Cocked and Unlocked?
Glock's Safe-Action is so different that it's kinda hard to understand. When loaded, a Glock isn't cocked and unlocked, it's at half cock with three different safeties in place. To over ride the safeties you must pull the trigger all the way to the rear. Here are the best explanations available www.glock.com/_safe_action_.htm and www.glockmeister.com/safeties.html

Tecolote,
"Cocked & Unlocked"?
I have read all the PR from Glock. Other arms also have internal safties to prevent the arm from firing if dropped.
I still consider a loaded Glock to be "Cocked & Unlocked" because it cannot be locked from firing by pressure on the trigger.
Other arms have an additional safety lever, or button or grip or squeeze or long DA trigger.

Internal safeties
George,
It's not PR from Glock, it's how the system works. Did you get a chance to study the graphics? You're suggesting that Glocks don't have internal safeties. That's not true at all.
A Glock with chamber loaded won't fire unless you pull the trigger all the way to the rear most position.

The Glock 26 is my favorite glock and the gun I ccw with 98% of the time. Get it and some night sights and you will be happy as a lark!
