Safety features
Besides a visible hammer which allows you to determine if the pistol
is cocked or not, the pistol has no external safeties. With a cartridge
in the chamber, this pistol is always ready to fire.
Please note that the two decocking levers do not act as a “safety” that
blocks the firing mechanism of the pistol. The decocking levers have
only been provided to set the pistol, if necessary, into the safer double-
action condition.
The pistol has been provided with internal mechanical “safety” devices
in order to prevent an accidental discharge if the pistol is dropped or
receives a severe blow on the muzzle.
These safety features ensure that the pistol can be carried safely and
that it still offers a rapid firing readiness without having to actuate a
manual “safety” lock.
PLEASE NOTE THAT FAILURE OF A “SAFETY” DEVICE CAN
OCCUR WHEN THE PISTOL IS SUBJECTED TO EXTREME FORCES
OR CONDITIONS NORMALLY NOT ENCOUNTERED IN A NORMAL
SPORTING, LAW ENFORCEMENT OR MILITARY ENVIRONMENT.
