Can a Gun Discharge without Pulling the Trigger?

Think he/she knows of what she/he writes.

You might be wondering about the issue of negligent discharge because of what you may have seen in movies or on TV shows. The truth is back in the “Old West,” it was very possible to make a gun negligently discharge by simply dropping or jostling it.

However, today, this is much less likely to happen, thanks to a safety feature known as a firing pin block. As the name implies, this device isolates the firing pin and prevents it from directly hitting the primer without pulling the trigger.
