Re: PA state trooper disassenbled my gun during traffic stop
My Steyr has the same type of trigger safety as the Glocks. I know there are a lot fewer of them, but I haven't heard any complaints about it.

Re: PA state trooper disassenbled my gun during traffic stop
A 2011 report by the NYPD (http://www.nyc.gov/html/nypd/downloa...eport_2011.pdf , page 47) indicates that 71% of NDs between 2007-2011 while loading/unloading involved Glocks, and this was attributed to having to pull the trigger to disassemble the gun. I think a good way to describe the situation is that the Glock design has a lower safety margin than other systems. Someone blindly following their clearing ritual is likely to overlook a round in the chamber if they allow themselves to expect the chamber to always be empty.
I should add that the NYPD’s statistics do not mean that Glock owners are 71% more likely to have a ND than other gun owners. It’s not accurate to generalize from the NYPD data like that.Last edited by azalin; March 16th, 2018 at 03:11 PM.

Re: PA state trooper disassenbled my gun during traffic stop
speaking of NDs, I was in the Navy hospital in Yokosuka, Japan. The Hospital was just up the street from the Marine run Crossbar Hotel. At least once a day we could hear someone put a round in the safety tube. At that time they had the venerable 1911.
