Pistol Positive Safetys

[the voice]

What other Manufacturers than Ruger and Sig Sauer do not have pistols without positive safety's :shout:?

I think he means external safety.

Exactly what do you mean by "Positive Safety"? If you mean a pistol without a manual safety, Ruger does make a pistol without a manual safety - the LCP.

The most positive safety is the operator. Don't pull the trigger, it won't go bang, unless it is broken.

I'm not sure what you are getting at, but the Sig p250 line doesn't have a safety...but it is a Loooong DAO pull.

Glocks, Springfield XD series, Sig P series (I believe their 1911s have external safeties)

Can you repeat the question in English?

I think this post might clear things up:

I just bought a Ruger LCP-CT 380 ACP and was amazed that the handgun does not have a positive safety to protect against accidental discharge. Is there a solution to this problem?

"the voice", if you want a gun with an external safety, then buy a gun with an external safety. Just about every major gun manufacturer will make some guns with external safeties and some without. Look at the damn gun before you buy it. Good day, sir.

Get a good pocket holster that covers the trigger guard.

Every manufacturer who make revolvers make pistols (semi-auto and revolver are BOTH pistols) without MANUAL safeties, keeping a finger or a foreign object off the trigger is a POSITIVE safety.

My positive safety is my right index finger

Both my FNH FNP-40 and the Beretta PX4 .40 I traded it for are DA/SA and have decockers that spring back to the fire position, no safety. This is the only type I would personally carry. Pull it out, pull the trigger. They also have firing pin blocks - the only way to get it to go off while decocked is a long, heavy DA pull. Since the gun is completely inert, even with one in the pipe, I see no issue with the weapon's "lack" of a safety, as TheVoice mentioned.

I agree with 2Awarrior, my Bersa Thunder .380 has a decocker so I load a mag, chamber a round and decock it. Now all I have to do is draw and shoot. I have a good holster which covers the trigger so I feel completely comfortable carrying this way.

Now on my Ruger SR9c which has no decocker and is striker-fire I keep my manual safety on and simply flip it off as I draw, this work fine also.

Myself I prefer a handgun with either a decocker or a manual safety. :dance3:

My EDC (during the winter) is a Sig P229 .40S&W DA/SA with a decocker and even though I dropped in a Wolff 17 lb hammer spring (stock is 24 lbs) and an SRT kit, it'd still be almost impossible for me to ND on a draw. My XDS would be hard to ND on a draw too because of the grip safety plus the trigger pull isn't exactly light. Even though I plan on getting the PRP spring kit for it (drops pill down to 4.5-5 lbs) and a recoil spring calibration kit for my P229, which would have no bearing on the trigger pull.
