No. The reason that they aren't considered double action is stated above. The patented Glock SafeAction is what it is. One's perception of it does not change the inherent difference of its funtion as compared to all other actions.

In any case, one cannot shoot one's self without pointing the weapon at one's body, or a suface that can cause a ricochet. Lots of people "think" that a person can, but in this case(as in most), thinking doesn't make it so. All firearms have only one safety, the person operating them at the time.

A thousand gun control laws would not have prevented this massacre. What am I doing?"
