As Fits noted, you can remove their lock on the 1911 by changing the hammer out, on their revolvers I can honestly say I've never engaged the lock intentionally, and never had a revolver lock up on accident. I've put thousands and thousands of rounds down out of Taurus guns, and they get a whole hearted stamp of approval from me. Like I said, I buy Taurus for a reason.

Will those same lawyers be held accountable when an accidentally "locked" S&W fails to discharge when it's needed, and someone is assaulted/raped/murdered as a result? That's a purely rhetorical question. We know bloody well that there will be NO accountability for injuries resulting from these failures, either from the manufacturer or the Brady Bunch.

It just took a little work with a stone to get the trigger as smooth as it was before.

I've heard about this before and always thought it was kind of uncool of S&W to just say "nope, doesn't happen". No no, I believe the guy.

Lotsa $$$ for a club. I would demand a fix or the goats would give them such a punishment! And that looks like a performance center gun, too. Lotsa $$$ for a club.
