      Nothing to prove here, other than I was happy to have a drop safe gun at the time (HK P30). One time I was running drills in gravel and slipped, let go of the gun on accident, and when it hit the ground the barrel was aimed at me. After clearing it I had to take a quick walk and the whole time I was glad it was drop safe and unmodified. I'm now more comfortable with a not drop safe gun as Ive improved, but I always think about that moment when I'm running something not drop safe

    I was 5 feet away from a guy holstering a Shadow went it went off. It was a steel challenge match and I was watching the holster when it happened. He did not apply the safety when it went into the holster, and it fired when it went in. It was a fully enclosed holster. Missed his ankle by about 3 inches. The RO was a joke and I spoke to him after it happened for not DQ'ing the guy for not applying the safety. This is why I was watching, because I suspected he was not applying the safety previously either. I can't say that I know what set it off, but it happened.

      I would love to see IDPA and USPSA change their rules to allow it. Unfortunately, the way the rules are written for Production/SSP, a DA pistol without a decocker has to start with the hammer in the fully down position.

    I was a Policeman at an airport. Its ridiculous to think an unloaded magazine would be confiscated. But TSA is another Federal agency always looking for more work and if I intervened it would usually make it worse for the citizen. Shooters, security people..ect often forget their guns in their carry on luggage and this you want to avoid. Ammo and knives would simply be confiscated and a report made but a gun will get you pinched every time. I never got called over an empty magazine, which might as well be a fountain pen, but TSA can be a hard bunch to reason with. Something about that job just makes them ornery. The airlines can be just as bad. I had a counter-drone's hold up shooter's because they didn't have their ammo in the exact box's they bought the rounds in so I used to carry in my work bag empty 9mm ammo box's for citizens who got held up like that so's they wouldn't have to lose their ammo. I would tell them the JHP's were from the exact FMJ box's I pulled out my ass for them.

    The idea there's no Ads only negligent is one of those mantra that only lasts till you get into gunsmith ING or manufacturing you're own firearm designs.
    Iv seen guns fire when they were charged, fire when you drop the slide with the slide release, even one where the safety being released was enough movement to set one off.
    Race holster negligence is an issue and you should NEVER attempt to catch a dropped gun.
    Theres a lot of ways modified guns can get sketchy and that's always something that makes me question the drop tests and claims of an AD though.

    In this case at USPSA for sure its user error .

    Do we know that the XC has a normal length firing pin though? Maybe, in their quest to getting a 2lb trigger pull instead of doing things the "right way" they are using light hammer springs and making up for that with an extended firing pin.

I'm aware that this will be possible on every series 70 type gun on the planet, but it should be a bit tougher than the first go lol.
