Do items become ruined in hands?

[BeefBacon 1185]

Not really a new player, but this is something I just thought of and I was wondering if anybody knew the answer.

 

Let's say I find a revolver and I store it in my jeans, but I have it in my hands. If my jeans are ruined while the revolver is my my hands, does the revolver become damaged?

I think so

Hm. I thought that might be the case, though it's a bit of a shame. Would suck to be shot in the leg and then have your gun break.

yes, because me makarove was in me pants, and i feel off a building and it rurnt it.

Yep. I had this happened to me once, had a magnum stored in my jacket and had it in my hands when I entered a firefight, shot 3 rounds, got shot at, hit to the chest, ruined jacket, ruined magnum, click, click, click, trying to fire the 3 rounds left but to no avail... 

 

Although, when I read your question, I thought of the second instance of having  a weapon in hands. I think, and just because it never happened to me, (so it might but false) that if you have no room on you or you're double carrying, that the weapon in your hands can't get damaged. On a few occasions I somehow survived, or killed players, that everything ended up being ruined except for the item in hands, or the double carried gun. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Weeeell, technically your weapon is still in your pants (He!), even though you're carrying it.
