I'll bet there were those who ND'ed DAO revolvers...
Very easy to do if you cock the piece for some reason and then go to decock it without your brain engaged.Quote:

The Sigs I've handled lately are flat out disturbing. Their "Scorpion" is exemplar. That thing is essentially a 1911 with no safeties.
The M17 at least has a manual safety, even if it doesn't do anything but block the trigger.
There will be consequences that result from this proliferation of fully cocked striker fired pistols with short, light trigger presses.
No problem, been there, done that...Quote:
