CHiPs - Season 4 - Baricza draws a gun ("Karate" episode)

Baricza encounters some of Andy Macedon's kids stripping a car on Lorenzo Drive. Baricza tells them to get down on the ground, but Billy fights back. He's taking quite a beating and knocked back onto his cruiser. He rolls off just before the van backs into the cruiser. Baricza keeps fighting, but gets knocked to the ground. Finally, he pulls his gun on Billy and the kids drive off as he looks at his gun with regret.

Officer Baricza has been seen drawing a weapon to protect himself three times. The first was when he encountered a group of men running a casino in a motor home and held the shotgun from his patrol car. He drew his weapon next in "Peaks and Valleys". Finally, he pulled his service revolver after being beaten and knocked to the ground by a minor who knew karate and was threatening him with a weapon.

==========

Arguably one of the best Chips episodes out of all the seasons and one of the VERY few if THE only time a gun was pulled and actually forcefully pointed at someone with the intention to actually use it. Barry Baricza was a great character on Chips. Even though a supporting character, he was a mainstay of Chips through the years and they were better for having him. Too bad he didn't ride the "motors" eventually but he always stayed a "road dawg" cop which is cool too.

Yeah, this was a great scene.

@The199911 No I 100% agree but I also think he would have pulled-it during the hesitation Danny showed slowly pulling that bo out of the van. He was outclassed physically by a mile and that gun (which was impressive for Chips -- note that cylinder has no light showing through the "holes") would have been out and could have been used.

@DramaDon83 I hear you..me too. I'd love a master of this show w/o the terrible audio but I'm glad someone was good enough to put this on YouTube anyway (not complaining) :-)

0:42 that was sooooo BAD ASS -- and the Martial Arts teacher Danny B had in this was awesome too. He climbed in the ring and told "Ponch" (who he would have beat to death in 15 seconds) "I wouldn't worry about my shape -- you're not gonna be standing very long.."

If this had not beena kids show desgened not to show guns billy would have on the groud with a bullet in his chest after the numchucks came out i think bear should have shot him thumbs up if you agree

Wish Baricza would blown that fucking punk's head off.

I watched the show religiously,but I do not remember this scene at all.

Very nice fight scene and one of my favorite Chips episodes. Technically, Danny Bonaduce's character should've gotten inot a LOT of trouble for using the nunchakus...because they're a felony in California! :-)

Also, the use of the police baton could be technically called martial art weapon vs. martial art weapon in this scene, just because the darn thing looks so much like a tonfa. Thanks for posting.

@ChristopherSaindon..I was a teen when this was on...I was fasinated with nunchkas..god how I wish I could go back to this time..for so many reasons.

Danny B owned that cop like a BOSS! Seriously, I don't think he was all bullshit - there are some martial arts skills there.

They should have let Bear be the guy to finally nab the Danny Bonaduce character in this ep. The glory almost always went to Ponch & Jon & Bear deserved to get it in this ep.
