Sort of like the S&W 'lock', except...
...not as ugly, but a damnedable abomination still.
The firing pin safety in the Series 80 Colt is another solution in search of a problem. They are simply more clockwork that may go wrong at some juncture.
See if you can determine how many inopportune discharges the firing pin safety may have prevented.
I've carried too many Colts cocked and locked over too many miles to be bothered by professional nannies who just don't get it. None for me, thanks.
