Well, I guess I'm the only idiot.
Maybe it was the way I was raised.
Never trust the safety.
Always use your 4 rules.
I was at the range with the boy scouts shooting 22s. One of the Moms comes up, somethings wrong with her new single shot. Couldn't figure it out. Didn't want to mess up a brand new rifle. Told her to take it to her husband who was running the shotgun side.
She came back grinnin. Said it was the safety was on. Why didn't I figure that out? Told her that in over 30 years of weapons, I'd only used a safety when I was a kid, and a supervisor type said I had to.
So, never really had to deal with them.
If your gun goes off on its own, you have other problems to deal with.
WTH?
Just because you don't trust a safety that doesn't mean you don't use it .
