"But it is very possible that a gun may go off if you trip or drop it," Holmes tells him. "So it is prudent to take every precaution." His eyes narrow. "I wouldn't know.

Holmes has his own small gun (as yet unrevealed) which he may or may not use. It was, except for not getting home until after 1 AM. :( Will definitely need a nap today. *snort* 'I am the Walrus!' :D
