Jesus, we are related. The only external safety that never fails is trigger indexed on the frame. The only internal safety required on a striker fired pistol is the drop safety.

:iagree: :cheers2:
haha we must be related somehow :smilelol5:

I suppose, but a case could be made that trigger safetys are pointless. I wouldn't want to carry a 1911 without it's safety. A lot depends on the specific gun, the method of carry, the training and a users comfort level.

Different strokes and all of that.
I suppose. my mentality is if you're carrying you should have enough trigger discipline to not be touching that trigger until you're ready to shoot. I agree trigger safety's are useless as well but with those I don't have to do something before pulling the trigger. my finger is already in the firing position when engaging the safety... I've never had a 1911, but i imagine you'd want the safety because its hammer fired?


You want the safety on a 1911 because a 1911 is a single action pistol. There are plenty of guns that are hammer fired that don’t have a safety. Sig 226,229 etc.... they are double action / single action pistols with hammers. The long double action pull is the safety. Just like a double action revovler.
Gotcha.
