About as viable as burst fire with the same potential failure point. In my experience you can cause a SS to fail to reset if you pull the trigger with an excessive amount of force, I've heard similar things happen with the old A2s as well. Granted, when I say excessive I mean white knuckling that trigger like it owes you money. That said, if it can occasionally happen to me on a controlled one way range I can see it happening often on a much more chaotic two way range where adrenaline is gonna kick in and you're bound to manipulate things with way more strength than you usually use. However, I've only experienced failures when straight magdumping, when firing in any kind of burst, even long 8 or 10 shot strings, there's no issues. Realistically anyone with any degree of trigger discipline isn't going to just straight FA dump mags outside of knife fighting distance, so ultimately I find it not impossible but very unlikely for a SS to fail in serious use. This all ignores the rotating motion SSes make when firing, which- while I've never encountered any issues with- appears to be an ingress point for dirt and a potential malfunction point if it gets gummed up
