Interesting, I personally have never dropped mine, so I wouldn't know
if it would or not.
But I have seen some in the Gun Range where I Shoot that have been
blown apart from mis-fires, I've also read articles where weapons have
fired just from being dropped, which again, make me believe that it has
to do with rare-flawed manufacturing, and mis-maintenance of the
weapon in question.
