[QUOTE="alank2, post: 1331446, member: 108"] Hi, Each mechanism is different, and thankfully most are far better designed and have some passive safety components to them. Most modern pistols have a secondary safety mechanism such as a firing pin block which prevents the firing pin from moving forward past the breechface unless the trigger is held back. Or the transfer bar in a revolver that will not allow the hammer to transfer its energy to the firing pin unless the trigger is held back putting the transfer bar in place. One thing I've learned about firearms is that it is worth taking a look at how it works internally before buying one... Good luck, Alan [/QUOTE]
