Frequently Asked Questions

How do you load a Glock 19 magazine?

To load a Glock 19 magazine, press down on the follower with your thumb and slide 9mm cartridges onto the feed lips, ensuring each round is seated properly behind the one below it.

What is the difference between iron sights and a red dot optic on a Glock 19?

Iron sights require aligning the front and rear sights, while a red dot optic projects a single illuminated dot onto the lens, which the shooter focuses on for aiming. Red dots are often faster to acquire.

How do you chamber a round in a Glock 19 safely?

Ensure the firearm is unloaded. Insert a loaded magazine, then firmly pull the slide to the rear and release it to chamber a round. Always maintain trigger discipline.

What is the 'shake-awake' feature on the Gideon Mediator optic?

The shake-awake feature on the Gideon Mediator automatically turns the red dot illumination on when motion is detected and turns it off after a period of inactivity to conserve battery life.
