27. From the article
"The gun has no manual safety to prevent it from firing if the trigger is accidentally pulled. In fact, the gun’s safety features — extremely effective in preventing discharges if the gun is dropped or hit — automatically are turned off every time the trigger is depressed."


In over 30 years of gun handling...rifle, shotgun, pistol, revolver, I have never had a trigger "accidentally" pulled. I have seen a couple of times a trigger was pulled without the weapon being pulled. The weapons were, thanks to safe gun handling, pointed in a safe direction at all times, i.e. NOT at someone's head!
