10. Guns and cars?
apples and oranges. Back to guns, it dont matter if a gun has no safetys or a hundred safetys only way a gun can fire is if you pull the trigger. There is no such thing as an accidental shooting, a concious effort has to be made to pull the trigger. Only thing a chamber loaded indicator is that the pistol has to have an external extracter which sticks out a little bit when a round is chambered. My only experiance with them is with the beretta I carried in the Air Force, and I have to say it is very hard to tell the difference either way. As magazine safetys goes most of them make for a harder trigger pull which makes the gun less accurate, that is just what we need. I will admit for the average gun owner it does have the option of being able to keep a gun with a loaded chamber and the magazine hid away and the gun is safe, it is bad for people that have to carry guns for defense since during a tactical reload while you are being shot at the gun is on safe.
