Discussion

Between Arthur Bremer, Mark David Chapman and the Son of Sam, Charter Arms certainly found quite a following amongst nutjobs. --Funkychinaman (talk) 18:56, 31 December 2014 (EST)

Wasn't there another infamous assassin/would-be assassin that used a CA revolver? Well in any event, that is a sad coincidence, but a pretty apt one as well, I agree with ya. Though I've found that it seems plenty of nuts use revolvers (when they aren't using 'assault weapons', anyway), which peeves me slightly being a revolver guy. But generally, they always work and were the dominant handgun type for the better part of more than a century so I guess it makes sense. Though for so many to use a particular brand and even gun like that, like I said, sad. Whatever, though - At the end of the day we of course all know that even while it may facilitate such action, a firearm, regardless of type, brand, or particular model, ultimately has very little if anything to do with a nutjob murderer being a nutjob murderer.
