Summary
Dr. Janette Nesheiwat, Trump’s nominee for US surgeon general, was involved in a 1990 gun accident at age 13 that killed her father.
A handgun fell from a tackle box she knocked over, discharging and fatally wounding him.
Nesheiwat cites the tragedy as her inspiration to become a physician but omits specifics of the incident in her upcoming memoir.
If confirmed, she would replace Dr. Vivek Murthy, who declared gun violence a public health crisis.
The nomination highlights GOP opposition to addressing gun violence through public health policy.
Not disbelieving or discrediting but any specific models? I have time to spare sooooo I need a new sinkhole
The P320 is the most recent one that’s had this issue. Analysis seems to suggest it’s a combination of a bad design and worse manufacturing. In particular the manufacturing quality of the sear has been pointed to as a possible source of issues. Since it looks like a manufacturing defect is a significant contributor many of them may be perfectly fine but it’s hard to tell without doing a thorough teardown and inspection by someone trained to know exactly what they’re looking for.
