I understand, while I am very pro gun I don't carry 90% of the time. I have 2 small children and it scares me to death the thought of them getting a hold of my gun somehow. I mainly carry a Springfield armory XD in 9mm or if I'm feeling "really thuggy" (so Raider would say) I'll toat the 45. Neither of them have a safety it's just point and bang! Mostly they are safe Queens with the rest of the toys.
