    I just thought of a possible answer for myself, as to why so many guns are like that.

    The striker and firing pin mechanisms are in the bolt or slide. If the manual safety involves a firing-pin block, then something is going to have come up out of the receiver and engage something in the bolt/slide. That will prevent the bolt/slide from moving.

    Not a problem for the Beretta 92, with its slide-mounted safety.
