hello community,
as an investigative journalist in research of a book script I would need some advice on the internals of beretta 92fs.
The basic situation is:
weapon has been fired (6 rounds)
now chamber loaded again
8 rounds remain in magazine
weapon is ready to fire
hammer is fully-cocked
Question:
What (EXCEPT OF decocking by thumb) could cause the hammer to fall to half-cocked notch?
Can it happen if the weapon falls to ground? If yes - how can one describe that mechanically and would something internal get broken (sear, trigger bar)?
Would the weapon still be functionable afterwards?
I tried to get answers to these questions in some boards now here and there but there were no consistent answers.
Thanks for your answers. Looking forward to them.
