Hi sir,
That's exactly my concern. By design, the pump action shotgun is not drop safe. All the safety does is block the trigger. Not the sear and not the firing pin.
Is it unlikely it will go off if dropped? I think so.
Is it
possible?.. Yes. Unlikely, but possible.
At the end of the day, life is full of risks and dangers. We all choose which we accept and which not.
Me not preferring a loaded chamber on a shotgun is just a personal opinion, of course.
