Since these are not revolvers, they don't add to the point of carrying on an empty cylinder.

Outside of the revolver discussion, it's important to note that both of these examples were the result of QA issues that have since been corrected.

    Firstly, I don't have an obsession with revolvers; it's just that you responded to a conversation specifically about design changes in revolvers that mitigated the need to carry on empty cylinder.

    Secondly, this is another example of a limited QA issue that has since been corrected with a recall. It doesn't seem to indicate that a modern revolver with properly functioning parts would be dangerous to carry with all cylinders loaded. Otherwise, are you to say all airbags are dangerous just because of the Takata/Honda issue that killed some people when the airbags exploded?

    All airbags are dangerous, and this has been known for decades. It's a literal explosive box sitting right besides your thumbs. The fact they save lives doesn't make them any less dangerous. Now, if that's valid for an item developed exclusively to save lives, imagine what we can say about a weapon intended solely for killing and maiming.

    That's not the statement I was replying to. The "this only happened to revolvers like 100 years ago" was the focus, which is just factually wrong. Still happens, sooo.. great? I guess. Have a nice day
