OVER all the years I have had 3 that reoccurred in no apparent order or for any special reason. Not after one of those close brushes with mortality or when the times are bad. They would just pop in.
1-in a shooting situation and as the bad guy pulls down on you you try to fire your revolver(always a revolver for some reason) and the cylinder starts to rotate but then the system slowly grinds to a halt alomst as if instant rust seized up the gun...
2- another shooting situation- go to pull the trigger and the revolver goes boom, but then, the bullet slow motions out of the barrel and like in a cartoon the bullet falls to the ground in a slow arc.
3- shooting situation and pull the trigger and the revolver literally disolves as if it were made of sand and just sort of is blown away grain by grain.
the ocassional one about getting shot but nothing to compare to the firearm failure ones.
Over LOTS of years in LE and after talking to LOTS of other cops they all had kind of similar dreams to deal with.....
the interesting thing was that when I went into drug work and doing a lot of undercover, they became more infrequent and then pretty much stopped all together.
anyone else want to join me on the "couch?"
