You are seriously lecturing about how a person stores a firearm IN THEIR SAFE? Seriously. Give it a rest. If a person stores an unloaded firearm with the hammer dropped and on fire, it is NOT A BIT less than an unloaded firearm stored with the hammer cocked and the safety on. And you damned well know that. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

I don't leave my firearm stored and cocked...and I haven't figured out how to drop the hammer on my AR and then engage the safety. Can you explain it to me, Safety Nazi? You don't need to drop the hammer. That's not how springs work. Read a science book. Your weapon should be on safe, unless you intend to fire. Do you intend to fire your weapon in your safe? I didn't think so. Put the selector on safe. You're welcome. You are seriously lecturing about how a person stores a firearm IN THEIR SAFE? Seriously. Give it a rest.

Grown men take better to teaching on an adult level or somebody making a recommendation. While I agree with your basic principle, you went about this PSA in a completely controlling fashion, as if you have control on this site or over others. You would have done way better to attempt pissing up a fire hose than to publish something that will only cause butt hurt and push back. You have essentially done more harm than good by simply not knowing your audience and being a complete control freak. A do over might help you tremendously.
Better luck next time, and maybe use my advice here in the fashion you have told others to heed yours. |

OP has no understanding of how AR internals work.
And he's gay. |

So, you store your 1911 cocked & locked? In the safe? Talk about safety issues; stored weapons should be chamber empty, no mag inserted. |

It's Sunday morning here, and I wanted to make sure all my friends on Arfcom were being safe. Additionally, it turns out people don't understand how springs work. When I get off of work, I'm going to have to kick some spring science class in this thread. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Can't put it on safe if the gun hasn't had its charging handle pulled. It's nothing to really get upset about. That just tells me that they haven't cleared their weapon. Safety violation. You should visually and physically inspect the chamber to ensure the weapon is not loaded. Check clear. Pull trigger. Store.

OP would shit his pants...most of my O/U's have the safety disconnected.

Mines always on "Safe"... Loaded or unloaded!
Only gets flicked to "Fire" when I function check, Dry Fire, or actually shooting. It's a good habit. Also, no firearm in my apartment is loaded with one in the chamber... Full mag inserted? You bet! But no loaded chambers... If someone kicks my door in, or shatters my window, I'll have time to rack a round in whatever firearm within arms reach! |

[OP troll]I don't want my springs taking a set, so I store them hammer down. [/OP troll]
I'll just sit here while your eyes dry out. ETA: I had some nazi like you take issue with my rifle on a cold highpower match line before we even hung targets. He picked it up and started racking the charging handle trying to lock it open (no mag). The rifle was safer sitting still, nevermind you do NOT pick up another competitors gun. |

The only drills I do are putting the weapon on safe from various firing positions.
Due to this, I've never even come close to putting myself in the kind of jeopardy described by the OP. |

What about patrol rifles in car racks?! On fire, hammer down, mag inserted... MIND BLOWNNNNNNN
seriously... many General Orders say so |

HOLY SHIT!!!
I just realized while sitting here typing that my shitty AK is on a chair, pointed right at me... Wait, ok, Thank GOD, the magazine is out and the safety is on... Of course, only a commie weapon would allow you to put the safety on with the hammer down. Because, yes, the hammer is down. Unload, show clear, hammer down |

I have ARs that aside from function checking the safety during the build, have never been put on safe.
I also carry every day, chambered round, no safety at all. Does that keep you up at night OP? |

I guess the DOE needs to rewrite their weapons storage procedure since we down loaded, cleared the chamber and dropped the hammer on an empty chamber while in the clearing barrel. We then handed the weapon to the armorer not on safe.

Why is the hammer down? You should pull the bolt to the rear with the weapon on safe to ensure it is not loaded. People who store their ARs hammer down, don't understand how springs work. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

But what if the mag is empty or there is no round chambered? On safe. What if the hammer is down? Why is the hammer down? You should pull the bolt to the rear with the weapon on safe to ensure it is not loaded. People who store their ARs hammer down, don't understand how springs work. Or they are adults and can store their rifle however they please since anyone picking it up should check to see if it is loaded before pulling the trigger anyway |
