We've been through this before, and it appears there is still some mystery, on your part anyway.
They are not "cocked" when loaded. They have a partial load on the striker, but they are not "cocked".
And even then, there are still three safeties in between, that wont allow the gun to fire, unless the trigger is fully pulled. Pulling the trigger, to what some call "the wall", is the final cocking of the gun. Beyond that, it fires. Very much, by feel anyway, like a two-stage trigger on something like an M1.
The way you know the Glock is ready, is the trigger is "forward and set". You can see and feel that. You also have a visual and tactile indicator its actually loaded, with the extractor.
You know, for all this AMAZING "glock safety" you would think people WOULDN'T be shooting themselves, in the balls, on a regular basis.
Have all the guys, that police chief, who shot himself on camera, at the gun store, did HE know about how "safe" glocks are?
How about Mr. "I'm the only person in this room, who's qualified to carry a glock 40 " was HE aware of all those "glock safeties" ?
Why are you telling ME this? You know, somebody should have told those other guys, because they surely missed the boat. Maybe if you had been there, yourself, to tell THEM how "safe" glocks are, they wouldn't still be picking pieces of themselves out of the floor...
... and I have to say, for a gun that's NOT cocked, they sure go off in people's pants on a regular basis, as if they ARE cocked. Do regular firearms physics stop, at Gaston Glock's front door?
I'll say it again, calling five gallons of grease, smeared on a slippery precipice, a "safety rail"
doesn't make it a safety rail.
You should think long, and hard, about the fact that you are advocating noobs getting glocks, which empiric evidence shows don't have the best safety record,
in the hands of trained professionals, let alone some poor guy, who just bought his first gun, may or may not ever get a holster, and hell, these guys can't pony up the dough for NRA membership(or GOA or SAF, doesn't matter), so pigs are gonna fly, before they get professional firearms safety training. And all you guys are all out there parroting "get a glock! get a glock!"
I cringe, it's sort of like watching somebody fall, and bust open their kneecap. Don't you ever wonder how many noobs have bought, and ND'ed a glock, based on your advice?
