  • Safe action trigger are only action and cosmetics of gun. It is actually not a particle safety. IF some human or an object tried to pull the trigger it will go bang this middle trigger will also be pressed either way, triggers are never pulled or goes off by inertia drops or any magics.

    Only practical safety is the external manual safety like in Beretta.

  • @meindenim1 no matter how you cut it, if the side of the trigger is pulled the gun will not shoot, the center piece must be pulled as well, there is an internal drop safety as well so it wont go off if dropped and I demo this in a video dropping it on concrete

  • Hey after you pull the first I think 5.5 pound trigger, does it become single action?

  • @mathnerdm no the inner trigger is just a safety to prevent the whole trigger from going into the frame and releasing the firing pin...

  • @cutlerylover carrying in condition 3 is safe but you lose valuable time when having to draw and rack the slide all under stress. The bad guy coming at you is more than likely condition 1. major dis advantage for the good guy

  • @thefamcnaj compared to MOST peoepl not having a gun I woudl say I havce an advantage...and since I will most likely never need to use the gun Ill carry it safer and take my chances if the time arrises, but I do train to draw rack entent squeeze so its not foreign to me...

  • @420hih thats why you just comment and I make videos, people dont want to hear that they want details, your version of the video wont make anyone excited or walk away satisfied...

  • So as long as I don't pull the trigger, the gun won't go off.... Brilliant!

  • I was thinking about buying a glock 21 but not any more. I know glock makes quality guns but the lack of a safety is just plain stupid. All it take is that one time and you ruin a life. No thanks.

  • To all those who say that this safety system isn't safe enough, but that other safties are more dependable, they are dead wrong. The ONLY safety that can be depended on and trusted is the Human Brain.

    There is no mechanical device that can make any gun safe. On the other hand there is no gun that can "go off" all by itself. The key factor is where the gun is pointed when it DOES go off.

    A Brain that is fully engaged will never allow a gun to be pointed at anything that it can destroy.

  • you made a 1 minute video last 5. great work

  • great explanation - better than the Glock website, truthfully. thanks!

  • @meindenim1 Completely agree. I know Glock people are always going to be Glock people, but my PX Storm and its safety give me complete peace of mind in comparison.

  • @420hih Me aint get what the fuck about trigger safety >:(

  • I trust the Austrians to be safe... Except for Hitler, oh jeez.

  • Thanks for explaning that so well, I knew about this but did not know how it worked, Thanks great job.
