In a world where self defense “experts” recommend a round in chamber with no safety the Glock is no better or worse that the variety of other weapons that fit the bill.
I have two frequently used carry weapons, on with a safety (which I use) and a Glock. I bought quality holsters for both that fully cover the trigger and feel quite safe with either.
For pocket or waste band carry without a holster, I would feel safe with neither.
I never listen to “experts” because they never are.
