Trigger Mike Posted February 22, 2018 Posted February 22, 2018 Are there any internal safeties on a newly made Colt Mustang Pocketlite other than the external safety? If the external safety gets knocked out of place will the pistol be subject to random firing?
Henry T Harrison Posted February 23, 2018 Posted February 23, 2018 The first time I found my Mustang with the safety disengaged in my pocket holster was the last time I carried it

If the external safety gets knocked out of place will the pistol be subject to random firing? I carry one in a holster and I don't know how the safety would get knocked off! I suppose it could happen but then there's always the "finger off the trigger" safety!
Trigger Mike Posted February 23, 2018 Author Posted February 23, 2018 Henry, did your safety come off accidently then? Do you know how?
Capt. James H. Callahan Posted February 23, 2018 Posted February 23, 2018 I have a regular SS Mustang, carried it for quite a few years behind my checkbook in my hip pocket in hot weather. Far as I know the safety NEVER disengaged. More or less a teeny 1911. JHC
Henry T Harrison Posted February 23, 2018 Posted February 23, 2018 The best I could figure was a soft holster and tight jeans caused the safety to rub off after who knows how long in the holster. I now carry an LCP and feel a whole lot more comfortable
Chili Ron Posted February 23, 2018 Posted February 23, 2018 Howdy, How is that more dangerous than an LCP with NO such safety? Best CR

JHC I have a Govt Model 380. I always have carried all my handguns in a high quality holster so I haven’t had any issues with safeties becoming disengaged. As far as random firing, guns don’t fire randomly unless there’s something wrong with them or the operator makes an error.
Trigger Mike Posted February 24, 2018 Author Posted February 24, 2018 My LCP sometimes jams, so being more used to the 1911 style anyway pondering using the Colt Pocketlite.
