When I was working at the MRI plant for GE there was an incident in New York where a police officer refused to lock his weapon in the provided personal lockers and went into the magnet room with it still in his holster. Immediately ripped out of his belt and discharged in the center of the magnet. Luckily no one was injured.

They had to ramp down the magnet to get it out - which basically lost the hospital the MRI for the day.

You bhave no 2nd amnedment rights in an MRI scanning room.

See how easy that was?

Now watch for the next incursion. I can unload my gun and still bring it. Or have a lead lined cover.No problem then.

Bunch of scuzzy leftists.

I remember hearing about that.

I used to work for a company that made Cat Scan machines back in the early 90’s....................

Detailed in a report by the UTTERLY UNCONSTITUTIONAL AND DANGEROUS US Food and Drug Administration

She shot herself in the butt. The 80% unconstitutional federal govnet is attempting to shoot America and our lives, liberties, and free pursuits in the head.

Worth repeating the truth as often as possible in this age of lies, deceit, and delusion.

Who cares?

lead is not magnetic, neither is polymer

you could always use titanium for the random other parts

The IRON is the problem.

The magnet is so powerful that your gun will be ripped away from your holster...................

“Bathed in an MRI’s typical magnetic field of around 1.5 to 3 tesla, there’s less wiggling and more heating, shaking, and leaping.” Not sure, but I think I saw this on Skin-emax back in the 90s... ;)

Did the gun actually discharge? Or was the firearm itself the projectile?
