How could it lose value over a law wich
broadens the ability to carry?
Before the CHL law, the ability to legally carry was limited; creating the chl law had no negative impact on barrels of any size.
I think the reference was to the fact that Pythons, and maybe the 6" ones, are highly prized revolvers that command a high value on the used market. So under the "tote law" (as described), giving the seller a "lowball" offer in an effort to buy the gun cheap could be a violation and get the pawn shop owner in trouble.
