SAFETY DEVICES GLOCK HANDGUN
The weapon has no externally located safety devices which need to be actuated separately. All the
safety or safety release devices function automatically.
1. TRIGGER SAFETY
This is incorporated into the trigger (26) in the form of a lever, and in the untouched state blocks the
trigger from being moved backwards. If the weapon is allowed to drop, or if the trigger is subject to
an off centre, lateral pressure, it is still impossible for a shot to be fired. This safety can only be
released by the trigger being pulled by the trigger finger. This situation offers maximum possible
firing readiness combined with maximum safety for the user.
2. FIRING PIN SAFETY
In the secured position a spring-loaded pin (9) projects into the firing pin cut-out, and blocks it. This
safety is only released when the trigger is pulled back.
3. SAFETY FUNCTION OF THE TRIGGER MECHANISM HOUSING
The firing pin (5) pushes the trigger bar onto the safety ramp under the influence of the firing pin
spring (7). There is no possibility in this position of the firing pin being released
