Glad you're OK, but if you chose to live in the cesspool that is NYC, you reap the benefits - including the benefit of politicians who will not allow you to arm yourself to be able to defend yourself against the whackjobs like this that roam the streets.
What model of 9mm doesn't have a safety and how did you detect that from observation? I assume the police did not let you inspect the weapon....

"What model of 9mm doesn't have a safety and how did you detect that from observation? I assume the police did not let you inspect the weapon...." Police told me - they were a little freaked out and I think were trying to find a way of conveying the seriousness of the situation - apparently they take 9 Mil's more seriously than a run of the mill .22 or .25 which they see everyday and think of as standard bad guy issue.
I don't know much about handguns but the police said that many 9 Mil's don't have safetys - including (interestingly) the Glocks carried by NYC Cops

"What model of 9mm doesn't have a safety..." I believe Kel-tec makes a 9mm double-action that has no safety. I have a Kel-tec .32 auto double action that has no safety. I always have one in the chamber. Double action autos are very safe. It's nice knowing you don't have to fumble around with a safety, just point and shoot.

FYI Tokarev 9mm has no safety.
