Glock owners can also appreciate the cop with the M1911. He forgot to apply the safety after an earlier confrontation. Of course, that grip safety just makes it safer, right?
Goes to the john, weapon cocked and unlocked. Finger nowhere near the trigger, he places it on the hook, unintentionally depressing the grip safety. Bumps weapon, weapon bounces up and down against the hook, emptying the entire mag into the ceiling in less than a second.
We won't speak of DA revolvers with the hammer left cocked (usually a holdever from bad weapons-handling learned from bad movies and TV shows).
A basic law of Nature says if you put anything inside the trigger guard, the weapon will prove itself to be loaded, and will discharge.

Amen.
