I was going to make a joke about penis size but I’m a bigger man than that. Click here for ten more ways your condom collection can save your life, not including preventing child support payments. [h/t Aharon]

Speaking of size (even though it doesn’t matter!) Is that a Ruger 44 Mag carbine?
Haven’t seen one of those is a long time.

  I believe Robert agreed a little while ago to start identifying all firearms in pictures, as that is a regular question in comments…just sayin lol.

What’s incendiary? In the absence of a muzzle cap…

I remember reading “Seven Roads to Hell” by Donald R. Burgett years ago. He talked about how funny it must have seemed to the liberated villagers in France cheering the US troops on as they marched by with condoms still on the muzzles of their Garands to keep rain water out of the bore.

There it is!! A 99.7% successful preventive measure against suicide and accidental discharge!!!
Why the hell didn’t we think of this before???
And it can lubricate the bullets too!!!

  I think it goes somewhere else for accidental discharge LMAO
  Or is that premature discharge! 😉

The ATF is going to arrest you for that unregistered silencer!

Put it on a shotgun and prevents you from shooting your wad.

  50 points for the gun-pun.

Robert, for every fifty-plus serious political and gun-related stories and a few other types that I send you, you always seem to publish the most um ‘unique’ one or two of the other types.

  Nuh-uh. You just REMEMBER the weird ones.

    You mostly give me the public “h/t Aharon” only on the weird ones.

Serious question is there something in guns similar to hydrolock in a car engine?

Finger cots work better than condoms, and they’re cheaper by a very wide margin.

  I always just put a patch of electrical tape over the muzzle. If the tape appears torn or holed it’s time to do a check of the boom stick.
  - speedracer5050 November 30, 2012 At 07:17
    
    I hope you don’t put electrical tape over the muzzle of “anything”else??!!
    Sorry I couldn’t resist!!
    It’s 6:15 in the morn and I have been at work for 4 hrs already and got 8 or so more to go.
    These 60 and 70 hour weeks are gonna kill me!!!!

      I did the 60-80 hour a week thing for over 20 years. Wound up in the hospital with a doctor telling me if I didn’t stop I’d be dead. I stopped. Ain’t dead yet.

I kept a condom over the barrel of my M35A2 mounted Ma Deuce during Desert Storm.
