They have a very well done solution implemented on their double action revolvers, the basic designs of which originate in the late 19th century. My Python uses a transfer bar, is entirely safe with six rounds, and has the best action of any revolver I own. So they know how to do it. I'm afraid, however, the old SAA is so steeped in tradition that implementing such a change would be roundly rejected. As far as liability, I think with a 150 years long history and body of knowledge associated with it, that might be a tough fight in which to beat them. I do believe, however, that there are several states in which they cannot be sold because they fail their drop tests and whatnot.
