Does anyone sensible trust gun safeties? The only reliable safety is the training of the person holding the firearm. Everything else is just decorative. I may use the safety, but I NEVER trust it, nor do I ever pull the trigger except to make the gun go “BOOM!”

Every gun is loaded, all the time. If I watch you break down clean and reasemble a a pistol. When you hand it to me I’m going tu check it.

I think it was a book by Applegate that taught me not to use the safety on my Ruger semi-auto. Teach yourself, using an EMPTY gun, to rack it when you need it...now you are ready to fire.

If it worked for the Chinese cops in Shanghai in the 20s, it ought to work for me.
