GUN PORN

While discussing a proper grip, the grip safety device should be mentioned, which rule of operation is commonly well known.
This safety has equally the same number of opponents as the fans – in my neighbourhood there are mainly persons who have
unfavourable attitude, but I have learned how to cooperate with them.
A pistol grip is profiled so that a hand naturally inserts under the bolt which is higher than in the Glock. In contrast to the Austrian
pistol a Croatian gun has a factory-made "beaver tail" frame what generally disables cutting your hand or a glove with moving
slide. I admit that a pistol has to be caught by the full hand because a safety switch, even in comparison to the M1911A1, is micro-
sized – when gun is held by hand placed too low, there will be no bang. During shooting from the XDM I had not any situation of
this kind, but I can imagine that it could happen, especially under the stress conditions or when you have to draw a gun from the
IWB holster.
However, as I have already mentioned, a pistol grip is naturally profiled is profiled so hand slides under the highest point of the
safety in relation to the slide, so looking at the advantages of this safety devices, I would like not to demonise this problem.
As I have mentioned before, this additional safety against an accidental discharge has its fans, so I should drop a few words to
describe a situation in which a safety switch in grip can save us.
