    I like the thumb safety on the M17. I will have to pass on this one

    Flat trigger and no safety? Hard pass. Kinda defeats what I like about the M17/M18.
    It's f*****g great, putting holes in people, all the time, and it just puts 'em down mate, they drop like sacks of s**t when they go down with this.

    Who wants a safety on a striker? My number one requirement for a carry gun is that all you have to do is pull the trigger, Jigger!

    I carry a 365XL with the thumb safety. Fantastic gun. I learned to shoot with a 1911. Never found the TS to be a problem. Makes me less nervous when I reholster

    The P320 platform is the only striker fired gun I’d want a manual safety in. I had an AD with my P320 carry. I don’t really talk about it because nobody believes me when I say my finger was nowhere near that trigger. When I bring it up all I get is, “Well, you musta done something”. And 99 times out of the 100 you’d be right. I had just unholstered it, laid it on my desk and boom. Sent it to Sig…..clean bill of health. I sold it with full disclosure.

    I’ve been handling and shooting pistols for 40 years…..I have had two ADs during that time that were absolutely my fault. I can admit when I **** up. I didn’t give ANY credence to the stories going around about the P320 being unsafe. They all musta done something. Then it happened to me.

    I really like the pistol though…..and I would consider buying another…..WITH a manual safety.

    Stay safe

    I guess you get an RDS though.
