Manual

– With the slide removed, it is not permitted to tension and spring the firing pin (5) forward,
since this could damage the firing pin safety.
– The steel insert located in the cover platte (15) to the slide must not be removed.
4. No liability whatever can be accepted if inexpertly manufactured or inexpertly filled ammunition
is used.
All liability whatever is excluded in the event of these instructions not being observed.
CHECK OF SAFETY DEVICES
The following safety checks are to be carried out at regular intervals, e.g. before each use or
when cleaning the weapon after use:
a) Function testing the trigger safety:
– Remove the magazine from your pistol and reassure that there is no cartridge in the barrel.
Then the trigger may be pulled back.
– Bring back the trigger in its most forward position by cycling the slide. The trigger safety (lever
integrated in trigger) should then be properly engaged.
– When lateral pressure is applied on the trigger the safety should keep engaged, blocking the
trigger movement.
– Failure of the trigger safety to properly engage or block indicates that it is defective.
Do not reload or use your weapon again and contact GLOCK Ges.m.b.H. or an
authorised GLOCK armorer immediately.
b) Function testing the firing pin safety:
– Dismantle the weapon into its main components as described previously and remove the
recoil spring/recoil spring tube and barrel from the slide.
– Hold the slide in a muzzle down position and depress the firing pin safety. The tip of the firing
pin should move forward and be visible protruding from the firing pin hole.
– Keep the firing pin safety depressed and shake the slide. The firing pin should be distinctly
heard moving freely.
– Draw back manually the firing pin about 0.2 in.
– Hold the slide in a horizontal position and push forward the firing pin toward the muzzle, firing
pin safety being engaged. The firing pin should not protrude from the firing pin hole. If it
does, the firing pin and the firing pin safety should be replaced.
