I wrote this article for the CMA firearms education and it's published on the CMA website. I re-post it here for all shooters interested in the technical details of safe pistol design.


Technical Pistol Safety

We will have a closer look at the technical design of safety features of pistols with a focus on relevance for dynamic sports shooting and duty use. We have picked some specific models that serve as examples of popular pistol types. Their firing mechanisms and safety features are described in detail.


The goal of the article is to help understand potential safety hazards and resilient technical design that minimizes the associated risks. Check it out in the downloads below in either English or German language.



I hope you enjoy reading it!


Sincerely,


Andy
