    Default How not to use a Safety



    It's a happy ending and lesson to the "I want an external safety crowd."

    Maybe training has more to do than the actual safety.

    What would you recommend?

    Know your gun and have frequent visits to the range practicing draws and shooting from your carry condition.

    It looks like he cocked his pistol at 01:08 and I assume he carried empty chamber but forgot.

    In my honest opinion, his "failure" reminds me A LOT of untrained, unskilled newbies who get hold of a gun and experience a failure to fire on the range. He had no idea what was wrong. The gun doesn't fire and for a second he just stands there pointing the non-shooting gun at the robber.
