Hi all! New to the forum and have a question. I have a P94, with the safety/decocker (Not a "DC" model like my last one). Anyway, here's what is going on...
When I have the safety "on" (white dot showing) and no mag in (so as not to activate the slide stop) if I rack the slide here's what happens...
On the rearward travel, the hammer goes back (of course), then when I return the slide, in about a nano second the hammer drops! I have not loaded or shot it yet. My concern is if I have it loaded, and rack the slide, will the hammer still drop? If so, is it only dropping into a decocked mode, or am I going to set off a round? None of my other pistols do this and it's alarming. I'm not afraid of the hammer dropping when going from fire to safe/decocked as I know that it is engineered to do so, but again I've no other guns where the hammer drops on it's own after racking the slide, whether the safety is on or off. I will not attempt to load it or choot it until I know that whats happening is kosher or not. Thanks in advance for any help you may give!!!
