2. TECHNICAL INFORMATION

2.1. Nomenclature

In conventional gun terminology, the position and movement of pistol parts are

described as they occur with the pistol horizontal and in normal ﬁring position: the

muzzle is forward or front, the pistol grip is rearward or rear, the trigger is downward

or underneath, the sights are upward or on top.

The two above illustrations, like most of the illustrations of this owner’s manual, show

the pistol with the curved backstrap. If desired, the ergonomics of the pistol grip can

be modiﬁed by replacing the backstrap. (For more information, refer to Section 9.1.)
