Correct weapon, weapon discipline, and debunking the sociopath? Marry me?

Hee! I wrote this right after reading lamardeuse's post to sherlockbbc about John's gun, so of course I made sure it was the right one.

I took a semester-long class called "Serial Killers and Sociopaths" in undergrad, which included reading Robert Ressler, and also the research on Edmund Kemper that informed the OC in this ficlet. I wouldn't say it makes me an expert or anything, but it's nice to use that psych minor...

Indeed--I think John is the definition of "sheepdog" according to the metaphor, the sort of person every gun nut thinks they are when they bring it up.
