If you are turning off your safety going into a situation you know you need your gun. You should not be going into that situation.



Well duh. Generally speaking, I mean areas which are more likely to have more people.

Actually, I keep it off 75% of the time when I'm carrying. But if it's in the house, the safety's on. And if we're walking in our favorite park, which is in the middle of an extremely affluent and safe area, then the safety is on.

See that causes inconsistency which greatly increases your chances of making a mistake thinking it's on when it's not or thinking it's off when it's on which makes it all the more likely for an accident or for you to mess up when under stress

Restating but there is no need for a safety on these kinds of guns.

Also if you are relying on your safety as a precaution for children(not saying you are) that's an even bigger problem.

With a gun like a shield not having a safety takes away all of those mental crutches and leaves you with the fact that the gun will not go off unless you pull the trigger.
