So you found a gun that is does not specifically have a safety switch, brilliant but who cares it has another mechanism and that amounts to a big so what. There are plenty of guns that have a safety switch. The Glock operates on extreme pressure and there is a plastic stop, the point is you better know how your gun is protected from firing and many do not.
Not impressed.

I found "a" gun?
But the comedy gets better as your post goes on.....
The Glock operates on extreme pressure? The G19 comes out of the factory with a 5.5 lb trigger pull and anyone who knows anything about guns would know that 5.5 lbs is not a heavy trigger pull or "extreme pressure". We won't even get into your asinine "safety switch" terminology. The way a gun is protected from firing is keeping your finger off the trigger. Plain and simple. The fact that you're not impressed with my post is a good thing because you have absolutely no clue in this discussion. Why do you try to pretend to be in the know when you are completely clueless about this subject?
A number of companies make a gun to the M1911 standard, and a number of people even career military use it and prefer it. Its reliable, has a nice weighty feel to it, you can get it or have it modified to use 38, 44 and 7.62 mm small arms ammo, is not to difficult to make it fully automatic you can buy kits) and you usually stick with a gun you are used to and probably learned to shoot with growing up. Lastly it can be tuned up to be very accurate for target shooting and you can get a laser target designator for it.
If you think not knowing about guns on the left is scary , what do you think of a leftist who is a NRA member (I like reading parts of the American Rifleman mag.) and got the BSA Marksmanship (to get this you need to take the NRA Junior Marksmanship course) merit badge 46 years ago.

I know there is a difference and guess what I have heard people use the terms interchangeably many many times, even fellow soldiers. You are being far too picky, me thinks it is just argueing to be argueing.

Please point me to these kits. I don't plan on buying one but I would like for you to prove your point on easy access.
Back when I carried a Colt .45 pistol I kept it "cocked and locked" with the thumb safety on and a round in the chamber and a replacement in the magazine. That pistol also has a grip safety that prevents it from firing if it is not being held in a firm grip. If I had to use it I most likely would not have had the time to load a round by cycling the slide.
