The Glock pistol is not even cocked until the trigger is pulled. In fact, all three safeties are deactivated when the trigger is pulled. That is how the Glock pistol is designed. Guns should fire when the trigger is pulled, that's the whole idea isn't it.

Kinda makes you wonder if the ammo makers found a way for the paper shooters to be separated from their money faster. Next we will be asking the bad guys " Sir which bullet do you prefer to be shot with ". Cabin fever is really bad this winter it seems.:banghead:

This is a joke right, you're kidding right. You can't figure this out on your own! A word of advice, take it to a gun smith with the right tools to do the job right and properly. Now you don't change a tire on your car while it is going do you? There was a guy in the back of the room that said...

9 mm Facts FACT The United States Military and military organizations around the world have been killing human beings with 9 mm bullets for several years now. I seriously doubt the platform is going away anytime soon so your investments are secure. :)

I think the question is why this foolish argument is going on anyway and why is it even a point of contention for this boards members. There seems to be a great deal of mental masturbation and chest pounding going on that is totally irrelevant to firearms. So this is the High Road:barf:

I read the original post and it does not rule out FMJ. It is just a rhetorical question about bullet weight. If you don't want any participation from other members then why put it on a public forum. Not every person thinks alike or shares the same values and ideals. From what I gathered from...

That has also happened with just about every gun made. Sloppy re-holstering is the number one cause of AD. As the great Kalashnikov once said "Is Gun, Not Safe " Now you don't want to even get into 1911 series 70 mishaps from dropping. That's why there is a 1991 Series 80!

They were used in war and I don't recall hollow pointed rifle ammunition either. So what is your point. Mine is that there is not a handgun made capable of producing hydrostatic shock ( bleeding in the brain from body trauma ) . Pistols only poke holes. Now at 3,500 feet a second from an AR 15...

Yup, you sure do have a tumble problem. First change the ammo, try some decent stuff like S&B and if it goes one, find a good gunsmith.

I would be willing to bet that any shooting situation under any circumstances regarding injury or death is going to require a legal determination in every state of this union. This also regardless of the principles involved being either civilian or professional. It is a legal requirement. I...

One hell of a 9mm pocket rocket launcher. Plus you just can't beat the price or the service. Second to none. Got 5 of them in the family and everyone is very pleased with their performance. This is not a range toy, it is a true self protection firearm.

The Glock pistol is not even cocked to fire until the trigger is pulled, just like a revolver. Kahr, Kel Tec are the same type of operation unlike the XD and Bryco and S&W that have fully tensioned striker at all times. An understanding of pistol design should be researched before broad brush...

When the largest police department in the world, the NYPD, moves away from 9 mm to .40 cal S&W I will be impressed.

Remember the Black Talon controversy. If you use your gun even, in your home, you are going before a grand jury and there is just no escaping that. I don't know about you but, I most certainly want a grand jury of my peers determining my fate and not just the local PD or a one man judge. I also...

Actually a lot of the style of the 1911 and 1911a1 was not from Browning. It was done during the tooling set up process at the Colt Manufacturing Facility in Paterson New Jersey and on display at the museum located there. In actual history the 9 mm round was invented prior to the .45 ACP which...

I have a pregnant question. Is it going to make any difference to a grand jury what you are shooting in the unlikely event you are forced to use your gun. My thinking is that if you are using the same ammunition as our military 124 NATO FMJ that kinds precludes the super killer bullet issues and...

Thank you for the correction. I hit the wrong key. 27 parts is correct.:D

The Makarov PM is a far better pistol. Only 37 parts and built like a tank! I don't think that there has ever been a pistol more battle tested than the Mak. It has taken more of a beating than the Glock even and just refuses to give up

I do believe our military threw away the 1911 almost 25 years ago. I know they started to talk about it's battle failures during Vietnam in 1970 and if memory serves me correctly the M9 Beretta became Standard Military Side Arm around 1988 just before Desert Shield. Gen. Norman Schwarzkopf...

Then what about revolvers,,,,scratching my head for an answer. Where are the safeties on them?
