Glock 23 


I get questions from students regarding the operation of a Glock pistol.  As you probably know Glocks are "striker fired" semi automatic pistols.  What does that mean?  Visually I have used cutaway posters to convey the information.  However, today I was perusing the internet and came across a website named Genitron, a self described as THE HANDGUN INFORMATION RESOURCE.  They have breakdown of popular handguns and their operation. Lots of great information.

What caught my eye was the interactive animation of the operation of a Glock. More particularly one of my favorites, the Glock 23.  So, what is a striker fired weapon?  Check out this link....go ahead, I'll wait...

Next question?
