I agree. I don’t object to carrying with a round in the chamber with most guns, but I don’t often do so with my S&W Shield. Don’t like the combination of no safety and a trigger pull that is neither long nor hard.
My choice. I live in a very low threat environment.
I have news for you.
There is no such thing as a safe neighborhood.
I live in a rural area, all salt of the earth farmers or children of.
Church on every corner. Until a few years ago, you did not even mow your grass on Sunday for fear of being the subject of next week’s sermon.
But there have been 5 murders since 1970 within a few miles of my house.
Now a few miles is a long way in town, but out here, a mile is next door.
Two were my second cousin and her husband.
There is no safe space.
