Always Check For A Round In The Chamber

[GerColctor]

I think that the Europeans were concerned about the issue of notification to the weapons holder of chambered semi auto firearms long before we ever were.

I have a very early F&N (Browning) M-1900, in .32 that when the gun is cocked you can feel the rear sight and realize that the piece of metal in the center has dropped flat, giving the shooter a clear picture. When the trigger is pulled (fired) this piece then returns to where it sticks up slightly above the rear sight at about 90 degrees. There is an obvious difference to the feel and view.
