A friend of mine came to me yesterday with a little request. He had asked if I could make 6-12 blanks for him to "pop off" to ring in the new year. I asked him if he was gonna try this in city limits. He replied, yes.
Now, out here in Arizona it is a felony to discharge a firearm in city limits and I reminded him of that. He didn't think firing blanks would be considered discharging a firearm. Needless to say I refused to help him on his little adventure and warned him that being a "test case" for the limits of any law is a bad idea.
What say you? I say he's a fool for even thinking that shooting blanks in city limits would be a good idea. Personally, I think that shooting blanks could still be considered discharging a firearm.
