A friend I have out of town has this pistol. I will tried to get him to identify what he purchased but best I can get from him is a picture. He says the saftey engages after each shot. I'm trying to figure out what it is and if there is a way to alter this. Thanks.

It's appears to be a 1911 of some make. Most likely he is bumping the safety with his thumb/hand when he is shooting. 1911 safeties move up to lock and have to be physically moved as far as I know. He may need to change his grip and shoot thumbs pointing forward.
Did you ask it what it identifies as, might be a glock
This. If the 1911 has a large ambi safety lever he may be engaging it that way also.
I vote Taurus but it is a 1911. He is engaging the safety with his grip. He will need to adjust it for a 1911 with ambi safetys.
Or if it doesn't have an ambi, but he is shooting it left handed.
Also, are you sure he isn't referring to the grip safety?
IMPOSSIBLE. If it were a Glock this thread would not exist because it would always perform above and beyond expectation.
Also a possibility. In the end, I'd say the shooter's grip is causing the issue.
I saw him the other day but he didn't have it on him. I've never heard of a gun engaging a safety the way he describes it. I didn't consider that he may be accidently engaging the saftey.
I'll have to see if I can get more info from him. Thanks
