    how the fuck does anyone have a magazine-fed gun and not know that removing the magazine doesn’t unload the chamber

    that’s fucking scary

    that said, seems like a no-brainer to mandate this magazine disconnect mechanism

      A child who finds a firearm in an unlocked safe that the parent thought was locked may not know. Or many other scenarios.

        Yeah definitely true and a good reason for the mechanism to exist.

        Just, wow, some of the anecdotes in the article.
