e. Child safety. Within 12 months of execution of the Agreement,
each firearm shall be designed so that it cannot be readily
operated by a child under the age of 6. Such mechanisms
include: making the trigger pull resistance at least ten pounds in
the double action mode; or designing the firing mechanism so
that an average five year old’s hands would be too small to
operate the gun; or requiring multiple, sequenced actions in order
to fire the gun.
Children are curious and will attempt nearly anything in order to solve a puzzle.
If the new "safer" guns have 10 pound triggers to prevent a child from pulling the trigger, then children will attempt to pull the trigger in non conventional ways.
Wrap both thumbs though the guard and your grip strength is increased greatly.
One problem, the muzzle is now pointed at your head...
