Handgun Concealed Carry, External Saftey or No External Saftey?
As for teh High Points Jason has one in .45 and says it would be better suted as a club then a gun.... I've no perdonally shot it though but he HATES it. I used to have a Bersa Mini Firestorm in .40cal and I loved it, tad heavy but a great gun for the price.

as will any revolver out there, besides... whats your loaded gun doing in protected around a kid? A saftey is no replacment for general gun saftey and common sence. I expect that kinda thinking from some others around here but I think you have more common sence then that.

The bottom line is like everything else its what you want, the taurus I carry now and the Bersa I used to own both have external safties, but I never use them so its no big deal to me for a Glock to not have an external saftey, the other three safties it has are sufficent to ease my mind. My gun stays in the holster (wear the trigger is gaurded) and if it comes out it will be to shoot something and I dont want to be in teh ER or teh morge becasue I took to long to get teh saftey off or forgot it all together.
Steph on the other hand has a Walther PK380 and choses to use teh saftey. Thats her choice.

give me an instance where any G U N trigger can be pulled without a finger on it problem is when SHTF, most people get a rush & their instincts is to grab their gun, & their fingers goes for the trigger Nice to have a MANUEL thumb safety

With a thumb safety, as you grab your gun, your thumb will be on the safety, there is N O lost of time when you need to shoot

You said that in a SHTF situation some peoples instinct is to grab teh gun and shoot... then in the next sentence said that naturally when you grab your gun you sweep the saftey, (which is lost on me because I dont hold any of my guns with a grip on the saftey, but thats my shooting style) Also if you draw your gun on someone you shoot them, this aint the movies were you point a gun, tell the bad guy to drop his gun and kick it to you as you get teh pretty girl, if a guy is willing to take something to the level that you need your gun then they will not hesitate to shoot you when they see you too have a gun, and if your dumb enough to point a gun at a bad guy with the saftey on and your finger not on teh trigger then you gonna be really upset when you get your *** handed to you. For range use yes a saftey and finger off the trigger is priorty. For self defence, thats out teh window, if your gonna draw down on someone you need to be 100% ready to shoot to kill, mentally, legally, and physically.
