Odds 'n Sods:
I mentioned this about a year ago, but it bears repeating: By SOP,
any firearm that comes out of our vault here at the Rawles
Ranch is immediately loaded. Everyone in the family
assumes
that any gun seen anywhere here at the ranch is loaded at
all times, and it is always treated as such. Avoiding any ambiguity
helps reduce the chance of accidents.
