What happens when you pull a shotgun trigger with no cartridge in it?

Probably nothing initially for a few times, but if you repeatedly do this, you may eventually wear out the spring that activates the firing pin or have the firing pin release too far out. There are devices called "snap caps" that fit into the chamber of the barrel and allow you to pull the trigger and release the firing pin into a small spring loaded portion of the snap cap. This is the best way to store your shotgun, with a snap cap in place and the trigger pulled releasing the firing pin into it.

Does a glock have safety?
Yes and no. The Glock does not have an external safety that is operated by the shooter. The safety mechanisms are controlled by the trigger, and function when the trigger is pulled. If the trigger is NOT pulled, the safety mechanisms prevent the firing pin from moving forward and striking the cartridge. However, if a Glock has a cartridge chambered, AND you pull the trigger, the gun WILL fire.
