I have both. I like both. But the only time i use the safety is when im carrying a 1911 cocked.
I it it just the "I meant to fire but forgot to release the manual safety" on my pistol that is the objection to having one on your pistol?
Is a person less of a shorter or some kind of wimp if he/she elected to buy a gun with one?
I finally picked up a P-365 with a safety and couldn't be more pleased.
Given the odds of actual use for self-defense verses the likely hood of an AD, an extra layer of protection seems like a non brainer.
No sir, I don't think so - at least I don't remember folks getting as worked up over other folks' pistol choices before internet usage became so widespread. Maybe that's because there just weren't as many pistols, or pistol types to choose from back in the pre-internet dark ages though. I mean, Glocks (and other polymer pistols) just weren't around until the 80s, and internet use didn't become widespread until the '90s.Serious question. Did people get as worked up about folks' pistol choices pre internet as they do on these forums?
True. Unfortunately, only a tiny minority of gun owners are trained and experienced, or have any genuine desire to get that way.Manual thumb safety, no manual thumb safety? Not an issue for trained, experienced shooters.
Absolutely. I think that says it all.Depends on the gun.
Usually carried hammer down. So the thumb safety isn’t an issue since it can’t be applied with the hammer down and thus doesn’t enter the manual of arms.Strange that the 1911 was used throughout many wars.
