I swear safetys are the dumbest fricking thing ever invented.
A fricking hug box bullshit add on that at best makes you look like a moron when the gun doesn't go off at the range or at WORST costs you your fricking life when the gun doesn't go off when you need it to defend yourself.
What are the best hand guns and long guns to get that dont have fricking safetys??
Looking for something for home defense mainly.
you have to be 18 to post here
I'm 23
its a bullshit mechanic
every shitty gun i've ever used had a fricking safety and
every
fricking
TIME
it was on when i tried to take my first shot at the range
they are most annoying frickin pieces of shit ever invented and i dont get WHY they fricking exist
if you dont want to shoot?
DONT LOAD THE FRICKING GUN
DONT PULL THE FRICKING TRIGGER
its not that god damn hard
I dont leave my guns loaded and i dont carry them loaded
its a stupid fricking mechanic
also apperciate how you just dismissed the point of you fricking dying because you missed the opportunity with a home intruder
>every shitty car i've ever crashed had a fricking airbag and

>DONT PUT ON YOUR FRICKING SEATBELT
>DONT HIT THE FRICKING BRAKES
>its not that god damn hard
You jest but people hated and actively resisted attempts at seatbelt and airbag improvements.
Yeah a a lot of people, statistically, are fricking double-digit IQ morons
Or, alternatively, they objected to being forced to do things by the government.
Like I said
You misunderstand. These are rational people, who were considering whether they valued the marginal reduction in risk of death over the marginal increase in inconvenience and aggravation. Volvo carved out a whole niche for itself as the safest car on the market. What bugged people then (to the point of electing a president who appointed a guy to the NHTSA who promptly rescinded the rule requiring improved passive restraints from automakers), was that the government took away their choice and told them "you're going to do this."
some people are stupid enough that they need to be forced to due the sensible thing
unfortunately, education/IQ based laws will never be a thing so everybody has to suffer the consequences of the LCD being a hazard to themselves and others
if such people are so stupid why do you insist on ensuring they survive long enough to reproduce??
I disagree. Certainly on a subject like this, people ought to be allowed to make their own choices. The only people who will be affected by a refusal to buy more modern passive restraints is that they get killed in accidents others can survive. Darwin at work.
Additionally, it wasn't a few. We're talking roughly half the country. The NHTSA's initial attempt in the field was going to be automatic seatbelts combined with ignition interlock systems. I'll quote Wikipedia for the rest:
>This mandate applied to passenger cars built after August 1973, i.e., starting with the 1974 model year. The specifications required the system to permit the car to be started only if the belt of an occupied seat were fastened after the occupant sat down, so pre-buckling the belts would not defeat the system.[93][94]...In 1974, Congress acted to prohibit NHTSA from requiring or permitting a system that prevents a vehicle from starting or operating with an unbelted occupant, or that gives an audible warning of an unfastened belt for more than 8 seconds after the ignition is turned on.[94][96] This prohibition took effect on 27 October 1974, shortly after the 1975 model year began.[97]
I want you to really consider how massive the public outcry must have been to prompt Congressional action on this. This is the sort of thing it would be loathe to wade into in the first place, and even if they had they rarely move this quickly. Whatever your opinions on them now, seatbelt and airbag requirements were forced down the country's throat. Unless you wanna go the next step and tell me the whole country's moronic and don't deserve the liberty they've supposedly been granted, this is more than "some people."
>These are rational people
They're not
>who were considering whether they valued the marginal reduction in risk of death over the marginal increase in inconvenience and aggravation
It is a substantial increase of safety& reduction of risk
I understand you perfectly well

Come back when you're 18+
>and i dont carry them loaded
Absolute window licker
Went too hard too early, bad troll attempt
tsmt, OP's probably the same guy who makes the "AR15 dust cover is unnecessary and dead weight" threads
Sad attempt at trolling. Even sadder that you're getting replies, but at this point in the year of our Lord 20+24, your replies are probably bots. I hope you eventually find something more fulfilling to do with your time.
trolling playbook for zoomers just fricking suck man
the internet was a mistake
>when the gun doesn't go off when you need it to defend yourself.
>i dont carry them loaded
So this is the power of double digit IQ.
Huuurrrreeeeee
I think the "at best" part would probably be preventing a discharge you didn't intend.
But if you care more about how others perceive you then that's cool too
Glock trigger safeties are good enough for a pistol, why not a rifle?
A pistol is kept in a holster till it's ready to use. A rifle's trigger is always out in the open. So it's always open to have something snag the trigger.
You can say the same for pistols which is why I'll never understand safetyless handguns. Pistols don't always live in holsters either, because then you can't shoot it, clean it, finger frick it, etc
You have a hard time with reading comprehension? A handgun lives the majority of it's life holstered. At least one that is chambered and ready to go. You're not supposed to pull it out of its holster and finger frick it when you're in your car eating McDonald's in the parking lot. It's supposed to stay in the holster the entire time. So no safety is necessary.
A rifle is slung on your chest/shoulder/back, it has no holster protecting the trigger guard. Any piece of kit/gear or something in the environment like a branch can get snagged on the trigger. This cannot happen to a holstered handgun.
morons snag glock triggers on their holsters all the time. And there's no risk to snagging the trigger if the chamber is empty, it's safer than having the safety on with the chamber loaded.
No they don't. The holster is never the culprit of the trigger being snagged. It's that their shirt or drawstring gets in the holster and THAT causes the Glock to pop off. The only gun that's been going off in holsters without any foreign object inside of the holster has been the Sig P320s because sideways pressure on the frame and/or trigger releases the striker in that shitty design.
>The holster is never the culprit of the trigger being snagged.
Thank goodness nobody make shitty holsters.
>2024
>Still using leather holsters
Shiggy Diggy
Leather holsters are the most effay holsters
Most ofay holsters
Same reason AR safety goes safe-semi-auto instead of auto-safe-semi like on the original AR10s.
>Low crawl through brush
>random crap snags trigger (earlier random crap also switched safety from safe to auto, have fun)
Stop. Read and fully understand the manual before using this firearm.
brainlet absolutely filtered
Tokarev tt30/33
As intended.
Steyr m9a1 has no safety
Frick ya mudda

For handguns, I agree. Keep it in the holster and don’t touch the trigger if you don’t want to fire. For rifles, when they’re slung on your body and you aren’t using them, and they have a light single action trigger, it would in theory be very easy for the trigger to catch on something, especially if you’re carrying other equipment.
Exactly. The issue is compounded with the light trigger pull that most people put on their rifles nowadays. Even a 5lb milspec AR trigger pull is pretty light compared to a DA/SA pistol
OP is the type of dipshit to sue the gun company when he accidentally shoots himself after dismanntling the safety on his gun
Will not but WOULD absolutely sue them for being assualted in my home because the safety was still on while i was trying to stop a home intruder
Company would file a of judgement as matter of law, judge would dismiss the case with prejudice in favor of the company. Congrats you wasted time& money on a frivolous case
*motion for summary judgement as a matter of law
And here I was thinking maybe the reason they have those warnings of
>gun can still shoot with no magazine inserted
across the the frame is because of morons like OP
Overall, dumb thread
