Any gun that requires you to actually pull the trigger on a live round to engage the safety is the height of stupid careless Victorian engineering.
OK
I have been in aviation for thirty five years and and I can absolutely promise you that you cannot design a machine to do your thinking for you.
That's absolutely true BUT would you consider a retractable undercarriage that required the pilot to drag the belly of the aircraft on the tarmac briefly to lower good design? With such a system you'd have to KINDA land to put the gear down.
Just like you kinda have to shoot an old Winchester or marlin to engauge the saftey. All the elements are there, trigger pulled, sear disengaged, firing pin free and a live round right in front of it all.
