Do you know what U.S. Airways, the news media, and TSA has not told the public about an accidental discharge of a weapon on a U.S. Airways flight? ABC did state the weapon was a HK (Heckler and Koch) .40 cal pistol, but they did not tell you it employed HK’s innovative LEM (Law Enforcement Modification) trigger system. Maybe they did not know what the LEM trigger system is.

<- - - HK P2000SK .40 Cal with LEM

An HK pistol with the LEM trigger does not have a safety on it to be turned on or off. The weapon, once loaded and cocked with a round chambered is at the ready to fire and will discharge the round once the trigger is pulled and will do so without the need to take off a safety. Simply draw and pull the trigger to fire. This pistol will not fire unless the trigger is pulled!

The Heckler and Koch, USB Compacts and P2000SK weapons are excellent concealable weapons. The LEM trigger system and the weapons carried by eligible crew members has went through extraordinary testing, is extremely reliable, and safe if carried and used properly. HK produces excellent weapons and are carried by many law enforcement and government professionals, along with special forces units throughout the world. As with any weapon it is only as safe as the person handling and operating it.

Over 500,000,000,000 (5 billion) dollars have been spent on the Iraq war alone. While here at home many Americans are struggling with the high cost of fuel, food, health care, and housing. Americans appear to have lost interest in the wars, but when are they going to draw the correlation between the cost of the war and the economy? And what about the cost to America in the loss of life and the lives of those who return severely injured?
