[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 954743, member: 1132"] As a safety/range officer, I can't tell you the number of times I've seen shooters draw their manual safety equipped pistol and not get the gun to go bang on command. There's usually a preganant pause before they figure out that they either didn't get the safety lever to the full off position, or didn't get a grip safety engaged far enough. I'm a fairly good shooter and it's even happened to me before. For self defense, I like the KISS principle. Self defense guns that go bang with nothing more than a press of the trigger are the way to go IMO. [/QUOTE]
