That can be said of every manufacturer out there. There is not one that has not had some sort of a failure or problem. Anyone that trusts a safety is a fool. I was always taught that a safety is a mechanical device that will fail.
Good post. But I hope you don't plan to be an internet rock star by making such common sense, mundane, down to earth, truthful comments.
It takes a good bit of name calling, some exaggerated accusations borrowed from other forums that got limited mileage there, and at the least a scary avatar to be truly successful at this stuff.

Been called a troll, but I'm not a very good one.
I don't try hard enough.
I don't have a clue what to use as an avatar, a picture of myself wouldn't do it. (not scary enough)
