Disconnector, Striker Safety Lock corresponds to which designation?

• A. M17/M18 Applied Safety
• B. M17/M18 Locking System
• C. M17/M18 PPF
• D. Recoil W/Gas Assist, Auto Only

Answer: (C)

In the M17/M18 parts designation system, items are grouped by platform and frame type. PPF stands for Pistol Polymer Frame, the designation used for components that belong to the polymer-frame version of the M17/M18 pistol’s fire-control assembly. The Disconnector, Striker Safety Lock is an internal fire-control part located in the polymer-frame pistol, so its official designation is M17/M18 PPF. This differs from other designations that describe different subsystems, such as safety devices (Applied Safety), the barrel/locking mechanism (Locking System), or the recoil/operating system (Recoil W/Gas Assist, Auto Only).
