-
- Would someone please describe the GLOCK trigger pull / action. Is it DA?
- DAO? Single action? Single and a half action? (i.e. not quite
- single, not quite double)
-
- I understand it has a light trigger pull? 5.5 lbs or so?
- Is it smooth? Does it break clean as glass? If not, how clean?
-
- Once you rack the slide to load a round, is the firing pin physically blocked
- from hitting the primer? Is the firing pin sort of half-cocked, the trigger
- pull finishes cocking then releases the firing pin?
-
- Is there an internal striker / hammer? or is the firing pin fired only using
- a spring.
-
- Is the firing stroke (i.e. trigger pull) the same from shot to shot (esp.
- 1st shot to 2nd) or does it change?
-
- Is there a good book that describes the glock's action?
-
- What is a summary of the different models?
-
- If people want to send e-mail, I'll try to post a summary.
-
- thanks
