Glock Carry Condition?

[Adam Helmer]

gregarat,

I was the Firearms Coordinator (Instructor) for all 100 Postal Inspectors in New England for 10 years before I retired in 1996. We got the Glock 17 and 19s in 1989 and our SOP was to carry with the mag loaded and one "up the spout." As others pointed out, the Glock has NO safety catch or decocking lever or any of that nonsense. The Glock fires when the trigger is pulled just like any DA revolver. We had no ADs with the Glock during my tenure as Coordinator.

I bought my Glock 19 and still carry CCW with "one up the spout." The Glock is like the cap guns and water pistols we used as kids, if you want it to go bang, pull the trigger. Hope this helps.
