Decocker

The primer is not struck while decocking. I believe they are work in a similar manner but a barrier slides up and stops the firing pin from being struck while using the decocking lever.
 
There's a few different ways it's done. Off the top of my head; Beretta tilts the firing pin, Sig never actually drops the hammer except when squeezing the trigger, and HK locks the firing pin in place.
 
The old S&W 39,59 safeties rotated a block in front of the hammer as it falls, and disengages the trigger
 
The 92A1 has a 2 piece firing pin, the decocker rotates one piece out of the alignment of the other piece. The 92A1 also has a hammer block (not 100% sure of terminology), the trigger has to be pulled to allow the firing pin to strike the primmer.
 
magic, the blood of many virgins is required to hold back the chemical reaction that results in a shot going off. If you've see the movie Cabin in the Woods, you'll understand the importance of a blood sacrifice in many of our daily affairs. When those sacrifices are forgotten or done improperly bad things, like ND/AD's happen.

Funny my sigs drop the hammer, but never hits the firing pin.
A Jericho, pulls the firing pin ahead a bit so the hammer can't hit it and also locks it in place .
But for the new guys starting up it can seem strange.
As a old target shooter with 1911's and 22 single action pistols , the first time I shot a 92, or sig?, worried the hell out of me.
 
CZ has plenty of decocker guns.

But the hammer does not fall all the way down. It leaves a small gap.

And even if it did hit the firing pin; The firing pin block would still be in place.
