I kind of feel bad for him. Why make a guy who hates guns carry one as a coroner. When I worked for the ME's office I had to carry and qualify. One of the pathologists burned her cornea when she got 9mm BTF during her qual. BTF? Help me out here. Brass to face. Lodged between her glasses and eye and burned the shit out of her. My buddy had a POS Steyr handgun that launched brass right, left, and center. Literally. A piece of brass flew back perfectly at 12:00 and landed on the rim of my glasses between my nose. I went cross-eyed for a second looking at it before I realized how badly it was burning and shook it off. I can definitely see a piece of brass getting between someone's glasses and eyes. *Good fitting* glasses are a must when shooting. |

Bullshit, unless some piece of clothing got in the holster and set off the trigger or it wasn't a rigid holster. View Quote Nope, I am a Glock guy. I was at a class and a guy had a Glock go off while in the holster. He was pressing the mag release and it boomed. I was looking at it when he did it. At least one other member here who owns the facility was also present. The man who owned the gun had the trigger modified in such a way that it was too light to touch without discharging. I saw it. he bought a new gun during the lunch break. |

The striker is only 60% charged when the pistol returns to battery and there's a striker block safety as well. The striker can't release until the trigger is manipulated to provide the remaining 40% and deactivate the striker block. It happened while improperly re-holstering; due to the pistol's design there's no other way. “Charlie was wearing a jacket, and he thinks the trigger got held up on part of his jacket,” Shore said. |

I never understood that, especially this being a forum dedicated to a rifle that has a thumb actuated selector/safety. I have been told that using your thumb to deactivate a safety on draw, and activate it again as you are re bolstering, is nearly impossible for average humans. These same people say that activating an electronic sight, while raising their rifle, then activating their weaponlightwith the weak hand and flipping the rifle safety with their strong hand, can be done in an unconscious fluid motion. |

Lol, they make ol Charles carry one so if he encounters any crazies at night, he can go ahead and shoot himself in the leg and save the crazy person the trouble.
Way to to Charles. |

Assuming a chambered round: Stays in a holster = no safety needed Doesn't stay in a holster = safety needed You are making the argument that the holster is the safety. Correct. A rigid holster which prevents pressing the trigger while the gun is inside of said holster precludes the need for a safety when a firearm is used properly. |
