This being the Glorious 25th of May, I give you Terry Pratchett's Box, which contains a furious Greebo the Cat. Death says CATS ARE NICE. But not Greebo, who's hungry enough to eat a vampire.

And his Gonne, which may or may not be safely stored at the Assassin's Guild.

And his razor wit, which always cuts straight to the Truth.

While "Schrodinger's gun" seems like it would make sense, it often leads to negligence or complacence. ALWAYS treat a firearm as if it were loaded, no exceptions, even if you have double and triple checked to see that there is no ammunition in it.

This applies to firearms, not parts of firearms. A pistol slide assembly separated from its frame is in 2 parts ans not a whole gun

at what point is a non fully assembled gun treated like it's loaded?

I'm not a gun person (from the UK so only time I have seen one is at the airport) but I assume when it is assembled enough to launch a bullet, even if it has to be manually placed?

Alec Baldwin never heard of Schrodinger's gun

I'd call it the "Rusty Gun"
