Is the glock 17 gen 4 only double action or can it come in the double action single action version too?
The Glocks are striker fired pistols, not DA... there is no SA option, because the design of a striker fired pistol doesn't use a hammer, and it cannot facilitate such an action.
Does the glock 17 gen 4 only come in double action or can it come in the double action single action version too?
It only comes as a striker fired pistol - the design cannot accommodate a SA-type action (and the existing action isn't DA, to that end, as the striker fired mechanic is much different from a hammer fired mechanism).
Does the Slide and Barrel assembly serve as the support for all major components and controls the action of the pistol?
NoSlide and Barrel Assembly: Houses the firing pin, striker, and extractor. Cocks the hammer during recoil cycle.Receiver: Serves as a support for all the major components. Houses action of the pistol through four major components. Controls functioning of the pistol.
Is Glock a single action pistol?
Glock describes their action design as "safe-action," and it has characteristics of both single- and double-action designs. Like a single-action, chambering a round sets the striker (firing pin) mechanism, but like a double-action that striker is pulled back farther by pulling the trigger. The idea behind the design was to have a shorter and lighter trigger pull than a DA gun, but not to have a fully cocked striker ready to fall like a SA gun, without requiring a manual safety like SA guns.

What is the decocking lever in a semiautomatic pistol?
Often with a semiautomatic pistol, once a loaded magazine is inserted and the slide racked, you now have a pistol that is ready to fire: there is a fresh round in the chamber, the hammer (or striker) is cocked. This CAN be a dangerous situation, if the shooter isn't going to fire the weapon immediately. In the past, a person would have to CAREFULLY lower the hammer while pointing the pistol in a safe direction. If they slipped, they would fire a bullet accidentally AND their thumb would get hurt--mashed by the recoiling slide & hammer. A decocking lever prevents such accidents by LOWERING the cocked hammer to a safe position. Once utilized, if the shooter wanted to prepare the pistol for firing, they would have to: Manually recock the hammer, if the pistol were a single action only type, or, manually recock, or utilize the pistol's long Double Action trigger, if the pistol was a Double Action/Single Action type.
When was the last savage pistol produced?
"Pistol" is used to refer to revolvers, semi-automatics, or muzzle-loading/cap-&-ball handguns. Savage has made several types of pistols over the years, including semi-automatic and single shot pistols. Savage continues to make the "Striker" single shot bolt-action hunting / target pistol. If you are referring to Savage's famous semi-automatic pistols made in the early 20th century, they were made as follows: model 1907, .32 caliber -- 1908-1920 model 1907, .380 caliber -- 1913-1920 model 1915, .32 caliber -- 1915-1916 (the "hammerless" model) model 1915, .380 caliber -- 1915-1917 (the "hammerless" model) model 1917, .32 caliber -- 1920-1926 (replaced the model 1907) model 1917, .380 caliber -- 1920-1928 (replaced themodel 1907) Savage also made prototype .45 and .25 semi-automatics during this period, but these never entered production. In the 1960s, Savage made single shot "western" .22 pistol (the model 101) that looked like a revolver; this was discontinued about 1968.
Can a savage striker pistol stock be replaced with a full length rifle stock?
Since the Striker pistol is based on the same bolt actions Savage uses in it's rifles, it probably can fit in the rifle stock, but may require some minor modification to the stock. That being said, what you would then have would be illegal under federal law. You can't put a rifle stock on a firearm w/ a barrel shorter than 16" . You would have to go thru a lengthy process apply to the BATF for a permit and pay a tax to own the weapon. You'd go thru the same process as buying a fully automatic weapon or a silencer.
