It makes a distinctive "clunk" when it's cocked or released, doesn't it?

Well, it's not a sound as audible as racking a pump action or even a pistol slide. There is however, a distinct sound and feel to the operator holding the gun, i.e. I would know if it's cocked or not... BTW, not sure who said earlier that "some people don't have the strength to hold the squeeze-cocker pressed back..." but that's not entirely accurate. It only takes 15 lbs. of pressure to press the squeeze-cocker all the way back - a weak adult with very poor hand-strength can still generate about 20kgs. of pressure (44 lbs.) Once the handle mechanism has been squeezed back, it only requires two pounds of pressure to keep it there. The mechanics are really well thought-out and executed... ja, zeese Germans are very smart ven it comes to vorking with ze steel!
