[QUOTE="OK Corgi Rancher, post: 3806489, member: 45773"] If it doesn't feel right to you, OK. If you don't like the looks, OK. But if you don't trust a Glock because it doesn't have a "real" safety then honestly you don't understand how they work. It's not even up for debate. A Glock not only won't fire unless the trigger is pulled, it can't fire unless the trigger is pulled. The trigger must be moved to the rear, one way or another, in order for the gun to fire. Are there better ways than others to carry a Glock because of that? Yes. Do you need to do your part as the operator? Yes. But that's true of all guns. If you just don't like guns without manual safeties, that's fine. But there's no legitimate reason not to trust a Glock because it doesn't have a manual safety. None. If you don't understand why I say that then, again, you don't understand the mechanics of Glock pistols. And like Honey Badger said... Glocks can be had for the price of some Taurus or much lesser quality gun. They're not that expensive. I still see them new, on sale at times, for $499 for a Gen 3. They were selling for that 20 years ago. And I'm just gonna say this... OK. You don't like ARs. I get it. I don't know when you had such a bad experience with the one you say failed you. But your arguments against them in terms of function and reliability haven't been valid for probably 40 years or longer. Again...you don't have to like them. I get that. Ford vs Chevy, Coke vs Pepsi...to each his own. But to say they aren't reliable just proves you don't really know anything about the modern AR rifle. Sorry...but that's the truth. [/QUOTE]
