You're 100% right about that. But, try and tell this to a diehard 1911 fanboy, and you will get a bunch of smack thrown back at you about how it makes it a better gun. ****! Backstrap safeties were added at the request of some retarded army general. 1911's weren't originally designed with this. And, after they give you 10 paragraphs on the benefits of backstrap safeties, just ask them why they were never used in Browning Hi-Powers.
Then, when you get done shoving the stupid, back-strap safeties (
which can be removed, and replaced with a stationary insert, by the way) go tell a Glock Fanboy to shove that stupid trigger dingus up his ***! I HATE GUNS WITH A TRIGGER DINGUS!!! I'd much prefer DA/SA or a good old fashioned lever safety to that stupid trigger dingus.
Yes, there is someone who makes a lever safety for Glocks. And, yes, you can remove the dingus. Not worth the trouble or the legal hassles.
Rant over - I need a fist full of blood pressure meds after that!!!!!!!
