[QUOTE="JEVapa, post: 3856920, member: 41176"] It's all about your knowledge of the manual of arms of your weapons and your training with them. Disengaging or removing a manual safety for say, a 1911 or an AR pretty much falls into the stupid category. The stated "delay" in flicking a safety off or on isn't noticeable by any human, even the user. If it is, you should probably go to a nursing home and not use any weapons because your turtle-like ninja moves will get you killed. Striker fired pistols still have safeties either internal or in the trigger like a Glock, or both. A Beretta 92 has a manual safety/decocker but is DA/SA and when decocked, is considered safe in a holster with the safety off. This means with a 92F, you can be as fast as a Glock guy. 1911 either gets carried old school flap holster on an empty chamber or cocked and locked. It will still be as fast as a Glock guy (C&L) [/QUOTE]
