Sear Safety question and classification?

The fact that there are accidental discharges with the Luger proves that no gun is idiot proof.

First, the Luger (at least from 1906 onward) has a very visible and tactile loaded chamber indicator. How someone can even think of trying to disassemble one without clearing the chamber is beyond me.

Second, it has a very effective safety that blocks the sear bar.

Third, in as issue condition it has a really heavy trigger with a long pull.

Fourth, although only valid for those with grip safety. The safety automatically engages whenever the pistol is not firmly gripped blocking the sear bar movement.
