salesman didn’t know either.

It’s not deliberate malice, it’s simple ignorance that can kill someone.

Did the gun store that sold that gun make a point to educate the owner on the danger?

I have made a point when I sold a used one at a pawn and gun I worked at to educate the buyer of the potential danger.

I know at least two people down here who own them, and didn’t know about the ‘notch’, until I educated them.

I fear the majority of owners out there are like those folks… 🙁

True. The hammer has to be “parked” between rounds while carrying it, something I’m sure she doesn’t know and was probably never told.

Well…

I’ve owned two over the years, and am EDCing one right now in my neck holster.

They absolutely can discharge without cocking the gun if they are dropped with the hammer resting on the rim of a live round, or if the hammer gets briskly ‘whacked’. NAA has a set of ‘notches’ in between each cylinder to rest the hammer to make the gun drop-safe, but it takes a bit of practice to do properly, and she admits she has little to no practice time with the gun.

The NAA is an amazing ‘piece of kit’, as the Brits are wont to say, without that training, you get a result as she found out.

Sucks to be her, at least no one was wounded or killed, hopefully others may learn from her ‘Cock-Up’, as other Brits are ‘wont to say’… 😉
