I understh heand how external hammer pistols (SA SA/DA and DAO) work.
I understand that a Glock is striker fired, but the striker is only partially cocked by the slide recoil and that the trigger finishes the cocking and release.
I also understand that pistols like the baby browning, Jennings and other pistols are striker fired with the slide fully cocking the striker and the only thing preventing the striker from going forward and setting the cartridge off is the sear which the trigger trips when pulled. All of these have a safety that prevents the trigger from being pulled.
What I don't understand are pistols listed as striker fired but unlike the baby browning have no safety to prevent the trigger from being accidentally pulled. Are these guns all like the Glock and the stikers are only partially cocked r what?
