Preventing conscripted soldiers from killing themselves: Suicide Prevention Trigger Guard in Turkish Armed Forces
Editors Note- It is important to stress that these ‘Suicide Prevention Trigger Guards’ were intended to be used by units that were mainly composed of Turkish conscripts, and not the ‘Operating Forces’ so to say. That is, the units using these rifles aren’t the same infantry units that are operating in PKK-areas or currently in NE Syria and Idlib. The intent was to prevent suicides among those serving their required term of enlistment in these more rear-echelon garrison units.
