question about the new glidelock

have a question about the new glidelock, can it adjust on the wrist once it is shut. to say if it is set and on and gets a bump can it tighten around the wrist?

I don't have the glide lock, but logistics would lead me to say no.

The DSSD version can be adjusted while on the wrist but couldn't be done by mistake as it requires the latch to be pulled up then adjusted.

The Sub-C has to be taken off the wrist to adjust so again cannot be adjusted by mistake.

Sorry not the best explanation but hope you get the gist !

thanks

no that answers the question, just wondering if it was like a handcuff that could get tighter or if it locked once it was buckled

I figured one could get into very dangerous predicaments if it were like a handcuff.
