"In God,Glock, and my Finger I Trust"



  Same with my Glock. I use my Finger as the Safety. (Which also defeats the Trigger Safety.) We have enough to think about before pulling a Trigger. Why complicate matters with Buttons or switches? (A reason I don't use a Laser either)

  i love the condition system, i dont carry a 1911.......i carry a pt-92 but if i were to use the system. my weapon is always condition "0" .......i have a internal firing pin safety, so unless i pull a 5lb trigger almost 2" back........it dont go bang lol but if i need to i dont have to worry about safties , i just pull the trigger :-p SA/DA is awesome :-D

  On a 1911, is there a Hammer Safety that prevents discharge if the Trigger is not pulled? IE: Walther, Glock, Revolvers etc.
The reason I ask is I don't like a Gun that makes any noise before you get to pull the Trigger, Like Racking or cocking first. They are recognizable noises that could get you killed, and takes more time.
