In ready to fire mode, the Glock does not require ANYTHING other then the trigger to be depressed.

The 1911 does. The grip safety must also be depressed.

It isn't just my conclusion. That is a fact.

The fact that some people may never discharge a Glock, because they are careful, does not change the physical requirements of these two firearms to go BANG!

Aren't those the exact same facts that I stated? Go back and look at my posts.

I told you I'm not argueing with you about it. AD's are strictly caused by the user of the weapon. For whatever reason.

I should say some would never discharge a Glock, or any gun accidently, because they are careful.

But, there is the lack of that one extra safety on the Glock. You cannont deny it. It has nothing to do with human error. You could discharge either with human error. But, the 1911 requires TWO human errors vesus the Glock, which requires only one.

Humans of course, will never err. NOT!

Once again, the 1911 is safer then a Glock.
