- show quoted text - I wouldn't get all warm and fuzzy knowing that, at some point in a gun's life, it passed a drop test. There are some cowboys out there who have trigger work done that would make a gun more likely to go off when dropped. There was a poster here that had work done on his gun that caused it to be dangerous to even look at. He got rid of it like a hot potatoe once it was brought to his attention how dangerous that gun was. -------- Polishing triggers. I never saw much future in stuff like that. |

Statistically that guy was a lot more dangerous driving drunk than dropping his gun ... but that is not "news". You seem to have an apologetica ready for any sort of gun nonsense. You seem to spend a lot of time searching for gun nonsense. Why? Are you trying to show what a 'sensiible' person you are? -- Ban idiots, not guns! Gun nonsense? Well, that says a lot about you. I don't suppose you recall using the phrase, eh? I'm trying hard not to call you some names you know you deserve. -- Ban idiots, not guns! |

Gee...don't y'all think they might have a mechanical machine to do it? You don't need a live round to drop test a gun. A blank or just an empty primed case will work just fine. (the latter being the easiest and cheapest). I also doubt this is a machine. I imagine there is a protocol they follow (height, surface, angle etc). They just have some government apparatchik sitting on a stool dropping guns all day. Just a clarification ... virtually *all* handguns since the 1940's have some sort of transfer block or other mechanism that prevents the hammer from striking the firing pin unless the trigger is pulled. The drop test required in Massachusetts is intended to ensure the mechanism works as advertised. I wouldn't get all warm and fuzzy knowing that, at some point in a gun's life, it passed a drop test. There are some cowboys out there who have trigger work done that would make a gun more likely to go off when dropped. There was a poster here that had work done on his gun that caused it to be dangerous to even look at. He got rid of it like a hot potatoe once it was brought to his attention how dangerous that gun was. Cowboy action shooters have single action pistols and they usually hold the trigger all the way down and thumb the hammer to shoot. I am not sure what you would have to do with it. The only way those old Colt design pistols were safe was with the hammer down over an empty chamber anyway. It is a little safer in the half cock position but not much. I think my Frontier Scout is drop safe but I still only load 5 most of the time |

I never have a round chambered unless I am about to fire 5th edition gun. Four of the five firearms I use have had trigger jobs. They won't fire without a round in the chamber or if dropped. Flajim is just playing his usual role as usenet asshole. Are you assuming I was talking about you and the CZ you destroyed? |
