Default Trigger failure

I have had trigger/safety issues on 2 rifles. A Sako Vixon when one of the roll pins which hold the trigger mechanism to the receiver partially worked its way out of its proper location.
Also a Winchester Ranger that if you depressed the trigger while the rifle was cocked with the safety on then released the safety the firing pin would fall...
All safeties / triggers are prone to failure due to the fact they are a mechanical device.

This is why one must always treat the rifle as loaded and use respect and proper muzzle control..AT ALL TIMES....
