The fired case was still in the chamber. The manual safety was on. No mention of the firing pin block was made, so I presume it had not been removed from this service weapon. It was investigated by the Rochester NY police Lost Sheephttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11926413811063208176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8293484.post-4670754575832528592007-12-05T15:32:00.000-07:002007-12-05T15:32:00.000-07:00Like most "accidental discharge" stories, somethin...Like most "accidental discharge" stories, something isn't quite right with it. First, the thumb safety blocks the hammer and sear with a steel wedge. If that isn't engaged, and the hammer slips off the sear(?), it's caught by the half-cock notch. Finally, the grip safety prevents the trigger from moving and overriding the half-cock (unless it's depressed). And, the thumb safety reengaged?

One thing to keep in mind, their magnets are pretty much always on, as they are supercooled, and it takes a while to get them back up to power after shutting them down. Moral of the story - be very careful around MRI machines - the magnet is always on.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8293484.post-10734306495693290942007-06-29T16:23:00.000-06:002007-06-29T16:23:00.000-06:00Joemerchant24, you got the quote wrong: (from Die ...Joemerchant24, you got the quote wrong: (from Die Hard 2)<BR/><BR/><I>That punk pulled a Glock 7 on me!
