If all the safeties work it doesn't go bang until you depress the grip safety and the trigger. But no mechanical device can be counted on to work right 100% of the time.

Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."

I have a younger brother who is a state trooper. His first year out of the academy, he was full of himself (a side effect of any police academy I would guess) and carried a 1911 in a home made rig at the small of his back. He never set the thumb safety. Getting into his personal car one afternoon, the pistol discharged and left a severe burn down the crack of his ass, and a hole in the seat and floor of his new Mustang. He's carried a .38 in his pocket since then (about 21 years now).

Did his taint survive??  Cuz finding a replacement taint is NOT easy.   Donors are difficult to find.

He had kids after that, but was on a liquid diet for the better part of a month.

Small of the back is the worst place to carry, period.
