Which one of the following statements about the Browning Hi-Power pistol’s magazine disconnector system is correct?

There is no magazine disconnect system found in the design of the Hi-Power pistol.

The magazine disconnect system is enable when the magazine is out of the magazine well, which allows the spring-loaded magazine safety to move forward. This causes the trigger connector (trigger lever) to move rearward enough so that it doesn’t make contact with the trigger bar (sear lever) if the trigger was pulled, thus preventing the gun from being fired. When the magazine is inserted back into the pistol, it pushes the magazine safety rearward, causing the trigger connector to move forward, enabling the trigger connector to make contact with the trigger bar, which enables the gun to be fired when the trigger is pulled.
