M&P9 safety or not?

Thanks for the replies. I don't doubt that it's an inherently safe weapon that doesn't need a safety. I guess what I was asking was more along the lines of muscle memory/familiarity.

My 1911's have safeties and a part of making that system ready to fire is snicking off the safety - each and every time I draw.

I'm sensing though, there is no reason to get another model with a safety, then, even though the only semi I carry and shoot has one ... am I making sense?

Yes you are. It makes sense in a training sort of way. You can always get the safety version but, you don't have to use it.....but its there if you do. Know what I mean?

Perfect. I don't understand the "safety thing". I don't practice drawing my 1911's while flicking the safety since when I holster I flip the safety up.
Sequence....Holster 1911, safety up(click), walk about my day. Thumb rides on it to shoot anyway.

Order canceled. If you ever have the occasion to buy a gun online from BOTACH ... you might want to pass

The hunt for a full size 9mm is back on!

Thanks

. Had I stuck with B*****H it would have been delivered for $386 (yup, that's how ticked off I was to cancel a deal like that) but with Black Friday around the corner, I think I'll wait and see about super sales. I do believe my next gun will be one of these or a G19 - pretty much whichever one I find a better deal on.
