Uzkon AS 46 firing out of battery

I was considering one of these and I ran across this video.

The hammer will drop, but will the firing pin protrude? I can do the same thing on my SAP-6, but a dummy round with tape on the base doesn't show any firing pin impact.

It still sucks, but its the difference between a serious safety issue and just an annoying design.

Hammer is almost certainly profiled to hit the bolt and be prevented from hitting the firing pin when held out of battery.

Pay for a cheap gun and get a cheap design. Likely quite safe still.
