[Yo-Yo]

Lots of guns are now unsafe since popular consensus was that a manual safety was no longer needed. The “Just keep your damned finger off the f***** trigger!” crowd started making guns.

I don't have an issue with modern striker fired pistols with at least a 4 1/2 lb trigger pull not having a safety.

But I'd never carry a 1911 with a 2 1/2 lb trigger without having a safety.

Revolvers with a 10+ lb double action trigger pull weren't a problem (except for the Barneys of the world...)

But to your point, some informal studies have shown that if an officer loses control of his weapon, if the firearm has a safety then it takes longer for the perp to figure out how to fire it.

“4 1/2 lb trigger pull”

That’s a light pull actually. When a holster presses on the trigger, that is easy to actuate the trigger by pushing on the gun. It is one of the reasons for some of the holstered discharges.
