I can't speak much to the Glock 26 vs 36. I've only shot the 26 and ended up buying the M&P40c. But for a holster I'd absolutely recommend the Comp-tac MTAC. Works great with the glock 26 size guns.
As the other guys have said finger off the trigger and a good holster.
If you really feel more comfortable with a manual safety you could get an M&P with the thumb safety.
The performance of 9mm to .40 is about the same as .40 to .45. But with 9mm to .40 you lose two rounds of capacity, and from .40 to .45 you lose 5 rounds(in my platform of choice). I shoot both 9mm and .40 about equally so to me .40's the perfect compromise in power vs. capacity.
I'm an M&P guy, and would absolutely recommend one, but I also argue that the polymer pistols should be treated as a platform. By getting the Glock 17, you would already be familiar with the fit and function of the gun and also be able to use the same holsters and magazines(17 mags work in the 19).
HK? Hi-power? If you go with another polymer I wouldn't get a glock or XD. Both are fine pistols but they are just to similar to the m&p. I just treat the polymers as a platform. You already have a couple m&p's, if you got a M&P40 FS you would have the advantage of interchangeable...
Eh maybe not for you, but if It was my I'd get an m&p40 pro 5" barrel(I'd probably add apex parts down line, just really want the 5" barrel). If you don't want .40s&w you could do an m&p9 pro 5" barrel.
:banghead: Or just use a holster. You shouldn't be carrying any gun(manual safety or not) in your waistband, loose in your pocket, or loose in a purse/bag. The gun needs to be secure, safe, and in the position you need it to be at all times.
It's a handgun. Not rifle. I've seen the same stories with .40s&w & .45acp Shot placement is key. If you don't hit the central nervous system odds are it's not going to immediately incapacitate the target. If you don't knock out the central nervous system, and he still has the will to keep...
