Just the gun I have been waiting for... Small, thin, and a manuel safety from a top notch manufacturer... I know alot of you guys don't like the manuel safety, but the thought of putting a FULLY LOADED and COCKED gun on my person with no safety, seems like an unecessary chance I don't need to take... No different than a 1911 with one in the tube, hammer pulled back, and don't bother to put the manuel safety on... Go ahead and shove it in IWB holster... Ask how many 1911 owners carry that way... If you can remember to keep your finger off the trigger, than you can remember to take off the safety... And Glock owners, please don't tell me about the 3 safeties as that gun will still go bang if you pull the trigger for any reason, but feel secure that they may work if you drop your gun...
