Saf-T-Blok RH Post '98 **Read Fit Description**

First about the product: Works as designed. Seats securely behind the trigger and snaps out with minimal pressure. It juts out a tad so as your trigger finger is sliding towards the trigger, it's simple to give it a push and keep on keeping on. Previous reviews have mentioned that it goes flying when ejected. Absolutely true. I slapped some red nail polish (it's all black plastic) on it so it's easier to spot and retrieve when practicing.Now about the optimal CC profile: The goal is to draw and fire accurately, no matter what position your are in physically, within 1.5 seconds once your brain housing group screams, "Go!", yes? I've been hunting the product to meet the goal and add simplicity and flexibility not matter what I'm wearing or where I need to wear it. Smart Carry, Belly Band, shoulder holsters, undergarment holsters, IWBs, OWBs...been there. All have positives and negatives.With all that said, the one that fulfills my goal sweetly is the Clipdraw. No muss, no fuss, (almost) no extra pieces of wardrobe. I can wear "it" like an IWB on my hip (my preference) or belly band style both strong side and cross draw, or, add a small velcro strap and I can ankle carry. If I need to carry small of the back PI style or cross draw in a jacket pocket, it takes 5 minutes to reverse the clip and I'm good to go.Now, as you know, to fire in 1.5 secs you have to have one in the pipe. Otherwise, your engaging a firefight at a big disadvantage with a semi-auto and won't meet the goal.This product alleviates the worry out of +1. G36, Clipdraw, Saf-T-Blok = I'm good to go.One last...PPOMP...perfect practice often makes perfect. Anything less and you're dead wrong.

Product found at decent price, transaction was seamless as was the shipping/delivery time. Product itself fit like a glove. Seller was very articulate as to pre and post 1998 product difference to assure buyer you’re getting the correct fitting item. Well made, simple, easy to use and apply product.

Although it can be used with very snug fitting holster, Some folks may not like it when the Saf-T-Blok will automatically fall out when the weapon is drawn. This happens because the horizontal part that fits behind the trigger stands proud. The purpose of the Saf-T-Blok is to prevent something that gets in front of the trigger/safety blade from accidently firing the weapon. In example, when re-holstering in a IWB holster; your shirt gets jammed in front of the trigger/safety blade and fires the weapon. Note that your trigger finger easily pushes out the safety in a fraction of second when you are preparing to shoot.For my own benefit, I had modified it to where the horizontal end is flush with the trigger guard. I then always have it installed when I carry. It works perfectly for me in that manner. I include this only as a matter of information. Not as a suggestion. I feel that I need that extra bit of safety because for 50 years I have always been a 1911 person with the use of a manual safety. Lastly, you would void any warranty if it is modified in any way.

My Glock 27 is a great concealed carry weapon. But it has one feature that I've never been entirely comfortable with, and that is the "trigger safety."I understand the advantage of combining the trigger and the safety so that one is not endangered by forgetting, in the heat of a confrontation, to disengage an external safety. On the other hand, there is at least some conceptual problem in being able to disengage the safety and release the trigger with the same motion. Exactly how does that fit the definition of a "safety"? And, yes, there have been instances of people shooting themselves in the foot or thigh by not exercising sufficient care in holstering the weapon. It strikes me as an inadequate comment on these instances to say that more care should have been taken. Granted that one should always be so careful that a mechanical safety is redundant, still there is a reason why we think mechanical safeties should be available to, and used by, even very careful people.With the Glock trigger safety there are some things that can be done to the trigger that will not cause a discharge. One would like to say that only a full finger on the trigger will fire the gun, but there are things other than a full finger on the trigger that can cause the gun to fire (think of something pressing an ear of the holster into the trigger guard). If there were an external safety engaged, nothing done with the trigger -- accidental or deliberate -- could cause the gun to fire. Is there a way for a Glock to offer the additional security of an external safety?The Saf-T-Blok is my preferred solution. It simply blocks the movement of the trigger so long as it is in place, but it is very quickly and easily dislodged when need arises. All that has to be done is to slide the finger forward over the end of the Saf-T-Blok. I find that it usually is dislodged simply by putting my finger alongside the trigger guard in preparing to fire, even before my finger touches the trigger. The adjustment screw allows you to find the right balance between easily dislodging the device yet not having it fall out accidentally.Another solution is available. There is a device called the Sliderlock that replaces the OEM trigger with an assembly that includes a sliding button in back of the safety lever. When the button is out, the safety and therefore the trigger cannot be moved. The button need only be pressed to move aside the bar that secures the safety. This device has the advantage that you won't lose it. I lost my first Saf-T-Blok when I didn't remove it before my wife practiced with the weapon at the range. She managed to pop it out and i couldn't find it. That won't happen with the Sliderblock. On the other hand, installation of the Sliderblock requires disassembly of the gun far beyond field stripping. There are videos on the internet that show how to do it, but though I have done a small amount of gunsmithing I would have some trepidation tackling that job. Saf-T-Blok, on the other hand, requires no modification to the weapon at all. The only thing you need do is adjust the tension screw with the included Allen wrench.Oh, and the Sliderlock is about four times the price of the Saf-T-Blok.I won't utter a word against those who are happy with the Glock trigger safety and believe that anything added is a serious mistake. What matters is the conditions in which you carry and use your weapon and what you are most comfortable with. For me, in my experience, for the way I carry my gun, the extra security of the Saf-T-Blok is very welcome. Absolutely, I would not be without it.
