The entire excuse is foolish. "Why did your firearm negligently discharge?"
I was trying to turn on the flashlight
I dropped it
(My favorite) I was cleaning it and it went off.
Just excuses trying to get out of the fact that you are responsible every time your firearm discharges while in your control. Generally trying to avoid admitting "I was playing with it"

The officers will tell you that.winters wrote:I think its funny how they blame it not having an external safety as an issue. Lots of police carry glocks and the whole safety on the trigger thing is a bunch of bull. I don't see a lot of accidental firings with glocks; but they could have heavier trigger pulls.
Ofcourse people has some hair brained idea police are trained to use firearms better then anyone else. Most officers qualify once a year and never fire their gun any other time.
