1914 Erfurt Police

Aaron · 02-04-2003, 07:13 AM

I am embarassed to admit I am hazy in my knowledge of sear safety and mag safety mechanisms. My understanding is that a sear safety guards against firing when the cannon is removed from the frame. I am also under the impression that a mag safety guards agains firing when the magazine is removed. My Erfurt obviously has a sear safety. It also will not fire with a magazine removed. Does this not mean it also has a mag safety? If so, is it supposed to be visible on external examination? Again, this is not my field of expertise, so please enlighten me.
