That really is the best, even for new guns.
The should redesign the saftey.
They should think of bringing out a model based upon the Edge frame and saftey
My safety has been NONE working for years. Never had an accident or even close to it. Like others say, cock it when you wanna fire it then uncock it when you don’t
I agree. I removed the safety from my TalonP for two reasons, one, I feel safer with the safety gone and ,two, I needed to make room for the fake M16 magazine. I carry the gun loaded but uncocked. Only cock it when I’m ready to shoot.
Would it be safe to say that anyone with a gun that has triggered off when the safety was put to fire should inspect the sear and transfer bar for rounded edges?
They might have an unsafe situation that the use of the safety discloses.
I agree that removal of the parts makes for the best solution to the POS safety.
For those new to the subject
If you uncock your AF rifle and the hammer drops and the gun fires
The first thing to check is the spring #6. You can move it forward one position or you can give it a slight stretch to make it a bit longer. Both have been shown to fix the problem. If it continues to misfire then you need to check and make sure the bolt has not worn down enough to the point it is pushing the “Striker Release” down and disengaging from the hammer. If it is you can deepen the notch in the bolt to give it the clearance it needs to remedy the problem.
But to be honest if you remove #1,2,3,4 your gun will be safer and you simply cock and uncock your gun as needed.
Safety?
What this fix does is lower the sear into the firing position before the safety is removed. So I think this is a workaround, not a fix. A good workaround though.
Without it, the sear is elevated slightly by the safety block and the hammer is pushing against the sear.
When you release the safety the hammer pushes the sear down further and in some cases releases it.
The better fix for misfires is making that square notch mentioned in many other threads about triggers with heavy hammer springs. This eliminates misfires and allows the safety to remain in place.
Apples and oranges really. Some people are going to remove that safety even if it works.
There are a couple of reasons for the safety misfire problem, and the “impact on the sear by the safety lever” has not been shown to be a major problem.
But his fix should be tested on an actual gun that has the problem…. which his did not.
