Fixing what isn’t broken.
One of the internet forums I’m a member of has a ongoing discussion about magazine disconnects and removing them from your gun. Basically a magazine disconnect prevents the gun from firing unless there is a magazine in the gun. Even if there is a bulet in the chamber it will not fire unless a magazine is inserted as well.
My Ruger P345 has one of these and I would never think of disconnecting it, I’ve stated my position that I believe it’s bad to remove a safety feature on any gun. It’s good to know that even if it’s loaded (it’s always loaded unless I’m cleaning it or am at the range)and someone trys to grab my gun away from me that I could drop the magazine and make the gun innoperable. My old Smith & Wesson 4006 had one of these as well, sometimes after cleaning I would forget and try to dryfire it without the magazine in. Yeah getting old sucks.
This is how I really feel about it, do I really want to give some bad guys lawyer a license to use a “so tell us why you removed a safety feature on your gun” argument against me if indeed I ever have to defend my right to defend myself in court. No these aren’t just ‘urban ledgends’ as some pro-gun activists claim. Lawyers will use and say whatever they need to if they are getting paid enough to do it. Like it or not with judges like the current Supreme Court nominee, we have to cover our asses because the courts are not our friend
