That stuff is all fine and good, but just because you follow it doesn't mean a lot. If I could guarantee my gun would never be touched by anyone but me, I'd agree with that line of thinking. I just know I cannot do that. If everyone was safe, there'd be no safeties on any guns.

Very true. And I am in no way against having a safety on a pistol, as long as it's big enough to manipulate in a stressful situation.

My last carry gun had a safety, and I was fine with it.

Now I carry an M&P which has a longer and heavier trigger pull, so I feel comfortable not having a safety.

Most revolvers don't have safeties(I can't think of any that have one). Why should some automatics have them?

I think S&W did it best by making the same gun with an option of a safety, and they made the safety big enough to manipulate in a stressful situation.
