[QUOTE="cscokd, post: 1759449, member: 5609"] Considering it was a 3 year old, I'm betting probably not a DAO; too much trigger. I would guess something chambered and cocked, and either safety off or the kid was able to flip the safety. Or even a small revolver with an exposed hammer. Kid uses both thumbs to cock the hammer and ends up with a hair trigger. I'm sitting here fiddling with my H&K USP Compact (verified empty). Trigger is long and heavy in DA mode, but when cocked the manual safety is very light, and with no 1911 style grip safety... very plausible. [/QUOTE]
