lol... his preferred carry weapon is his .380... he said it has "the longest trigger pull in Texas".
Gov. Perry has several different models that he owns and carries.
On this day he was carrying a Ruger LCP .380 with laser sights. Nice, powerful, little sub-compact, but the trigger pull was much too long for my taste (yes, the Gov. invited me into his alley, handed me his locked and loaded weapon and invited me to squeeze some rounds off downrange).
His security guy was going nuts -— about 12 local-yocals with loaded handguns mere feet from the Governor. Hell, when Perry handed me his loaded Ruger I was less than a foot from him holding HIS loaded live weapon.
Not 2 other governors in America would have done this event the way Perry did.
