Given the number of people who CC M1911s, I'd say we Americans embrace it a bit too much.

Oops...meant to say American military there.

Which is wierd because the requirement of a frame mounted safety is a continual requirement for service pistols. :rolleyes:

I don't see the problem with carrying condition one, in fact, I feel safer when a carry my M-1991A1 in condition one than I do with my Glock and just the DAO trigger pull as my safety.

Well the Glock trigger isn't a double action trigger nor is it really a single action trigger. But all guns of its type are advertised to be safe without a manual safety

Ah yes, the SAFE ACTION TRIGGER. :D

DA by any other name.

No argument from me.

As I said, it doesn't feel like a DA trigger because of the reset

good choice, hope they get night sights instead of the crappy stock ones though.

I wonder if on all Ministry of Defense paperwork they have to type it out correctly as GLOCK?

Sorry my inner anti-GLOCK persona is coming out in despair over the passing of the Hi-Power from front line service with a western power. Sad, sad day.

Don't worry; the Canadians will probably be holding onto their BHPs for a long time.

it's funny you mention that, the few Canadians I saw in the big sandbox all had Sigs of some sort attached to thier chest rigs.
