There are many different “best” mechanical safety systems used on pistols but as we all know they still rely on the thought processes of the user to qualify for inclusion on a best list. Perhaps a list of mechanical safety systems on pistols that, even when the user does everything right, would not qualify for a best list may be interesting and useful. I nominate the system used on the Walther PPK as not qualifying for a best list. It does work, but is less than optimal, the same design was not used on Walther’s next successful pistol design (P-38), and has not found favor with pistol designers. Anyone have other nominations?
