Simple. A gun whose owner doesn’t
honorrespect the safety.Right. He probably wasn’t too keen on upkeep and maintenance, treating it like a used Toyota Corolla.
There are guns with flaws that cause them to discharge when dropped, like the SIG P320, so it wasn’t necessarily poor maintenance.
Yeah but why buy a gun with a known tendency of randomly going off?
Because you are personally unaware despite it being “known” publicly? That’d be my first guess.
Even the ones that don’t have manual safeties still have automatic safeties these days.
