Mistake 1: Gun in purse.
Mistake 2: Trigger probably not covered.
Probably had some object in the purse press up against the trigger on impact.
That gun has an awkward safety, probably wasn't on.

Whoops:
"St. Petersburg police spokesman Mike Puetz said Beck, who does not have a permit to carry a concealed weapon, was given the gun by her dad a year ago and had forgotten it was in her bag."
I'd make a joke about how one can carry a weapon in their handbag for a year and not find it, but my wife might read this post.

It was the caffeine!
Ban Starbucks! and friends... and talking...Mistake 3: carrying a junk gun and drinking a coffee at starbucks. If you can afford to go to starbucks you shouldn't be carrying a piece of shit.

IMO pistols and revolvers carried in purses or fanny packs are simply accidents waiting to happen. They should only be carried strapped on tight and held close to the body. Yes, that can be a little inconvenient at times but that is the only way they will always be under your direct and positive control. You would be amazed at how many times guns in purses and fanny packs have become accidentally lost or misplaced to the great embarrassment of the owner and at great risk to the general public. The same goes for guns kept under the driver side front seats of cars. It's just not worth the risk.

The Titan is a $100 piece of shit copy of a beretta.
It is a single action gun with a hammer safety notch and no firing pin block. If you have a round in the chamber and aren't smart enough to set the hammer on the safety notch, then the gun can go off if bumped in the hammer.
Can't fix stupid.

Off body carry is stupid, I agree. Mainly because of the chance that your gun will be taken from you. (why would you put your gun in the item that thieves are most likely to take?)
But it can be done safely if the gun is in a decent holster while inside the purse. It needs to have some type of retention. Even a clip in Kydex holster that completely encloses the trigger and trigger guard is fine. In the case of that crap gun, she should have carried with an empty chamber. Then holsterless carry is fine.

I was suggesting you do some grip training so you don't drop your gun 100's of times. I couldn't figure out why you'd drop your gun that many times. It was a thinly veiled attempt at humor.
