LOL ... I'm good friends with my sheriff, and one day I was sitting in his office and he was showing me a busted revolver he'd taken off a crook.
He was dry firing it and it wouldn't shoot (IIRC it was the trigger mechanism). Then he turned it sideways and pulled the trigger, and the hammer fired.
We decided then that busted trigger mechanisms are the reason why the hoodlums always turn their guns sideways.
