1. when you hit the safety decock, it fully decocks to DA. If you use the lever there is a block in place of the firing pin.
2. Automatic safety will NOT be active. Note, when you squeeze the trigger and the safety is off, the gun is in fire mode. When you use the decock lever, it actually rotates a sere block and blocks the firing pin from being hit by the hammer at all.

in response to the "irresponsible to carry the 92FS cocked":
It's actually close to the preferred combat carry technique of the military, (round chambered, pistol off safe). I understand this is not correct by the book, but this way a round is ready to go, and you don't have to fingerdrill the safeties, which are cumbersome and awkward when the adrenaline is pumping.
