RE: the S&W 'lock'

I took a couple of my former post lock guns apart and determined I could make a pin that I could place in the spring that puts pressure on the lock flag keeping it in fire mode. That would physically and permanently lock the lock in fire mode till the pin is removed. But, my problem with that lock is it is one of the most ungraceful monstrosities on one of the most graceful sixguns ever and it also screams of a modern dumbed down society that is too stupid to recognize guns are supposed to be dangerous and keeping it out of the wrong hands is just a matter of personal responsibility that is sorely absent in society today. ...delicately stepping off my soapbox now:/
