Old known problem for many firearms- drop it and it goes boom. Solution, don"t drop it with round in chamber or under firing pin. Can be a legal problem -Ruger lost suit on safety of original Blackhawk when hammer hit- resulted in design change for many-the transfer bar operated by triger between hammer and firing pin is one. 1911 grip safety is a drop/fire preventive measure at request of military worried about ADs. MP38 and early Stens had a problem if dropped on butt end with discharges- safety notch in reciever slot for bolt handle was fix. If this is a serious issue?? Maybe design of safety will be changed a bit so inertia of barrel down drop doesn"t release safety and let firing pin trip. Winchester 94 levers have had a safety trigger release button since 1970s? Lever has to be firmly held against stock before trigger can be pulled- drop gun and lever not firmy held means less chance of AD. Grip safeties on some other guns- mostly pistols, maybe the newest shotguns will require them also. Local gun control groups in California had a proposed drop test before sale allowed proposal to stop sale of Glocks- the stronger initial trigger/release spring that police requested passed while earliest models sometimes fired after repeated tests- tests were a little extreme. warning labels now on coffee cups from drivethrus, shouldn"t surprise anyone that guns will need warning labels to keep lawyers happy. Some of the whacky gangbangers need the warning labels perhaps in 2 or 3 languages. RN.
