>29.5g of the same in Castaneda's purse.
Given the theme of the article, is "purse" a euphimism and they didn't notice the gun when they found the drugs. If so that must be some purse.

Not American. From Texas. Texas is is a special place where they hunt deer from helicopters... or hunt hogs with machine guns from helicopters. It is by no means representative of American's view on... anything.
When we read a news story like this, we ask, "Did this happen in Texas? oh, that explains it."
True, but the firing pin would then be resting against the cartridge. Which makes her even more brainless.
I'd say that due to the close proximity of the materials of that, er, "holster" there is also a fair chance that the hammer would catch on something, both in case of an accidental discharge or when "unholstering" the weapon.
Be as it may, I am disinclined to investigate deeper, as it were. As someone who has always been told to keep such gear meticulously clean I shudder to think what a mess you'd face here...
it really depends on the gun. Some have the firing pin resting on the primer others have it held back a bit. Also, some semi-autos have a interlock that prevents the pin from moving unless the trigger is pulled while other models have an enclosed hammer.
There are also models that you can lower the hammer after chambering a round so the gun is not cocked.
most of these do not have an external hammer. rack the slide to chamber a round and you lock the striker back on the sear. Pull to go Bang.
tho unless the weapon has a damaged sear, or she's really diligent with her keigels, there's no way she'd pull the trigger while "holstered".
As could an African swallow, although I dare say it would slow it down considerably.
@A/C: So you prefer to stick loaded guns up your cavity of choice deadly-end-first?
Fair enough - that would make the initial insertion more comfortable. And the handle would of course be more accessible when it came to removal.
I just can't help thinking that there might be other factors to consider...
I would prefer not to stick anything loaded up any cavity of mine.
But if you're in a hurry to conceal a gun, even a loaded one, I guess you have little choices about the way to insert it. It is true that cavity can stretch a lot, but it may require some time, and be painful. Also, dependeding on the barrel length, trying to insert the handle could leave out a strange evidence for a woman...
Now being a Brit I accept that I don't have an all-encompassing knowledge of firearms, we don't seem to need them as much over here but this doesn't seem to work...
magazine, semi-automatic, revolver
Magazine I can settle with (thought that was a 'cylinder') but are revolvers semi-auto? I thought that referred to how the next round was chambered from the firing of the previous one?
1) revolver different story
2) actually some (rare) revolvers do rotate the cylinder on firing, these are called "automatic" (although, strictly speaking they are of course semi-automatic). Manual (most) revolvers rotate the cylinder and cock the hammer when you pull the trigger (rather than when you fire the round).
Depends on how you define things I guess...
If you go by ''automatically placing another round ready to be fired", then no, as the spent case stays in place...
If you go by "one shot fired for each trigger pull with out any other action by the shooter inbetween" then I'd say a double action revolver could be called be semi-auto while a single action revolver would not (as the SA requires the user to cock the hammer manually inbetween trigger pulls, wile the DA does that for you, at the expense of heavier/longer trigger pull.
Yes it is a dumb question and if you really did have any doubt the answer is in the article. I understand it might be beyond your attentioon span to go back and remember what you were looking for so I'll reproduce the relevant part "Officers immediately stopped and a female officer searched Castaneda".
..is the natural healthy vagina*?
What finish holds up better in that environment? Regular bluing, nickel, painted, or fancy drug dealer gold plating? Off-hand guess would be stainless steel - surgical grade. DARPA would probably give you a grant.
* Long ago in the Before Time (pre-internet), in a state far, far away, this commentard worked for the Arizona DoC - never worked a female prison (I'm not insane, I'm a man. Why borrow trouble?) - anyway, seen some interesting things keistered in different security level male prisons. One I'll leave with you:
Remember when your mum told you to never put money in your mouth, because you don't know where it's been? Well, I was working visitation one weekend and the supervisors suspected this random inmate was bringing drugs through. So after his visit, we took him in over for dry cell watch. A Dry cell watch is where somebody is placed under observation over a period of days, given all the food & drinks they want, with nothing but a bucket to do their business in. Then, some lucky officer (guard, whatever), gets to stir through the results with a stick, looking for contraband. On this particular guy, he shat two $20's and a $10. So the next time you go sticking money in your mouth, remember the inmate ATM...
Have a great day!
Ladies.
If you are so inclined to use your snatch for a firearms (handgun) holster
do so with only a uncocked revolver or with a semi automatic that is
striker fired as in Glock type designs!
If using a revolver make sure it is of modern design that has a hammer
block.
Your precious will be safe and no unexpected discharge.
Keep it snug, girls.
