My new toy and I am new to these. Do these pistols have any sort of transfer bar safety ? I dont see anything . In other words if the chamber is loaded with a live round , hammer down, and the gun is dropped is there a danger of discharge ? Is the safe way to carry this cocked and locked or with a chamber empty ? This would not be my 1st choice for self defense, or 2nd or 3rd or...20th...for that matter, but it is amazing pistol at a bargin price (got mine from AIM Surplus, and it came with 2 magazines, a holster, and enough cosmoline for 50 guns) . Excellent sites, trigger, more accurate than i ever will be, zero malfunctions and hits point of aim at 7 to 10 yards with S&B hardball and Remington hollowpoint. On a scale of 1 to 10, 10 for fun, 0 for causes aggravation.

I have one and the safety moves far to freely to be considered for CCW use. I'm not sure if the hammer rebounds or not, but why carry it hammer down anyway,. The trigger is single action only.
