Police say a mother is facing a child endangerment charge after her toddler found a gun in her purse and accidentally fired it in a southern Ohio Walmart store last week
Not a super knowledgeable gun guy, but I think a fairly common example is for the “safety” to be part of the trigger. Safety’s traditionally weren’t meant to prevent someone from shooting the gun, they were there to prevent the gun from going off if you dropped it.
Any gun made in the last 50 years shouldn’t go off if dropped. Physical safeties have always been about preventing human error. Trigger blades don’t do anything to prevent this. I get a lot of flack in the gun community for this opinion but Glock doing away with physical safeties made the entire gun world more dangerous.
