Re: Concealed Carry and Worrysome Family

When training new to shooting folks & they become frightened about my 1911 C&L I clear it & show them the TWO external manual safetys on the gun.
Reminding them a revolver has none & they are perfectly safe---Right??
Yes sir.
Your Glock, XD, Kahr,...has no external safety but is perfectly safe---Right??
Yes sir.
OK Your hunting rifle does not have a "Hammer" on it but the firing pin is "Cocked" & one safety on---Right??
Yes sir.
Safe??
Yes sir.
Your Glock, XD, Kahr does not have a "Hammer" showing but no safety & will fire when the trigger is pulled & it is safe---right??
Yes sir.
Then, w/ the 1911 clear & both safeties ingaged I hold it by the but & show them the trigger will not pull & it will not fire. Talk about internal firing pin block & drop safety.
I grip it & let them see the bever tail move. Trigger still will not pull or the gun fire.
Off the grip safety & disengauge the thumb safety. Trigger still wont pull & the gun wont fire.
Then proper grip & disengauge thumb then the trigger pulls & the hammer falls.
Now is my gun w/ a VISIBLE hammer back as safe as yours???
Yes sir.
So far it has worked every time. :thumbs2:
