Right. You made assumptions which I didn’t think reasonable. If you do think it’s possible, so what?

Put up or shut up. Prove that such a thing ever happened, if you can. Until then, I have heard your opinion, and I’m not interested in hearing it over and over.

Now that's funny! The firearm described was so well-worn and out-of-repair as to be unsafe to shoot, so you assume - what exactly? A "full-strength [hammer] spring." Your average gun owner won't replace springs until a firearm starts to malfunction, and those who do properly maintain their firearms install reduced power springs often enough, that it keeps companies like Wolff in business. But you assume a "full-strength [hammer] spring" - and apparently think that's a "reasonable" assumption. Oh, you betcha!

I specifically described the malfunction, right up front, as a "theoretical possibility." If you don't like my use of the phrase, tough - it's not my job to prove anything. As I noted above, you're welcome to your contrary opinions, even when they're based on obviously 'unreasonable' assumptions like "full-power springs" in worn-out guns...
