What is the actual difference in safety between a Glock and a Sig P-series
Poast new message in this thread
Date: May 26th, 2018 1:24 PM Author: motley opaque brunch The Glock has various "safeties" (consisting of an external integrated trigger safety and two automatic internal safeties: a firing pin safety, and a drop safety) which do nothing to prevent an accidental discharge irl. Internet fanboys will tell you that it has a "safe action system" and that, "the fuckin' safety is between your ears, n00b." The Sig with the hammer cocked has about a 1 lb. lighter pull and is otherwise just as safe/unsafe to carry as a Glock as far as I can tell. Both are drop-safe (everything sold new in 2018 is drop-safe), and both will go BANG if you pull the trigger. The Glock just has a useless tab hanging next to the trigger which realistically does nothing but MIGHT stop it from going off if something happens to grab the 1.25mm where it does not cover the trigger (maybe if it hung further forward, at say a 45 degree angle, it would be more useful?)
Still, the conventional wisdom among internet gunmos (proles with penises <7") is that carrying a Sig or a 1911 or a Beretta in CONDITION ZERO violates the manual of arms and is a bad idea, and indicative of stupidity. Meanwhile they think nothing of carrying a Glock in their pocket or inside their 42" waistbands, let alone with their GHOST trigger kit, lowering the trigger pull to ~3.5 lbs,0( making it far less safe than a condition zero 1911 which no one would ever carry in such a manner)
Open-carrying a Glock seems like it would be OKAY, like for a police officer or what have you, but the existence of the Glock 42, which can be pocket-carried and cannot be had with a manual safety, seems preposterous. Libs don't know how this shit works but if they did, there would be laws about the trigger weight on a carry piece with no manual safety. |

Date: May 26th, 2018 1:32 PM Author: motley opaque brunch I was looking into the PPQ which has a FULLY COCKED STRIKER with no manual safety, making for a very CRISP trigger pull with a short reset. Take the un-safeness of the Glock and multiply it by 1.25x for this reason imo. And because gunmos just want to shoot things and libs have no idea what's going on, no one thinks anything of bubba carrying the thing in CONDITION ZERO inside his belt, where it could snag on anything at any time if the Chinese-made holster decides to cease covering the trigger for a second.

Date: July 15th, 2018 7:30 PM Author: razzle-dazzle mahogany nowag if you need a safety besides your pecker puller you're an irredeemable fag. i love my glock .45 and the sig .45 obviously has the better grip but the recoil throws off your next shot compared to the easy return on the longer glock.

Date: July 15th, 2018 7:42 PM Author: motley opaque brunch People have accidental discharges all the time though. Like I have no idea how but it happens, e.g. cops/military. People like you just say, "THE SAFETY'S BETWEEN YOUR FUCKIN' EARS!!" and then give themselves a pat on the back and stroke their neckbeards. DA/SA is probably far safer than striker-fired (basically DA with a lighter pull) based on whatever empirical data exist but that does nothing to convince anyone of anything.

Date: July 15th, 2018 8:06 PM Author: razzle-dazzle mahogany nowag i don't know anyone who's discharged a glock on accident. lots of people in american military handled an m16 for one week and never fired anything again. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3987061&forum_id=2#36432748) |

Date: July 15th, 2018 8:09 PM Author: Startling Bawdyhouse Corn Cake plenty of people have shot themselves in the leg because they carried in a shitty leather holster that folded into the trigger and pulled it while reholstering.

Kydex alleviates some of the risk, but not all of it. DA/SA is my preferred trigger but while I do carry an M&P Shield, it's the version with a thumb safety and I leave it on. |

Even in america, the worst country in the world, most cops go their entire careers without needing to draw their gun. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3987061&forum_id=2#36432785) |
